Probes are specialized non-contact sensors designed for high-precision measurement of machinery displacement and vibration. The architecture typically utilizes eddy current technology, consisting of a wire-wound coil housed in a PPS-molded tip. Technical characteristics include high-frequency response, linear scale factors, and exceptional thermal stability in oily or corrosive environments. Functionally, when connected to transmitters or monitors via extension cables, these probes measure radial vibration and axial thrust in fluid-film bearing machines. This capability is essential for the early detection of mechanical faults, ensuring the protection of critical rotating assets like turbines, compressors, and large industrial pumps.
