Product Overview
When unplanned downtime strikes rotating machinery, the 111-402-000-013-A1-B1-C072-D000-E050-F0-G000-H01 Proximity Measuring System from Vibro Meter delivers reliable shaft vibration and position data. This non-contact system uses the eddy-current principle to measure relative vibration and gap without physical contact, reducing wear and maintenance costs over time.
Technical Specifications Breakdown
This system includes a transducer with a body length of 72 mm (M10 × 1 thread) and an integral cable of 5.0 m ±500 mm. The total system length is 1 m, and the weight is only 0.22 kg. Key performance specs include a frequency response from DC to 20 kHz (−3 dB) and a measurement range of 2 or 4 mm. The transducer operates from −40 to +180 °C with drift under 5%, and can survive short-term up to +220 °C. The head is rated IP68 per IEC 60529.
Industry Applications
This system excels in shaft relative vibration and gap/position measurement for machinery protection and condition monitoring. It is ideal for use with VM600Mk2/VM600 and VibroSmart monitoring systems. In API 670 applications, its temperature-compensated design ensures accurate readings even in harsh environments, reducing false alarms and maintenance costs.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the transducer with the M10 × 1 thread into a drilled and tapped hole per API 670 guidelines. Ensure the tip is clean and free of debris. Connect the integral cable using the self-locking miniature coaxial connectors—hand-tighten only until locked. For hazardous areas, use Ex certified versions and follow local safety regulations.
Maintenance & Reliability
The stainless steel body (AISI 316L) and Torlon tip resist chemical and mechanical stress. The IP68 rating allows submersion, but inspect the cable and connectors periodically for damage. The optional FEP sheath provides additional chemical resistance, extending service life and reducing replacement frequency.
Compatibility & Integration
This system requires a high-frequency power source from an IQS900 signal conditioner. It integrates seamlessly with VM600Mk2/VM600 and VibroSmart monitoring platforms. The voltage or current output includes short-circuit protection, ensuring reliable data transmission to your control system.
Buying Guide
Before ordering, confirm your system length requirements. The 111-402-000-013-A1-B1-C072-D000-E050-F0-G000-H01 comes with a 1 m total system length. Verify the environment (standard), body thread (M10 × 1), and cable length (5.0 m). SpareTechPLC stocks this model and can assist with compatibility checks for your application.
