3.2 Intended use

The model TC84 sapphire-design thermocouple, with gas-tight sapphire protection tube,
described here is suitable for temperature measurement in critical industrial applications
such as gasification or GtL reactors and is suitable for direct installation into the process.
Due to its monocrystalline structure, the sapphire protection tube extends the life of the
thermocouple's precious metal by 3 times, in comparison to purely ceramic protection
tube materials. As a result of the pressure-tight, hermetically sealed junctions between the
sapphire and metal protection tube, and also a multifold sealing system in the connection
housing, toxic gases are prevented from being able to escape from the reactor.
Neither repairs nor structural modifications are permitted, and any would void the
guarantee and the respective certification. The manufacturer shall not be responsible for
constructional modifications after delivery of the instruments.
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.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for claims of any type based on operation contrary to
the intended use.
