4.2.2 Support with marine approval (GL)
Conductive or nonconductive support can be provided for fully insulated rod probes.
Partially insulated rod probes may only be supported with insulation at the uninsulated
end of the probe.
Rod probes with a diameter of 10 to 16 mm (0.39 to 0.63 in) and a length
≥ 1 m (3.3 ft) have to be supported, see → 15
A0040416
Unit of measurement mm (in)
L/4 ¼ probe length
L/2 ½ probe length
L Active probe length
Example of calculating distances
• probe length L = 2 m (6.6 ft)
• L/4 = 500 mm (19.7 in)
• L/2 = 1 m (3.3 ft)
Measured from the end of the probe rod = 300 mm (11.8 in).
4.3 Measuring condition
Measuring range L1 is possible from the tip of the probe to the process connection.
Particularly suited for small containers.
Use a ground tube for nonconductive media.
