4.3.3 Signal leads
For signal leads, leads with strands can be used, or in the case of head probes, solid wires. The lead ends
shall be definitely trimmed, if strands are used (e.g. by lead end sleeves). Solder-coating of the lead ends
to prevent splicing is not permissible.
A soldered joint to connect the temperature probe signal lead to the calculator is only permitted in the
case of non-interchangeable temperature probes.
For screened cables for temperature sensors there shall be no connection between the screen and the
protecting sheet.
To ensure best performance and measurement stability the 4-wire method and Pt 100 or Pt 500-
platinium resistance temperature sensors should be used.

4.3.4 Temperature sensors for the 2-wire method
The length and cross sectional area of signal leads of paired resistance sensors of separable sub-
assemblies shall be equal.
The length of the signal lead as supplied by the manufacturer shall not be changed.
The length shall be within the values given in Table 2. For sensors of higher resistances the limiting
value can be extended proportionally.

NOTE The values given in Table 2 have been obtained in the following manner:
It is assumed, that the difference in temperature of the leads does not exceed one third of the
temperature difference between inlet and outlet pipes.
The maximum permissible length of lead for each lead cross section was then calculated, having decided
that the error created may not be allowed to exceed 0,2 times the maximum permissible error of the
temperature probe pair and using the knowledge of the different resistances created by the
temperature differences between the inlet and outlet leads.
The influence of the length of a signal lead can be neglected, if the total resistance of a lead for a Pt 100
temperature sensor does not exceed two times 0,2 Ω.
4.3.5 Temperature sensors for the 4-wire method
If the cable length requirements in 4.3.4 cannot be fulfilled, the 4-wire method shall be used.
The connections shall be clearly identifiable so that they cannot be confused.
2 2
A cross-section of 0,5 mm is recommended for head sensors and a minimum cross-section of 0,14 mm
for cable sensors.
4.3.6 Thermal response time
The manufacturer shall declare the temperature sensor response time τ as defined in EN 60751:2008,
0,5
3.11 using the test method in EN 60751:2008, 6.5.2.
4.3.7 Qualifying immersion depth of a temperature sensor
The manufacturer shall declare the qualifying immersion depth as defined in EN 1434-4:2022, 7.4.4.1.
4.4 Other temperature sensors
Other types of temperature sensors are permissible, but shall be tested as part of the calculator.

(cooling) or given up (heating) by a liquid called the heat-conveying liquid. The thermal energy meter
indicates the quantity of thermal energy in legal units.
Electrical safety requirements are not covered by this document.
Pressure safety requirements are not covered by this document.
Surface mounted temperature sensors are not covered by this document.
This document covers meters for closed systems only, where the differential pressure over the thermal
load is limited.

NOTE It is assumed that the national temperature standards are established with reference to ITS-90 - The
International Temperature Scale of 1990.
4.3.3 Signal leads
For signal leads, leads with strands can be used, or in the case of head probes, solid wires. The lead ends
shall be precisely trimmed, if strands are used (e.g. by lead end sleeves). Solder-coating of the lead ends
to prevent splicing is not permissible.
A soldered joint to connect the temperature probe signal lead to the calculator is only permitted in the
case of non-interchangeable temperature probes.
For screened cables for temperature sensors there shall be no connection between the screen and the
protecting sheet.

To ensure best performance and measurement stability the 4-wire method and Pt 100 or Pt 500-
platinium resistance temperature sensors should be used.
4.3.4 Temperature sensors for the 2-wire method
The length and cross sectional area of signal leads of paired resistance sensors of separable sub-
assemblies shall be equal.
The length of the signal lead as supplied by the manufacturer shall not be changed.
The length shall be within the values given in Table 2.

0,22 2,5
0,50 5,0
0,75 7,5
1,50 15,0

For sensors of higher resistances the limiting value can be extended proportionally.
NOTE The values given in Table 2 have been obtained in the following manner:
It is assumed, that the difference in temperature of the leads does not exceed one third of the temperature
difference between inlet and outlet pipes.
The maximum permissible length of lead for each lead cross section was then calculated, having decided
that the error created may not be allowed to exceed 0,2 times the maximum permissible error of the
temperature probe pair and using the knowledge of the different resistances created by the temperature
differences between the inlet and outlet leads.
The influence of the length of a signal lead can be neglected, if the total resistance of a lead for a Pt 100
temperature sensor does not exceed two times 0,2 Ω.
4.3.5 Temperature sensors for the 4-wire method
If the cable length requirements in 4.3.4 cannot be fulfilled, the 4-wire method shall be used.
The connections shall be clearly identifiable so that they cannot be confused.
2 2
A cross-section of 0,5 mm is recommended for head sensors and a minimum cross-section of 0,14 mm
for cable sensors.
4.3.6 Thermal response time
The manufacturer shall declare the temperature sensor response time τ as defined in EN 60751:2008,
0,5
3.11 using the test method in EN 60751:2008, 6.5.2.
4.3.7 Qualifying immersion depth of a temperature sensor
The manufacturer shall declare the qualifying immersion depth as defined in prEN 1434-4:2020, 7.4.4.1.
4.4 Other temperature sensors
Other types of temperature sensors are permissible, but shall be tested as part of the calculator.
