Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are commonly used for probe housings?

Stainless steel (316L) for corrosion resistance, aluminum alloys for lightweight applications, and engineering plastics like PEEK or PTFE for chemical resistance and electrical insulation.

How does probe housing affect measurement accuracy?

Proper housing design minimizes thermal expansion effects, reduces vibration transmission, and prevents contamination, all of which directly impact sensor accuracy and repeatability.

What IP rating is recommended for industrial probe housings?

IP67 or IP68 ratings are standard for industrial applications to ensure protection against dust and water ingress in harsh environments.
