Please read these operating instructions before unpacking and putting the unit into operation. Follow the instructions precisely as described herein. The instruction manuals on our website www.kobold.com are always for currently manufactured version of our products. Due to technical changes, the instruction manuals available online may not always correspond to the product version you have purchased.
5. Operating Principle The change in resistance of platinum in relation to the temperature to be measured is used for temperature measurement with the KOBOLD Resistive Temperature Sensors LTS. The devices are connected electrically with 2- or 3-wire technology, depending on the input of the evaluation device and the line length.
6. Mechanical Connection The LTS temperature sensors are available with a non-hygienic G process ½ connector (R4) or alternatively with hygienic connections for food processing. Only with these process connection options M12x1.5 (M3) and G (G4), ½ combined with our hygienic LZE fittings, an EHEDG-certified dead space free monitoring point based on hygienic design principles is possible.
We recommend a minimum power supply cable cross section of 0.25 mm². Warning! Wrong electrical connections may lead to the destruction of the electronic circuit!
