This unit processes the radio frequency (RF) signal from a compatible proximity probe to generate a linear analog voltage output directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed target area. Specially calibrated for a 1.0-meter system length, this model features country-specific agency approvals (CN designation) and is built with a rugged A308 aluminum housing to withstand extreme environmental conditions in critical machinery protection applications.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style-type: square;

It must only be paired with a combined cable length (probe plus extension) of exactly 1.0 meter. Coupling a 1.0-meter Proximitor with a 5.0-meter or 9.0-meter probe\/cable assembly will severely shift the voltage-to-distance slope, resulting in erroneous vibration readings on the monitoring system.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eApplication Pitfalls \u0026amp; Engineering Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #2d3748; margin-bottom: 1rem;\"\u003e\nWhen designing localized field enclosures, avoid mounting the Proximitor adjacent to high-voltage lines or power switchgear. Additionally, physical separation of at least 25.4 mm (1.0 inch) between individual Proximitor bodies is recommended to avoid cross-talk generated by the high-frequency RF carrier signals used to drive the non-contacting probes.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCommissioning \u0026amp; Wiring Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #2d3748; margin-bottom: 1rem;\"\u003e\nEnsure the outer coaxial terminal connection on the Proximitor side is fully insulated using the manufacturer-provided connector boots. Any accidental contact between the coaxial shield and structural earth ground will introduce a secondary ground loop, manifesting as raw 50\/60 Hz line-frequency noise on the output signal (often misdiagnosed as rotor imbalance or electrical runout).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #fff5f5; border-left: 4px solid #c53030; padding: 1rem; margin-bottom: 1.5rem; border-radius: 4px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong style=\"color: #9b2c2c; display: block; margin-bottom: 0.5rem;\"\u003eCRITICAL WARNING\u003c\/strong\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"color: #9b2c2c; margin: 0;\"\u003e\n    Verify that all system power sources are completely isolated before mounting the Proximitor.
