FAQ

How does the 3300 NSv probe detect shaft displacement?
It uses eddy current principles where a varying magnetic field induces a voltage change in the target, which is converted to a displacement measurement.

Can this probe detect axial and radial vibration simultaneously?
Yes, while primarily measuring radial displacement, its high-frequency response allows monitoring of vibration along multiple axes with proper installation.

How does the probe handle temperature variations in industrial environments?
The stainless steel housing and internal electronics are rated to operate reliably from -40°C to +125°C without affecting measurement accuracy.

What kind of maintenance is required for long-term operation?
Regular visual inspection for corrosion or damage, along with periodic calibration checks, ensures continued accurate readings.

How is linearity ensured over the measuring range?
The probe is factory-calibrated with compensation circuitry to maintain linear output within ±1% of full scale across the typical ±0.25 mm range.

Can this probe be used in high-speed rotating machinery exceeding 10,000 RPM?
Yes, the probe’s frequency response up to 10 kHz supports accurate monitoring even in high-speed applications.

How does the probe respond to electromagnetic interference (EMI)?
The coaxial cable interface and shielding reduce EMI effects, ensuring stable and reliable signal output in electrically noisy environments.

What installation precautions are needed for accurate measurement?
The probe must be rigidly mounted, aligned correctly to the shaft, and free from mechanical stress to avoid measurement errors.
