The final “02-05” configuration specifies environmental protection and cable jacket selection suitable for industrial EMI and temperature conditions.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

Maintain correct probe gap calibration to ensure linear output voltage response across the measurement range.

Avoid excessive bending of the extension cable and maintain a minimum bending radius of 50 mm to preserve signal integrity.

Route signal cables away from VFDs, transformers, and high-voltage conductors to minimize EMI influence.

Ensure proper grounding of the Proximitor system to stabilize measurement reference potential.

Use compatible driver modules to guarantee correct excitation and signal conditioning performance.

Engineering Advantages

The probe maintains stable performance in high-temperature, high-pressure, and high-vibration turbine environments.

It ensures reliable eddy current signal response even under mechanical shock and thermal cycling conditions.

It integrates directly with Bently Nevada 3500 TSI systems for turbine protection and predictive diagnostics.

It also supports seamless integration with DCS platforms such as Honeywell Experion PKS through signal conditioning interfaces.
