The mounting position of the electrical thermometer including thermowell should be
designed to be self-draining.
■
The mounting position must not form a draining point or cause a basin to be formed.
8.4 Cleaning in place (CIP) cleaning process
■
When cleaning from outside (“wash down”), observe the permissible temperature and
ingress protection.
■
Only use cleaning agents which are suitable for the seals used.
■
Cleaning agents must not be abrasive nor corrosively attack the materials of the wetted
parts.

between the cleaning agent and rinsing with clear water should be as low as possible.
Negative example: Cleaning with 80 °C and rinsing at +4 °C with clear water.
