Tip Selection and Exchange
The PP007-xx probe is supplied with two tip styles. The spring tip, which is installed when the probe is shipped,
combines a sharp point with on-axis compliance. This provides reliable connection under a wide range of physical
interconnect situtations. A rigid tip is also supplied. While lacking the on-axis compliance feature of the spring tip,
the rigid tip has a larger diameter and is more robust when exposed to physical stress at the tip. The user should
select the proper tip for their application needs.
To change the or replace it when damaged, carefully grip the outer most portion of tip and pull straight out, along
the axis of the probe, using needle nose pliers. Do not attempt to grip the plastic insulator with pliers when
removing the tip, as this will squeeze the tip, which will make it difficult or impossible to remove. Do not grip the
outer gold plated tube which the tip slides into. With the tip removed, align the replacement tip with the hole and
begin the insertion with the pliers. The tip may be fully seated by placing the probe against a hard surface and
gently applying pressure.
To remove tip, grip the spring-loaded portion of the tip,
Do not apply pliers to the plastic insulator.
