The high modular thermometer is used for several applications with harsh environments, e.g. in Power Plants, Refineries or in the Chemical or Petrochemical industry. The robust device is designed for use within an existing thermowell. With different head transmitter it's a complete unit ready for use with enhanced measurement accuracy and reliability.

The sensor assembly can be used in process industries such as:

• Chemicals

• Petrochemical

• Refineries

• Offshore Platforms

• FM/CSA XP Class I, Div. 1 approved temperature assemblies for maximum safety

• One source shopping for temperature measurement solutions. World class transmitter with integrated sensor offering for heavy process industry applications

• Remove and install straight out of the box!

• Improved galvanic isolation on most devices (2 kV)

• Simplified model structure: Competitively priced, offers great value. Easy to order and reorder. A single model number includes sensor, thermowell and transmitter assembly for a complete point solution

• All iTEMP® transmitters provide long term stability ≤0.05% per year
