The thermometers described here are suitable for temperature measurement in industrial
applications.
Depending on design, these thermometers can be mounted directly into the process or
within a thermowell. The designs of the thermowells can be selected as desired, but the
operational process data (temperature, pressure, density and flow rate) must be taken into
account.
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 must be observed.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for claims of any type based on operation contrary to
the intended use.

3.3 Responsibility of the operator
