Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
Separate models span 0.25 to 10 mm. Reduced and extended settings are also defined; do not interchange them when comparing linearity and resolution.
Short-span models have a defined clamping region; other models use the drawing’s mounting position. Specifications refer to circumferential clamping at the recommended location.
No. The table assigns type C or B triaxial sockets by model. Select cable and connector from the corresponding model column.
No. It is typical head linearity under the specified cable conditions. The manufacturer adds the controller contribution for total measuring-channel linearity.
Use the model’s recommended flat-target size for nominal range. It differs from active area and generally increases with measurement span.
