Number
of Elements |
|
Many sensors can
accommodate two elements – called dual element. Dual element construction
is restricted by wire size and tube size. |

|
Junction
Style |
|
Junction style
specifies whether the tube end is open or closed, and if the element is
grounded to the tube. |
|
|
|
|
|
Probe
Configuration |
|
Specifies the angle of
the sensor probe relative to the attaching device. Sensors are available
straight in line, or 45° or 90° off the mounting plane. |

Length
of Components |
|
Components with
meaningful linear dimensions are the rigid tube (or probe), flexible tube,
including stainless steel overbraid and Fiberglass insulation only, and
extended lead (considered part of the cold end termination). Code designations
for each of these dimensions are as follows: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
X=Rigid length
(probe). Typically applies to sensor with adjustable attaching device.
Y=Flexible length (flexible armor, SS overbraid, Fiberglass)
Z=Locating
depth for fixed bayonet lock. Frequently, but not always, replaces X.
L=Extended lead. In addition to the standard lead length provided on the
sensor. |
