2.7 Ambient temperature / temperature classes
Because of the influence of the temperature of the product, no fixed temperature class is
assigned to variable area flowmeters. In fact, the temperature class of a device is a function of
the temperature of both the product and the environment. Please see the following tables for the
assignments.
The tables take into account the following parameters:
•Maximum values Pv
•Ambient temperature Tamb.
•Product temperature Tm
•Heat resistance of the connecting cable
For certain device version, lower values apply due to differing boundary conditions (e.g. lining
materials). Here the user should consult the technical data sheet.

INFORMATION!
The maximum permissible product temperatures listed in the tables are valid under
the following conditions:
•
The measuring device is installed and operated in accordance with the installation
instructions in the standard documentation.
•
It must be ensured that the flowmeter is not heated by the effects of additional heat radiation
(sunshine, neighbouring system components) and thus operated above the permissible
ambient temperature range.
•
Insulation must be limited to the piping.
Unobstructed ventilation of the indicator part must be ensured.
