3.4.2 Shorten the probe
In order to leave some clearance distance between the probe end and the tank bottom, the
probe might have to be shortened. The goal is to have the probe hang straight so that it does
not touch the wall. 2 in. (5 cm) is a suggested value. The probe can be shortened in field. Use the
following form to calculate the probe length:
Probe Length = Tank height - 2 in. (5 cm)
After shortening the probe make sure to update the transmitter configuration to the new probe
length, see “Probe Length” on page 161.
