1 Introduction
1.1 Intended Use
The TF temperature sensors are used to monitor temperatures inside a tank.
The TF temperature sensors can also be used in piping and cooling matrices. In this case the tube is located inside the tank. Ac-
cording to EN 60079-11, the TF series temperature sensors are simple electrical apparatuses without separate voltage source in-
tended for tank top installation. The temperature sensors must not be used in highly flammable or corrosive liquids. Before in-
stalling the temperature sensors, verify the listed technical data meet the application parameters. Also observe the applicable
requirements of EN60079-14. Further check if all contents are complete. Observe the specific values of the temperature sensors
when establishing the connection.
1.2 Layout and Functionality
Type TF temperature sensors use a Pt100 temperature sensor to generate a temperature-dependent resistance signal. The Pt100
sensor is installed at the lowest point of the sensor tube to always ensure sufficient contact with the medium being measured.
The electronics of the TF temperature sensor converts this resistance signal into a digital IO-Link signal.

4 Installation and connection
4.1 Installation
The temperature sensor comes fully assembled and can be mounted to the tank with a screw fitting and seal. Please be sure to
leave enough space between the tank wall and add-ons. The maximum torque of the screw-in thread is 25Nm. When installing,
be sure the sealing face is clean and even. Only screw the temperature sensor into the designated thread. Sealed with an elastic
sealing ring. No other sealants required.
4.2 Electrical Connections
Electricity is supplied via plug connectors. Please refer to the appendix for installation dimensions, nominal voltage and plug
configuration. The switching outputs are PNP transistors. The level- and temperature sensor is powered with 18-30V direct
voltage. The sensor connects with a cable and standard M12 plug-in connectors.

5 Operation and control
NOTICE
The device must not be operated beyond its specifications.
Version with IO-Link interface
This unit is equipped with an IO-Link interface, which require an IO-Link master.
The IO-Link interface allows direct access to process and diagnostics data, and allows configuring the unit during operation.
The IODDs required to configure the unit is available at https://ioddfinder.io-link.com/.
If the IO-Link interface is not being used (no master or only used to parametrise), the temperature sensor functions as a regular
temperature sensor with 2 switching outputs. The default parameters and switching function of the switching outputs, how-
ever, can be parametrised via IO-Link master.
