SETTING DEVICE HAVING A TEMPERATURE SENSOR

摘要

A setting device is provided, comprising a housing, a combustion chamber having an ignition apparatus, a storage container having a container wall for storing fuel, a dosing apparatus for adding a specified volume of fuel to the combustion chamber, an apparatus, such as a firing pin, for inserting a setting element into a setting object, wherein a setting force can be applied to the apparatus as a result of the pressure of combustion gas such that the apparatus is operable by combustion force, a control unit, and a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the fuel in the storage container. The setting device is designed such that, while the storage container is connected to the setting device, the temperature sensor mechanically contacts an outer surface of the container wall, for indirect detection of the temperature of the fuel.
