TM45x1
Temperature sensor
4
3 Intended use
The unit detects the medium temperature of liquid and gaseous media.
4 Installation
CAUTION
During installation or in case of mechanical failure, high pressure or hot media can leak
from the system.
w
Risk of injury caused by pressure or burns.
u
Ensure that the system is free of pressure during installation.
u
Ensure that no media can leak at the mounting location during installation.
Sensors with process connection Clamp:
u
Secure the device with a bracket (Clamp counterpart).
4.1 Use in hygienic areas according to EHEDG
In case welded adapters are used, the food contact surface must be smooth (surface roughness
Ra < 0.8 µm) and the welding has to be done according to EHEDG Guideline 9 and 35.
The sensor is suited for CIP (clean in place) when installed correctly.
u
Observe the application limits (temperature and material resistance) according to the data
sheet.
u
Ensure that the installation of the unit in the system complies with EHEDG.
u
Use self-draining installation.
u
Only use process adapters permitted according to EHEDG with special seals required by the
EHEDG position paper.
u
For any structures in a tank, direct water jet cleaning must be possible. Cleaning of dead spaces
must be possible.
4.2 Using the welding adapter / welding thermowell
General notes on the welding operation:
u
The welding operation is to be carried out by qualified personnel according to state-of-the-art
technology.
u
Use materials and welding operations that are suitable for the housing material.
u
Keep the surfaces free from any contamination.
u
Ensure the careful preparation of the components.
