An armored stainless steel cable protects wiring from corrosion and damage in humid conditions and harsh environments. The bayonet mounting connection securely holds the probe in place in high-vibration environments, and the included mounting adapter converts the bayonet connection to a threaded connection.
Note: When installing probes with wire leads, the red wire is negative.
