Model LP4000 is a retractable, linear polarization resistance probe commonly used in
field and plant applications. A specially designed packing gland is used with the probe
for insertion into or retraction from a pressurized system without a process shutdown. The
packing gland is designed to mount easily on a 1" piping system, but it can be
modified for your specific mounting requirements. The probe assembly consists of a packing
gland, an insertion rod with a hermetically sealed two-electrode endcap, and a six-pin
connector welded in place. A safety chain is also provided to prevent blowout. Standard
packing material in the packing gland is Teflon®, however, grafoil packing can be
provided for high temperature applications. The insertion length (I.L.) is calculated to
the end of the electrode and can be specified by the customer. For standard probes, the
maximum insertion length is given in the chart below. Electrodes for the probe can be
ordered separately. Several standard electrodes and probe lengths are available to meet
your specific needs.
