FAQ
- What is the total probe length?
- 5.0 meters (16.4 feet).
- Can I use this probe with an 8mm Proximitor?
- No. Use only the 5 meter Proximitor Sensor.
- What happens if temperature drops below -34°C?
- The pressure seal may fail early.
- How tight should the connector be?
- Finger tight only. Max torque 0.565 N•m.
- What is the minimum shaft diameter?
- 152 mm (6.0 inches).
- Is the probe armored?
- No. This model has no armor (suffix 000).
- 经验性问答: We saw the gap voltage drift. What went wrong?
- Check cable bends. Minimum bend radius is 25.4 mm. Tighter bends cause noise and drift.
- 经验性问答: After tightening, the probe read incorrectly.
- You may have overtightened. Recommended torque is 21.1 N•m. Higher torque can damage threads or case.
- 选购指导: Which probe length should I choose?
- Match total probe length to your Proximitor. 5m probes need 5m Proximitor. Do not mix lengths.
- 选购指导: How to select thread size?
- Check your mounting hole. M16x1.5 is common. Use adapters if needed.
- 选购指导: Do I need armor?
- For dry, clean areas, no armor is fine (model 000). For rough environments, choose armored option.
