Ranges/Probes

The Range and Near Gap are directily proportional to the diameter of the probe: larger probes have larger Ranges and Near Gaps.cal

Probes are identified by their diameter.
A U5 probe has a 5mm diameter, U8 a 8 mm diameter etc. Larger ranges require larger probes.

Custom ranges are always available.

Listed specifications are for standard target materials.
