Thermocouple Position
The thermocouple(s) may be positioned anywhere in the refrigerator within the limits of their length.
For models with two thermocouples, thermocouple TC1 is used for collection of temperature data and
this should be given priority when selecting the desired monitoring point.
Typically the product will be stored in vapour phase with about 15 to 20 cm of liquid in the vessel.
The ‘worst case’ temperature for vapour phase storage is just below the lid of the refrigerator and it is
suggested that the optimum position for the thermocouple is within the sensor tube and level with
either the bottom of the lid or the top of the inventory control system.
