3.6.2 Threaded thermometer
A threaded thermometer can be installed two different ways:
• Screwed in directly: Pipes with a wall thickness ≥ 20 mm / 0.8" make it possible to drill a hole
and cut a thread.
• Screw into threaded sleeves: Pipes with a wall thickness < 20 mm require a sleeve to be
welded in; these are not included in delivery but make up part of the accessories range.
3.6.3 Flange thermometer
CAUTION!
You, the user, are responsible for selecting a suitable sealing material for the process
connection, not the manufacturer! When installing the seals to the process connection, always
ensure a good fit!
CAUTION!
Sometimes even a neck tube cannot prevent the maximum permissible temperature in the
connection head from being exceeded! The connection head on thermometers without a neck
tube heats up faster than thermometers with neck tubes but you still must always take into
consideration the installation situation as well as the ambient and process temperatures!
CAUTION!
When attaching the flange, tighten the screws evenly and crosswise to avoid leaks at the process
connection.
