What Are Proximity Probes?
Proximity probes are displacement sensors that can detect the position of nearby objects without any physical contact. They work by connecting an oscillator demodulator circuit which produces a radio frequency signal that is radiated from the probe tip and the feedback received depends on how close a metallic surface is to the probe.
Having a highly accurate and reliable proximity probe is essential for protecting valuable and critical machinery. The proximity probes provide reliable signals for measuring position and vibration on your rotating and reciprocating machines. The early warning provided by these signals will help you reduce maintenance costs and prevent expensive equipment failures.
MX8030 Proximity Probe
The MX8030 probe series has two diameter probe types consisting of 5mm and 8mm tips. These proximity probes usually come in 0.5- and 1-meter system lengths, other lengths are available. The associated triaxial cable provides a very durable shield to protect the coaxial cable inside. There are no special tools needed to set it up, due to the VibeLock™ connectors that keep the proximity probe cable and the extension cable connections in place.
TightView™ Proximity System
The TIGHTVIEW® Proximity System was designed to fit very tight spaces and provide an excellent linear measurement compared to competitive products for similar applications.
MX2030 Probe Series
The MX2030 probe series has two diameter probe types consisting of 5mm and 8mm tips. The associated cable is coaxial and very flexible. These probes are generally used in very tight locations. This proximity probe usually comes in 0.5- and 1-meter system lengths, other lengths are available. When used with the MX2031 extension cable and MX2033 driver, it can deliver full API 670-compliant performance.
