How long is the capillary pipe on this thermostat?

I Have a SMEG FAB32AZ3 frigde/freezer. The pipe on the original thermostat is about 700mm long. I want to make sure I get the right one.

    Capillary pipes on thermostats generally come in two sizes, standard and long. This thermostat will be the same length as your original. If fitted in a pipe to direct it behind a wet wall put a ring of tape around the old and measure how far is fitted in the tube when removing. You then can mark and fit the new thermostat and make a small coil behind the body if required.
