Expert Answers to Your Questions
Product Features
Q: What makes the -28 probe option special?
A: It carries multiple agency approvals. This is crucial for use in certified hazardous locations like oil and gas facilities.
Q: What is included in the -06 “fittings option”?
A: You get a 3/4″ NPT fitting, a reducer to 1/2″ NPT, and two sealing plugs. This allows flexible connection to different pipe sizes.
Application & Selection
Q: When do I need the 1.5-inch standoff adapter (-15)?
A: Use it when you cannot mount the housing flush to the machine. It creates space for wiring or clears an obstacle.
Q: The probe penetration is only 2.6 inches. Is that enough?
A> Yes, for many applications like measuring bearing housing vibration or case expansion. It is not for long shaft penetration.
Purchasing Guidance
Q: Why choose this model over a simpler one?
A> Choose 31000-28-05-15-026-06-02 if your site needs certified probes, a standoff, and pipe fittings. It saves time sourcing parts separately.
