3.2 Intended use
The thermocouples described here are suitable for temperature measurement in the
plastics industry. Depending on design, they can be mounted directly into the process
or within a thermowell. The design of the thermowell can be selected as desired, but the
operational process data (temperature, pressure, density and flow rate) must be taken into
account.
The instrument is not permitted to be used in hazardous areas!
Neither repairs nor structural modifications are permitted, and any would void the
guarantee and the respective certification. The manufacturer shall not be responsible for
constructional modifications after delivery of the instruments.
The instrument has been designed and built solely for the intended use described here,
and may only be used accordingly.
The technical specifications contained in these operating instructions and the related data
sheets must be observed. Improper handling or operation of the instrument outside of its
technical specifications requires the instrument to be taken out of service immediately and
inspected by an authorised WIKA service engineer.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for claims of any type based on operation contrary to
the intended use.
