The connection dimensions of the thermowell must match those of the counterpart on the
process side. Insert the thermowell into the process adapter without forcing or damaging it.
For sealing, choose appropriate seals.
For installation, the appropriate fastenings, such as screws and nuts, must be used; also
using the appropriate mounting torques and tools (e.g. open-ended spanner). The seals
