Operation

Use thermistors only within the specified operating temperature range.

Use thermistors only within the specified voltage and current ranges (ICLs).

Environmental conditions must not harm the thermistors. Use thermistors only in normal

atmospheric conditions.

Contact of NTC thermistors with any liquids and solvents should be prevented. It must be

ensured that no water enters the NTC thermistor (e.g. through plug terminals). For

measurement purposes (checking the specified resistance vs. temperature), the component

must not be immersed in water but in suitable liquids (e.g. Galden).

Avoid dewing and condensation.

Be sure to provide an appropriate fail-safe function to prevent secondary product damage

caused by malfunction (e.g. use VDR for limitation of overvoltage condition).
