10.3 Disposal
Incorrect disposal can put the environment at risk.
Dispose of instrument components and packaging materials in an environmentally
EN
compatible way and in accordance with the country-specific waste disposal regulations.
Do not dispose of with household waste. Ensure a proper disposal in
accordance with national regulations.

the thermowell
Joint width
For joint width > 0.5 mm [> 0.02 in] between thermowell
and measuring insert:
→ Negative impact on heat transfer
→ Unfavourable response behaviour of the thermometer
When fitting the measuring insert into a thermowell, it is very important
to determine the correct insertion length (= thermowell length for bottom
thicknesses of ≤ 5.5 mm [≤ 0.22 in]). In order to ensure that the measuring
insert is firmly pressed down onto the bottom of the thermowell, the insert
must be spring-loaded (spring travel: 0 ... 10 mm [0 ... 0.39 in]).
max. 10 mm [0.39 in]
max. 20 mm [0.79 in]
-40 ... +80 °C [-40 ... +176 °F]
The information on vibration resistance refers to the tip of the
measuring insert.
