Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
What is the typical sensing distance for this probe?
The typical gap between the probe tip and the target shaft surface is about 8 mm, with a measurement range of ±2 mm for vibration. -
Can this probe be used in explosive environments?
Yes, when paired with the appropriate intrinsic safety barriers and certified monitoring systems, it can be used in hazardous locations. -
What type of output signal does the probe produce?
It produces an AC voltage output proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the rotating shaft. -
How long is the standard cable length?
The standard cable length is 2 meters but can be customized upon request. -
What maintenance is required for the probe?
The probe requires minimal maintenance; periodic visual inspections and cleaning of the tip are recommended. -
Is the probe compatible with other manufacturers’ monitoring systems?
It is primarily designed for Bently Nevada 3300 XL systems but may work with other systems supporting eddy-current proximity probes. -
What is the operating temperature range of the probe?
