Rigid Twin Lead
The spacers are put closer together at the probe end. The maximum amount
that can be cut is related to the ordering length L.
To cut a Rigid Twin Lead probe:
1. Cut the rods to the desired length:
• You may cut up to 19.7 in.
(500 mm) from the probe end for
probe length L above 46.5 in.
(1180 mm)
• For probe length
20.5 to 46.5 in. (520 to 1180 mm)
the minimium length is
20.5 in. (520 mm)
• For probe length 15.7 to 20.5 in.
(400 to 520 mm) the minimium
length is 15.7 in. (400 mm)
2. Update the transmitter configuration
to the new probe length, see “Tank
and Probe Geometry“ on page 5-4
and “Probe“ on page 5-21.
