5.3 Warning
The T1 probe is quite fragile and it must be handled carefully. Please note that any probe damages are not
covered by the standard warranty.
The probe tip is made of silicone rubber. Although silicone is resistant to a large number of chemical
aggressors, strong acids or alkali may damage it, especially at high temperature and/or if used for extended
periods of time. Warning: Strong solvents and fuel oils can cause problems for silicone rubber.
Omega Engineering also manufactures probes that have their tips made of epoxy. Just like silicone, epoxy
resin is resistant to a large number of chemical aggressors, strong acids or alkali may damage it, especially at
high temperature and/or if used for extended periods of time.
Contact your distributor for additional chemical compatibility information.
Do not expose your probes to temperatures that are higher than specified. Permanent damage can be
caused to probes that have been exposed to temperatures that are higher than their limits.
