Check and replace test probes
The spring-loaded test probes are subject to very different loads. A reliable signal transmission is
only possible with fully functional test probes. Conditions for reliable contact are:
no contamination on the plunger tip
no excessive wear of the points of the plunger tip
no scratches on the test probe's plunger shaft
no metal chips, particles, or other contamination on the probe plate between the probes
test probe is installed securely in the receptacle
no height differences between test probes of the same type
no bending of the test probe
correct position of the respective test probe types
The spring-loaded test probes can be removed and installed quickly without the need additional
wiring thanks to the receptacles. Specialised insertion and extract tools are available from INGUN
to replace test probes.
Appropriate extraction tools are also available from INGUN to replace defective receptacles. The
tool cuts into the wall of the used receptacle when screwed in. Using the spring-loaded weight, the
