Calibration and Adjustment
The probe has been factory-adjusted and comes with a calibration certifi cate. We recommend
calibration after about 1 year, depending on use. For probe adjustment instructions, contact
ROTRONIC or the ROTRONIC representative in your country.
Dimensional Diagram
The electronics of the probe is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and wrong supply
polarity. Make sure to be properly earthed when handling the probe. Improper handling and
too high supply voltage as well as wrong connections (supply voltage on signal wires) may
destroy the probe. This can be traced and will void warranty!
