iTHERM MultiSens Flex TMS01 Basic safety instructions
Condition Description
Vibrations The sensing elements can be subjected to vibrations, due to high immersion
lengths from the constraint located in the process connections. This vibrations can be minimized by properly selecting the route of the sensing element into the plant, by fixing it on internals by means of accessories like clips and end tips. The extension neck has been designed for withstanding vibratory loads to preserve the junction box from cyclic loading, and to avoid the unscrewing of the threaded components.
Mechanical stress The maximum stress on the measuring device multiplied by a safety factor is
guaranteed to stay below the yielding stress of the material, for every working condition of the plant.
External environment The junction box (with and without head transmitters), wires, cable glands and
other fittings have been selected to work within the allowed ranges in terms of external temperature.

3 Product description

3.1 Product design

The multipoint thermometer belongs to a range of modular product configuration for multipoint temperature detection with a design where subassemblies and components can be managed individually for easy maintenance and spare part ordering.
It consists of the following main sub-assemblies:
Insert: Done by a metal sheathed sensing measuring element (thermocouple or resistance), extension cables and transition bushing. Each insert can be handled as an individual spare part that is replaceable by untightening its compression fitting installed onto the process connection. They can be ordered via specific standard product order codes (e.g. TSC310, TST310) or special codes. For the specific order code please contact the Endress+Hauser service department.
Process connection: Represented by an ASME or EN flange, it might be provided with eyebolts for lifting the device.
Head: It is composed of a junction box provided with its components such as cable glands, draining valves, earth screws, terminals, head transmitters, etc.
Neck: It is designed to support the junction box by components such as supporting rods and plates or tube extension.
Additional accessories: Components that can be ordered independently from the selected product configuration, such as clips, pads, tips, spacers and plates for tag sensors.
Thermowells: They are directly welded on the process connection, designed to guarantee higher degree of mechanical protection and corrosion resistance for each sensor.
In general, the system measures the temperature profile inside the process environment by means of many sensors, jointed to a suitable process connection which ensures the right tightness levels. Externally, the extension cables are wired into the junction box, which can be directly mounted or remote as option.

The modular multipoint thermometer is characterized by the following possible main configurations:
Linear configuration The different sensors are aligned along the straight direction coinciding with the longitudinal axis of the multipoint assembly itself (linear multipoint measurement). This configuration can be used to install the multipoint either in an existing thermowell as part of the reactor or in direct contact with the process.
3D distribution configuration All the inserts, regardless of using the single insert thermowell protection or not, can be bent and arranged in a three dimensional configuration by fixing them through clips or other equivalent accessories. This configuration is commonly used to reach several measurement points distributed at different cross sections and levels. Specific support frames can be provided and installed on request if they are not already available on site.

WARNING
L
Explosions could result in death or serious injury
Do not remove the junction box cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is live.
Before connecting any additional electric and electronic device in an explosive
atmosphere, make sure the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non incendive field wiring practices. Verify that the operating atmosphere of the transmitters is consistent with the
appropriate hazardous locations certifications. All covers and threaded components must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof
requirements.
WARNING
L
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury
Do not release screwed parts while in operation. Install and tighten the fittings before
applying pressure.
NOTICE
Additional loads and vibrations from other plant components can affect the operation of the sensor elements.
Is it not allowed to apply additional loads or external moments to the system coming
from the connection with another system not foreseen from installation plan. The system is not suitable for being installed in locations where vibrations are present.
The deriving loads can undermine the sealing of the junctions and damage the operation of the sensing elements. It will be care of the final user to verify the installation of suitable devices in order to
avoid the overcoming of the admitted limits. For the environment conditions please refer to the technical data →  33
When installing in an existing thermowell, an internal inspection of the thermowell is
recommended to check if any internal load is present before starting with the insertion activities of the whole device. While installing the measurement system, avoid any friction during installation, specifically avoid sparks generation. Ensure the thermal contact between the inserts and the bottom/wall of the existing thermowell. When accessories like spacers are provided, make sure that no distortions are occurred and the original geometry and position is maintained. When the installation is performed by direct contact with the process, ensure that any
applied external loads (i.e. due to the tip fixing of the probe to any reactor internals) don't generate deformations and strains on the probe and on welds.
