Ensure that there are no limitations for use of the product for the relevant applications. The owner is responsible for ensuring the fault-free operation of the de- vice.
(probe break, probe short-circuit, failure of a component in the device, error in the software, failure or impermissible value of the supply volt- age, etc.) within the permissible temperature range, the STL50Ex switches off im- mediately. The alarm contact is confirmed, the front-side ALARM LED and the background lighting of the display illuminate, and the cause of error is shown on the display in plain text.

In case of faults and errors If a fault occurs in the system, the cause must be rectified immediately. If the STL50Ex safety temperature limiter is decommissioned for this purpose, the process must be safe- guarded in another manner. If there is a device error, we request that you send the device to the factory with a brief description of the error.
