7.4 Measuring accuracy

The measuring accuracy depends largely on the following factors:

• The version of the measuring insert (type of sensor, type of circuit, measuring range).
• The correct dimensions (diameter, wall thickness) and insertion length of the thermowell for

good thermal coupling to the process temperature (insufficient insertion depth often results
in measurement errors).

• The type of temperature transmitter used.

With the exception of the TT 60 C/R version, all of the temperature transmitters generate an
analogue output signal. For this reason, the following table indicates the measuring accuracy of
most of the transmitters as a percentage of the measuring range:

Please consult the appropriate handbook for further information regarding the accuracy of the
