In-Depth FAQs
Understanding the Configuration
- Q: When should I choose a housing WITH a standoff adapter?
- A: Use a standoff when there is material (like insulation, a thick guard, or a double wall) between your mounting surface and the machine surface where you need to measure. The standoff bridges this gap.
Technical Specifications
- Q: What is the difference between “Probe Penetration” and “Standoff Adapter” length?
- A> Probe Penetration (3.2 in) is how far the probe sits inside the housing body. Standoff Adapter length (3.5 in) is how far the housing extends from the mounting point. They are separate measurements that add up to total extension.
- Q: Is the 0.5m cable long enough for my application?
- A> This short cable is designed to exit the housing and connect quickly to an extension cable or a nearby junction box. It is not meant to reach the monitor directly. You will likely need a separate extension cable.
Practical Application & Selection
- Q: Can this housing be used in a high-temperature area above 105°C?
- A> No. The specified temperature limit is 105°C. The plastic material properties and seal integrity are not guaranteed above this temperature. Check the machine surface temperature first.
- Q: From field experience, what is key for a reliable seal with the cable grip?
- A> Ensure the cable outer jacket is clean and round where it passes through the grommet. Any cuts or deformities in the jacket can create a path for moisture to seep in, defeating the IP66 rating.
