In devices with order code ‘Extended tower length – TE3’, the
measuring medium temperature must be limited to a maximum
of 140 °C (284 °F) from an ambient temperature of
≥
65 °C
(149 °F).

20 to 70 °C (
−
4 to 158 °F)
• Optional:

Pressure ratings
The maximum permissible operating pressure is determined by
the respective process connection, the temperature of the
medium to be measured, the screws, and the gasket material.
For an overview of available pressure ratings, see
Device designs
on page 26.

Order code PR5
Maximum burst pressure 60 bar (870 psi)
Optional order code PR6 and PR7 on request
• Increased burst pressures up to 100 bar (1450 psi),
possible for nominal diameters DN 15 to 100 (½ to 4 in.).
• Increased burst pressures up to 150 bar (2175 psi),
possible for nominal diameters DN 15 to 80 (½ to 3 in.).
• Purge connections are available on request.
