Working Principle: When high-frequency current flows through the internal coil of the probe, an alternating magnetic field is generated around the probe tip. When a conductive metal surface (such as a rotating shaft) enters this magnetic field, eddy currents are induced on the metal surface. These eddy currents generate a reverse magnetic field that alters the impedance of the probe coil. The proximitor detects this impedance change and converts it into a DC voltage signal proportional to the gap distance. The smaller the gap, the more negative the output voltage; the larger the gap, the closer the output voltage approaches zero.
Installation Requirements:
- The total length of probe cable plus extension cable must match the nominal system length of the proximitor (5-meter or 9-meter system)
- The mounting threaded hole must be pre-machined to ensure smooth thread engagement
- The probe mounting bracket must have sufficient rigidity; flexible connections are strictly prohibited
- The target shaft surface must be smooth, scratch-free, and free of plating, with surface roughness better than 1.6μm
- Gap voltage must be set to -10.0 VDC ± 0.2V under static (cold) conditions
Usage Precautions:
- Never insert or remove probe connectors while energized
- Coaxial cables must not be bent at right angles; the minimum bending radius must be maintained, otherwise the cable capacitance value changes causing measurement deviation
- Extension cable shielding must be grounded at a single point only; multi-point grounding creating ground loops is strictly prohibited
- Signal cables must be kept away from high-voltage power cables with a minimum separation of 30cm
- Regularly verify probe linearity using a TK-3E calibration instrument
- Recommended installation torque is 1.7 to 2.3 N·m; overtightening damages the internal coil
