A false signal suppression with installed sensor is generally rec-
ommended to achieve the best possible accuracy.
Instruments for a temperature range up to +280 °C (536 °F) or up to
+450 °C (842 °F) have a distance piece between process tting and
electronics housing. Ths distance piece is used for thermal decou-
pling of the electronics against high process temperatures.
Information:
The spacer may be incorporated in the vessel insulation up to max.
50 mm (2 in). Only then is a reliable temperature decoupling guaran-
teed.

If there is a risk of the cable probe touching the vessel wall during
operation due to product movements or agitators, etc., the measuring
probe should be securely xed.
In the gravity weight there is an internal thread (M8), e.g. for an eye-
bolt (optional) - (article no. 2.1512).
Make sure that the probe cable is not completely taut. Avoid tensile
loads on the cable.
Avoid undened vessel connections, i.e. the connection must be
either grounded reliably or isolated reliably. Any undened change of
this condition can lead to measurement errors.
If there is a danger of the rod probe touching the vessel wall, then the
probe must be fastened at the bottom end.
