Description
The Senturion XPR08 proximity probe system is a type of proximity sensor that uses the eddy current principle to measure the distance between the probe and a target. The probe has a 20mm tip that is made of a conductive material. When the probe is brought close to the target, an eddy current is induced in the target material. The strength of the eddy current is proportional to the distance between the probe and the target. The driver unit converts the eddy current signal into a voltage output that is proportional to the distance.
The XPR08 proximity probe system is designed for installations where there is a large target and clear readings are required. It has a range of up to 8mm and a nominal sensitivity of 1.97 mV/µm. The system is also designed for harsh environments and can operate up to 180°C.
Features
- Switch selectable system cable lengths 5m, 7m and 9m.
- 25mm tip diameter provides a clear signal from the target material
- LED indication of selected length.
- 3.5mm socket for gap voltage monitoring.
- Double screened cable for high noise immunity.
- Snap lock and shake proof cable connection.
- Excellent repeatability on replacement of probe, extension or driver.
Applications
- Machine Shaft Vibration monitoring
- Machine Shaft Position monitoring
- Speed monitoring
- Level monitoring
- Gap detection
