5. Pull stinger out from base.
6. Unscrew probe and remove.
To install probe
1. Clean the threads of the stinger.
2. Install the appropriate sensor o-ring onto the base of the threaded portion of the
probe. Use Table 2 on page 7 to determine which o-ring to install.
3. Apply two drops of thread locking compound, such as Loctite 242 (or greater), to the
probe threads.
4. Insert probe cable into the stinger and tighten probe to 66 in-lb (7.5 N-m).
5. Apply a film of grease to the unthreaded surface of the stinger. Insert the stinger into
the base until the knurled adjusting knob contacts the base.
6. Install the adjusting cage and hand tighten.
7. Install the jam nut so the flat portion of the stinger is above the jam nut.
8. Connect the non-contact sensor to the monitoring system.
9. Gap the probe. Refer to the eddy current probe manual for probe gap procedures and
specifications.
10. Tighten jam nut and verify gap voltage. Use a wrench on flat portion of the stinger to
ensure the stinger does not move while tightening the jam nut. Tighten the jam nut to
35 ft-lb (48 N-m) torque.
TIP
To prevent the non-contact sensor from contacting the target
surface, it is advisable to rotate the knurled adjusting knob until it
bottoms out of threads.
ATTENTION
Do not scratch sensor tip or target surface.
