❓ Frequently Asked Questions

• Q1: What does “unthreaded length 00” mean for mounting?
  A: It means flush tip. The probe face sits at the thread start. Best for shallow mounting holes.
• Q2: Can I use this probe with a 5m extension cable?
  A: Yes. Total system length (probe + extension) must not exceed 9m. Keep impedance matched.
• Q3 (experience): My signal jumps at high temp. Why?
  A: Check if temperature exceeds 177°C. Use T1 or T2 class for high heat. Add cooling if needed.
• Q4 (purchasing guide): Warranty & shipping details?
  A: 12 months warranty. Ships 12-24 hours after order. Carriers: FedEx, UPS, DHL. Tracking provided.
• Q5 (buying tip): Do I need a special proximitor for this 1m probe?
  A: No. Standard 3300 XL proximitor works. Set gap to 1.27mm (50 mils) for best linear range.
