T-NC-8 API Proximity sensor
Proximity sensor no
contact
The T-NC/8-API transducer measures the distance of a ferrous
material from the sensor head.
The
non-contact type measurement can be both dynamic for vibration measurement and
static for displacements
The
Proximity sensor is composed of an ST-NC/8 proximity sensor, a CPT-NC/8
extension cable and a T-NC-8/API converter.
The generated signal allows measurements of vibration, displacement,
eccentricity and speed in the specific application.
The
measuring chain is composed by a proximity sensor, an extension cable and a
converter. The converter is inserted in a box and contains the electronics to
power the sensor and signal linearization. The operating principle is based on
the generation of a high-frequency electromagnetic field irradiated by the
sensor which induces an eddy current in the target. The intensity of this eddy
current depends directly on the distance between the sensor and the target and
is converted into an electric signal processed by the converter. The sensor is
composed of a stainless steel body and a Teflon coaxial cable
It is
manufactured according to API standards and it is available also with different
certifications: intrinsecally safe Atex, TP TC, IEC EX.
