Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about our products and services

No. The head and integral hot cable specify −50 to +800°C, while the connector is limited to 200°C. Controller and extension limits are separate.

The manufacturer recommends the DT6228/DT6238 path with a DL6228 demodulator for HT sensors. Select the basic module for the required interface too.

The table lists 1, 2, 5 and 10 mm, with separate target-size and linearity values. Extended range is not the same as nominal range.

It includes a 1 m hot cable and type B socket. An additional suitable cable can be used, preserving connector, length adjustment and each section’s temperature limits.

No. The table specifies IP40. Thermal capability and ingress protection are separate system requirements.
