Thermal insulation
In the case of some fluids, it is important that the heat radiated from the sensor to the
transmitter is kept to a minimum. A wide range of materials can be used for the required
insulation.
NOTICE
Electronics overheating on account of thermal insulation!
‣
Observe maximum permitted insulation height of the transmitter neck so that the
transmitter head is completely free.

Minimum distance to insulation
t
Insulation thickness
The minimum distance between the transmitter housing and the insulation is
10 mm (0.39 in) so that the transmitter head remains completely exposed.

NOTICE
The insulation can also be thicker than the recommended insulation thickness.
Prerequisite:
‣
The temperature at the lower end of the transmitter housing does not exceed
80 °C (176 °F)
‣
Ensure that convection takes place on a sufficiently large scale at the transmitter neck.
‣
Ensure that a sufficiently large area of the housing support remains exposed. The
uncovered part serves as a radiator and protects the electronics from overheating and
excessive cooling.
