Maximum Process Temperature Chart
WARNING: Internal temperature must not exceed 80 °C (176 °F).
Note: If the internal temperature exceeds the maximum allowable limit, a sun shield or
a longer nozzle may be required.

• The chart is for guidance only and does not represent every possible process connection
arrangement. For example, it will not apply if the LR200 is mounted on a nozzle greater
than 8" nominal, or directly on a metallic vessel surface.
• It does not take into consideration heating from direct sunshine exposure.
• To view peak recorded temperatures, go to Diagnostics (3.) > Measured Values (3.3) >
Min. Intern. Temp (3.3.7) or Max. Intern. Temp. (3.3.8); or open the menu View – Peak
Values and click on the temperature tab.

UHMW-PE antennas are rated to a maximum of 80 °C (176 °F) of continuous duty. However, they can be
used for periods of up to 3 hours at temperatures up to 120 °C (248 °F) at 1 bar pressure.
