Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  1. Q: What materials are available for this sounding rod?
    A: The standard material is 304 stainless steel. We also offer 316 stainless steel or other alloys upon request for highly corrosive environments.
  2. Q: Can I order a different probe length?
    A: Yes, we can customize lengths from 0.5m to 3m or more. Please specify your required length when placing the order.
  3. Q: Is this rod suitable for use with flammable liquids?
    A: Yes, the metal construction is non-sparking and safe for many flammable liquids when properly grounded. Always follow site safety procedures.
  4. Q: How do I attach this rod to a gauging device?
    A: The rod end can be threaded (e.g., 1/4" NPT) or left smooth for a friction fit. We can provide adapters for common gauge types.
  5. Q: What is the maximum pressure rating?
    A: The rod is designed for atmospheric or low-pressure tanks (typically
  6. Q: Does the ball tip prevent false readings from foam or turbulence?
    A: The ball’s smooth profile reduces surface tension effects and can help minimize interference from foam or slight agitation. For extreme conditions, a stilling well may be recommended.
  7. Q: How should I clean and maintain the rod?
    A: Wipe with a soft cloth and mild detergent after use. Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the polished surface. Store in a dry environment.
  8. Q: What is the lead time for standard and custom orders?
