If a remote temperature sensing system

48、 isused and has a known error which exceeds 6 2F, then thepermitted upper limits shown in Table 1 shall be adjusted by anamount to ensure that the true metal temperature does notexceed the upper limit shown, or the instrument shall bere-calibrated in accordance with 5.1.NOTE 4The surface temperature

Temperature sensing devices maygive instantaneous values at a specific point, or give average values overtime or over an area. Note that gradients differ between induction and gasfired billet heaters.6.3 When continuous monitoring of extrusion temperatures,with appropriate controls, is in place, minimum starting billettemperature is at the producers option.
