Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Selection & Ordering

• What does the “8mm” mean for me?

The 8mm body is thicker and more rugged. It better resists physical damage in tough plants.

• How do I read the part number suffixes?

Each hyphenated number is a configurable option. The tree structure above details what “30-10-10-02-05” means for this unit.

Installation & Use

• What is the correct installation gap?

Target -9 Vdc at the monitor. This equals about 1.27 mm (50 mils) between the probe tip and shaft.

• Can I cut or splice the probe cable?

No. This will change electrical characteristics. Always order the correct cable length. Use extension cables if needed.

Maintenance & Experience

• The probe was installed in a hot area. Any advice?

For ambient temperatures over 177°C, you need the Extended Temperature Range (ETR) probe option. Check your model.

• Signal seems unstable. What are common causes?

Check for loose connectors. Ensure the target surface is clean and conductive. Verify proper grounding of the system.

Purchasing Guide

Follow these steps to select the right probe:

1. Identify the required total length (Cable + Case).
2. Confirm your machine’s thread type and mounting hole depth.
3. Check the maximum ambient temperature at the installation point.
4. Decide if you need special options like FluidLoc for wet environments.
5. Match the connector type to your existing system.
