Probes and extensions

Probe compatibility: Full line of standard probes available — custom probes also available (not compatible with Model 450/421 probes) — More information on probe compatibility
Hall sensor compatibility: Front panel programmable sensitivity and serial number for user supplied Hall sensor — More information on Hall sensor compatibility
Extension cable compatibility: Calibrated or uncalibrated probe extension cables with an EEPROM are available from 10 ft to 100 ft — More information on Extension cable compatibility

Lake Shore calibrated extension cables maintain the same accuracy as the Model 475 probe.

The uncalibrated version involves the operator leading the matching probe data file into the cable PROM directly from the Model 475 front panel. Additional errors caused by the uncalibrated extension cables are ±0.2% of field reading error and 1 ºC temperature reading error.
