Applications with jumps in temperature
Extreme jumps in temperature can result in temporary measuring errors. Temperature compensation
takes effect after several minutes. Internal temperature compensation is faster the smaller the jump
in temperature and the longer the time interval involved.
For further information please contact your local Endress+Hauser Sales Center.

Devices with PTFE coated process isolating diaphragm
The non-stick coating has excellent gliding properties and is used to protect the process isolating
diaphragm against abrasive media.
NOTICE
Destruction of the device due to incorrect use of PTFE foil!
‣
The PTFE foil is designed to protect the unit against abrasion. It does not provide protection
against corrosive media.
Range of application of the PTFE foil
For the range of application of the 0.25 mm (0.01 in) PTFE foil on an AISI 316L (1.4404/1.4435)
