4. Design and function
4.1 Description
The liquid-lled, closed measuring system consists of a temperature sensor, a capillary
and a Bourdon tube. The volume change as a consequence of the heat applied to the
temperature sensor, and thus the pressure change in the closed system, is transmitted
through the capillary to the Bourdon tube and then indicated on the dial by the angular
deection of the pointer shaft.
Temperature measuring instruments with micro switch (temperature controllers)
The switching disc (cam disc) connected to the pointer shaft actuates the switching
operation on the micro switch when the switch point is reached.

5. Transport, packaging and storage
5.1 Transport
Check the instrument for any damage that may have been caused by transport.
Obvious damage must be reported immediately.
5.2 Packaging
Do not remove packaging until just before mounting.
Keep the packaging as it will provide optimum protection during transport (e.g. change in
installation site, sending for repair).
GB
5.3 Storage
Permissible conditions at the place of storage:
Storage temperature: -20 ... +60 °C (DIN EN 13190) Humidity: 35 ... 85 % relative humidity (no condensation)
Avoid exposure to the following factors:
Direct sunlight or proximity to hot objects Mechanical vibration, mechanical shock (putting it down hard) Soot, vapour, dust and corrosive gases Potentially explosive environments, ammable atmospheres
Store the instrument in its original packaging in a location that fulls the conditions
listed above. If the original packaging is not available, pack and store the instrument as
described below:
1. Place the instrument along with shock-absorbent material in the packaging.
2. If stored for a prolonged period of time (more than 30 days), place a bag containing a
desiccant inside the packaging.
11472988.02 04/2013 GB/D/F/E
WIKA operating instructions expansion thermometer, model 70
Before storing the instrument (following operation), remove any residual
media. This is of particular importance if the medium is hazardous to health,
GB
6. Commissioning, operation
Please observe the following general requirements when mounting and operating the
instrument:
The scale range of the temperature control instrument should be selected so that the
maximum temperature present at the sensor does not exceed the scale range. Once
the switch point is exceeded, you should also be careful of any temperature rise that
occurs.
In operation, the instrument should not be exposed to any strong vibrations or shock
loadings.
Avoid soiling and strong uctuations of the ambient temperature. Cutting the measuring line leads to the destruction of the instrument and, thus, to a
shut-down of the electrical output signal.
e.g. caustic, toxic, carcinogenic, radioactive, etc.
Electrical connection
The terminal connections are given on the product label which is located
around the edge of the housing.
6.1 Installation conditions
Before mounting the sensor, check whether the sensor material used (specied in the
delivery note) is chemically resistant/neutral to the medium being measured. This also
applies to thermowells.
Make sure that the suitable accessories required for fastening the case of the instrument
into the panel are available.
The accessories are either tted or located in a bag fastened to the thermometer.
If possible, the entire length of the stem should be exposed to the temperature being
measured. However, at least the length of the active part that corresponds to the length
of the expansion vessel (active length).
In pipelines or other measuring points, the temperature sensor must be positioned as
far towards the ow as possible.
When using thermowells, it must be ensured that the stem does not touch the bottom of
the thermowell.

11472988.02 04/2013 GB/D/F/E
6. Commissioning, operation
Protect capillaries against bending. The smallest bending radius of the capillary should
not be less than 6 mm. Any bending or discontinuities of the capillary may result in the
failure of the instrument.
If the sensor is installed in a location which is exposed to shock and vibration, it is
essential that the capillary is coiled in several loops between the last attachment point
and the sensor, and free from tension. Any excess length must also be coiled, since
cutting would render the instrument unserviceable.
The welding or soldering of the capillary, as well as all permanent xing of the capillary,
should be avoided, since this can seriously damage the capillary and can impair the
operation of the instrument.
The dial casing must be mounted free from vibration. If necessary, it is possible to
isolate the installation from the mounting point, e.g. by installing a exible connection
line between the measuring point and the thermometer and mounting the instrument on
a suitable bracket.
If this is not possible, the following limit values must not be exceeded:
Frequency range < 150 Hz
Acceleration < 0.5 g (5 m/s
The liquid lling must be checked on a regular basis.
The liquid level must not drop below 75 % of the gauge diameter.
Heavy shocks, oscillations and vibrations lead to imprecise values, increased wear in the
transmission mechanism, and fractures on welded or soldered joints.

GB
In thermometers with built-in micro switches, the contacts can chatter as a result of
vibrations, which can lead to an increase in contact wear and a displacement in the
desired contact point.
6.2 Ambient conditions
Unless the ingress protection of the thermometer‘s housing is specically identied
in the order conrmation, the instruments must be protected from humid air and other
aggressive atmospheres.
To ensure the best measuring accuracy possible, the ambient temperature on the
indicator case should be between 0 ... 40 °C. Higher or lower ambient temperatures can
cause indication errors.

7. Indicator check / 8. Zero adjustment
7. Indicator check
Indicator checks should only be carried out in comparison with a more accurate
instrument or, if possible, with a calibrated instrument. The temperature during the check
GB
must remain constant.
Fluctuating temperatures can lead to reading errors caused by the dierent response
times of the sensors.
With thermometers without thermowells, with a full and correct insertion length, a
minimum waiting time of 5 minutes must be maintained for temperature equalisation.
Temperature checks using thermometers with sensors assembled with thermowells can,
in many cases, only result in a reference temperature at the instrument under test, due to
permanent heat dissipation caused by the thermowell. In temperature applications tted
with static checking thermometers (e.g. pipeline systems), permanent osets in reference
temperatures can also be caused by the measuring path. Ambient temperatures around
the indicator case which dier substantially from room temperature can lead to steady
indication errors with constant ambient temperatures and to varying indication errors with
uctuating ambient temperatures.
Permanent indication errors caused by the ageing of the measuring system can be
ignored, as they only account for a fraction of the indication accuracy.
8. Zero adjustment
WARNING!
Any interference with or modication to the instrument will invalidate the
warranty!
A zero adjustment may only be carried out by the manufacturer or in adequately equipped
workshops by qualied persons.
The electrical connection must only be made by qualied skilled personnel. Connection of the switch via terminal box Conductor cross-section max. 1.5 mm The terminal assignment is stated on the connection label of the thermometer

8. Zero adjustment / 9. Maintenance and cleaning
Adjusting the set pointer (with micro switch)
The adjustment of the set point is achieved using the adjustment key in the window.
The set pointers for the micro switches are freely adjustable over the full scale range. For
reasons of switching accuracy and the service life of the mechanical measuring systems,
the switch points should be between 10 % and 90 % of the measuring range.
The switch points with a xed setting to customer requirements cannot be altered
subsequently.
As a result of surface oxidation on the contact surfaces, especially with intrinsically-safe
switching (small voltages and low currents), aws that can lead to contact erosion can
arise as a result of the developed isolation resistance and with higher contact loads.
9. Maintenance and cleaning
9.1 Maintenance
These expansion thermometers are maintenance-free.
The indicator and switching function should be checked once or twice every year. To
do this, the instrument must be disconnected from the process and checked using a
temperature calibrator.
Repairs must exclusively be carried out by the manufacturer or by appropriately qualied
personnel.
9.2 Cleaning
GB
CAUTION!
Prior to cleaning, disconnect the instrument from the mains. Clean the instrument with a moist cloth (soap water). Electrical connections must not come into contact with moisture. Ensure that all parts are dry before the power is switched on again. Wash or clean the dismounted instrument before returning it, in order to
protect persons and the environment from exposure to residual media.
