The detector serves as the primary sensing element in surface finish measurement systems, translating stylus movement across a workpiece surface into electrical signals that the host instrument processes into roughness and profile data. Weighing 1 pound and measuring 7 inches in length, 3.5 inches in width, and 1.5 inches in height, this unit is engineered to exact OEM specifications. Installation and replacement are typically performed by metrology technicians or precision instrument service personnel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis detector is used in precision measurement environments including manufacturing quality control labs, machine shops, and inspection departments. It is compatible with a range of Mitutoyo surface roughness and form measurement instruments. The 178-396-2 is packaged individually and sold as a single-unit replacement component for qualified service and calibration applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM-specified replacement detector for Mitutoyo surface roughness and contour systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with multiple Mitutoyo instrument models including CNC and manual variants\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor: 7 inches long, 3.5 inches wide, 1.5 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight construction at 1 pound for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as individual unit with a minimum order quantity of 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with the following Mitutoyo instruments: SJ-410, SJ-500, SV-2100, SV-3100, SV-3000CNC, SV-M3000CNC, SV-C3200, and SV-C4500.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetector replacement should be performed by a qualified metrology technician or calibrated instrument service professional.
