Legal regulations and standards:
Laws, regulations and technical standards referring to occupational safety must be followed during
installation.
Electrical connection of the detector may only be carried out by a competent person with electrician
qualification who is familiarized with the "Instruction Manual" in detail.
The Instruction Manual is part of the product and it is necessary to keep it for the entire service life of
the product.
The Instruction Manual must be transferred to any other owner or user of the product.
Application:
The temperature sensors TG8 are designed for measuring temperatures of gaseous and liquid
substances. The temperature range for application of the sensor is – 50°C to 200 °C and it must not be
exceeded even for a short term. The sensors may be used for all control systems compatible with the
Pt 1000 temperature sensor with a temperature coefficient of 3850 ppm / °C. The temperature sensors
are designed for universal application. The sensors in combination with JTG8 thermowell can be used for
measuring temperatures in piping and simultaneously as pressure equipment in terms of Government
Order No. 26/2003 Coll. as amended, in which the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/ES is
implemented. The sensors are intended for operation in chemically non-aggressive environments.
Sensor description:
The sensor consists of a metallic housing with the sensing element inside and a supply cable. The sensor
housing is made of stainless steel grade 17240. The sensors are connected as two-wire probes. The
supply cable has external silicone insulation and is shielded. The shielding is not connected with the
housing or with the temperature element. The length of housing can be selected from 40 to 200 mm as a
standard.
