NOTE
LIQUID TEMPERATURE INDICATORS TYPE 1187
Product description
Liquid temperature indicators 1187
These devices are designed to measure the temperature
of the insulating liquid inside transformer's tank, reactors
and similar equipment. Adjustable switching system
connected to the pointer shaft provides the desired alarm/
trip signals.
WARNING
Fully read this instructions manual before utilizing the device.
Installation
CAUTION
The operating and the installation requirements described in
this manual must be strictly followed. If not, the device can be
damaged or a malfunction can occur.
Mounting of the device
Device shall be attached on the transformer according the
selected mounting fixing system (Flange, Elastic Suspen-
sion): relevant dimensions are indicated in the drawings
in Appendix A. The device should be installed vertically.
Device installation position shall be selected in order to
avoid any irregular vibration and/or electromagnetic fields
above the applicable standards.
Capillary tube
Roll out the capillary tube avoiding kinks and loops. Do not
rip, cut, pull, or bend this tube. Do not handle the device
through the capillary tube. Roll up the excess tube with a
minimum winding diameter of 40cm.
Sensitive bulb

(DIN pocket 42554 or similar) which has been previously
filled completely with transformer liquid (in case of DIN
42554 pocket, the minimum liquid quantity inside the
quantity must be 80ml).
Maximum pointer (optional)
The maximum pointer (fig. 1/6) is operated by the pointer
and records the maximum reading of the temperature
measurement. The maximum pointer can be reset using
the knob (fig. 1/7).
