1) The values in brackets apply to special versions.These probes are manufactured using special potting compounds. Moreo-
ver, they feature cases made of stainless steel and cable glands for low-temperature ranges.
When there is a built-in transmitter and/or a digital indicator, the special conditions from
the type examination certificate (see chapter 4 „Special conditions of use (X conditions)“)
apply.
