Abstract
A measuring or sampling probe is to be lowered to a desired depth in a molten metal. The probe is mounted on a probe carrier which can be lowered and raised. A contact detector, which emits a control signal when the detector comes into contact with the upper surface of the molten metal, is fixed on the probe carrier at a distance above the probe.
