TANK SHIELD PROBE RTG14

There are many types of probes used in restaurant equipment for the measurement of temperature, humidity, liquid level, ice level, product or ingredient levels and other critical operating limits and control points (HACCP). A probe is a small device, especially an electrode, used for measuring, testing, or sensing and obtaining information. Probes are commonly thin and oblong, and may be flexible. They provide data output to other components to control operation of the equipment. 

Generally, a shield is a protective plate or screen on machinery or equipment. There are various types of shields used in restaurant equipment from screw and bolt shields, splash shields, splatter shields, heat shields, burner shields, radiation shields, sneeze guards, frost shields, lamp and bulb shields, drip shields, and many others.

A tank, receptacle, bowl, or chamber is a reservoir. They may be used to store liquid or solid ingredients or may serve as a waste container. In restaurant equipment, examples of reservoirs may be seen in ice machines, beverage equipment, coffee machines, condiment dispensers, dish washing equipment, waste handling equipment, and many more.
