The measurement range for the wall-mount unit is limited due to the proximity of the probe to the transmitter electronics.

The full measurement range of the duct mount unit can only be utilized if the transmitter electronics operate within the given application range.

IP65 is only fulfilled, when the necessary number of conductors is used so that the M12 cable strain provides an effective seal
