The centering star is suitable for probes with a rod diameter of 16 mm (0.6 in) and
can be used in pipes from DN50 to DN100. The markings make it easer to cut to
size, ensuring that the centering star can be adjusted to the pipe diameter. See also

If the centering star is used in a bypass, it must be positioned below the lower
bypass outlet. This must be taken into account when choosing the probe
length. In general, the centering star should not be mounted more than 50
mm (1.97") above the probe tip. It is advised not to use the PEEK centering
star in the measuring range of the rod probe.
The PEEK centering star can also be ordered directly with the device
(Levelflex product structure, feature 610 "Accessory mounted", option OD). In
this case, it is not secured to the rod using the circlips, but instead is secured
using a hexagonal-headed bolt (A4-70) and a Nord Lock washer (1.4547) at
the tip of the probe rod.
