3.4 Proper installation
CAUTION!
Installation, assembly, start-up and maintenance may only be performed by appropriately
trained personnel. The regional occupational health and safety directives must always be
observed.
INFORMATION!
Inspect the cartons carefully for damages or signs of rough handling. Report damage to the
carrier and to the local office of the manufacturer.
INFORMATION!
Do a check of the packing list to make sure that you have all the elements given in the order.
INFORMATION!
Look at the device nameplate to ensure that the device is delivered according to your order.
INFORMATION!
Assembly materials and tools are not part of the delivery. Use the assembly materials and tools
in compliance with the applicable occupational health and safety directives.
CAUTION!
Always store industrial temperature assemblies in a dry place protected from dust. The
permissible range for storage temperatures is -40...+70°C / -40...+176°F.
CAUTION!
Always transport industrial temperature assemblies in their original packaging. Do not expose
the devices to moisture or vibration during transport. The information that applies to storage
also applies to transport.
CAUTION!
Take the following points into consideration prior to installing the temperature assembly:
• The dimensions of the thermowell (length, diameter, wall thickness, type of tip) comply with
the requirements of the measuring point. The mechanical load as a result of flowing media,
vibration and resonances is the focus here. In addition, incorrect dimensions can lead to
measurement errors.
• The thermowell is sufficiently resistant to chemically aggressive media (refer to the generally
accessible corrosion tables). Otherwise, corrosion may occur or the medium may penetrate
into the thermowell. When in doubt, select a thermowell made from the same material as
your system.
