WARNING!
Before installation, commissioning and operation, ensure that the appropriate
thermowell has been selected in terms of design and specific measuring
conditions.
Before installation, commissioning and operation, ensure that the thermowell
material used is chemically resistant/neutral to the medium being measured and
that it withstands the mechanical stresses from the process.
Non-observance can result in serious injury and/or damage to the equipment.
Further important safety instructions can be found in the individual chapters of
these operating instructions.
2.1 Intended use
Thermowells are used to protect temperature sensors from the process conditions.
Furthermore, thermowells enable the removal of the temperature sensor without having
to shut down the process; and they guard against damage to either the environment
or to personnel, which might be caused by escaping process media.The model TW61
thermowell has been specifically developed for use in sanitary applications.
The thermowell has been designed and built solely for the intended use described here and
may only be used accordingly.
The technical specifications contained in these operating instructions must be observed.
Improper handling or operation of the instrument outside of its technical specifications
requires the instrument to be taken out of service immediately and inspected by an
authorised WIKA service engineer.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for claims of any type based on operation contrary to
the intended use.
