In case of high mechanical stress (strong vibration, moving viscous media) it
may be necessary to secure the screw connection, e.g. by a screw retaining
compound.
Substances such as screw retaining compounds may migrate into the
medium. Make sure that they are harmless.
7.3 Shortening of the probe, determination of the probe length
The rod can be shortened to adapt the probe to different tank heights.
Ensure that the probe length is not below the minimum permissible probe
length of 150 mm (L
