2.1 Intended use
The model TR33 resistance thermometer is used as a general-
purpose thermometer for the measurement of temperatures from
-50 ... +150 °C or -58 ... +302 °F (without neck tube) and -50 ... +250 °C
or -58 ... +482 °F (with neck tube) in liquid and gaseous media. It can be
used for pressures up to 140 bar with 3 mm sensor diameters and up
to 270 bar with 6 mm sensor diameters, dependent on the instrument
version.
The instrument has been designed and built solely for the intended use
described here, and may only be used accordingly.
The technical specifications contained in these operating instructions
must be observed. Improper handling or operation of the instrument
outside of its technical specifications requires the instrument to be taken
out of service immediately and inspected by an authorised WIKA service
engineer.

WARNING!
Before installation, commissioning and operation, ensure
that the appropriate resistance thermometer has been
selected in terms of measuring range, design, specific
measuring conditions and appropriate wetted parts' materials
(corrosion).
Non-observance can result in serious injury and/or damage
to the equipment.
Depending on the type of application, the electrical
connection must be protected against mechanical damage.
Further important safety instructions can be found in the
individual chapters of these operating instructions.
