■
Only use circular cross-section cables (if necessary, slightly oval in cross-section)
■
Do not twist the cable
■
Repeated opening/closing is possible; however only if necessary, as it might have a
detrimental eect on the protection class
■
For cable with a pronounced cold-ow behaviour the screw connection must be fully
tightened
6.3 Parallel threads
If the thermometer connecting head, neck tube, thermowell or process connection are
connected to parallel threads (e.g. G ½, M20 x 1,5 ...), these threads must be secured by
means of seals preventing liquids from penetrating into the thermometer.
As standard, WIKA uses copper prole seals for the connection between the neck tube
and the thermowell, and at paper seals for the connection of the connection head and the
extension neck or thermowell.
If the thermometer and the thermowell are already connected, the seals will already be
mounted. The plant operator must check whether the seals are suitable for the operating
conditions and must replace them, if necessary, with suitable seals.
For thermometers without a thermowell, and/or where these are delivered separately, the
seals are not included and must be ordered separately.
Tighten the threads by hand when carrying out the nal assembly on the plant. This will
correspond to the delivery status of the premounted components. The nal tightening torque
should be applied using a spanner (half rotation).
The seals must be replaced after dismantling!
The seals can be ordered from WIKA, indicating the WIKA order number and/or
the designation (see table).
