Probe placement
• Circular pattern with reference in center
• Sufficient immersion
(20*) x (probe diameter) + (sensor length)
i.e., 20 x 3/16” + 1” = 3.75” + 1” = 4.75”
(20 x 4 mm + 25 mm = 80 mm + 25 mm = 105 mm)
* Note: 15X and 20X are often used with some small
uncertainty due to immersion error. When practical,
immersion of 30X essentially eliminates all error from
this component.
