In considering the validity of a measurement,
remember that temperature-sensing devices respond
only to the temperature that they experience. It may
be considerably different from the temperature one
is attempting to measure if the sensor is of improper
size or configuration, or if the sensor is not adequately
coupled thermally to the media whose temperature is
being measured. The calibration procedures given below
will assure accurate and repeatable measurement of the
set points of SOR temperature switches. If the switch is
normally mounted in a thermowell, consideration should
be given to the effect this may have on the accuracy of
the switch. It is recommended that a heat transfer paste
or oil be used to thermally couple the sensing bulb to the
thermowell, both in service and during testing.

temperature being measured.
