Measure shaft displacement in pumps, fans, and compressors. API 670 compliance for machinery protection systems.
Predictive Maintenance
Enable condition-based maintenance that reduces emergency repairs by 40-60% and extends equipment life.
Installation Guidelines
- Gap Setting – Install with 1.0-1.5mm gap to shaft surface
- Alignment – Probe tip must be perpendicular to shaft (±5° tolerance)
- Target Surface – Ensure smooth, clean shaft surface
- Cable Routing – Avoid sharp bends, keep away from power lines
- Grounding – Ground shield at proximitor end only

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between proximity sensors and accelerometers?
A: Proximity sensors measure shaft displacement (absolute position), while accelerometers measure vibration.
Q: Can I use this with non-steel shafts?
A: Requires conductive target material (steel, stainless steel, Inconel). Not compatible with ceramic shafts.
Q: How often should I recalibrate?
A: API 670 recommends recalibration every 5 years or after cable replacement.
