The 1442 series of eddy current probe systems serve applications with measurement ranges from 0.129 mm
(41142 mils). 1442 series probe systems fully satisfy the requirements of API 670 and are suitable for any type of dynamic
or static displacement measurement, including vibration, speed/acceleration, rotor/position, and differential expansion
measurements.

Non-contact Pick-up Probe System

A non-contact pick-up probe system is composed of three components.

Component

Description

Non-contact pick-up probe

The non-contact pick-up probe is an encapsulated wire configuration that reads the relative position of the equipment
by introducing eddy currents into the target material and measuring the change in the current as the target surface
moves. The energy loss into the target increases or decreases as the target moves nearer to or farther away from the
probe. The change in energy loss is detected as a change in the modulated signal. This change provides a voltage
proportional to the gap between the probe tip and the target. This signal is fed to the monitoring system, providing a
continuous and very accurate measure of the relative distance to the target surface.
The tip diameter characterizes the probe. In general, the wider the tip, the greater the range that the probe can sense.
Choose other characteristics, such as the body length and the thread size, based on the application.

Extension cable

The extension cable provides flexibility for placement of the probe by allowing extended lengths between the driver
and the non-contact pick-up. A variety of Teflon-insulated and Armor-coaxial extension cables adapt the sensor system
to most installations. The extension cables are electrically matched to the selected probe system.

Driver

The driver systems are case isolated and can be DIN-rail or panel mounted. The stainless-steel probe drivers provide the
radio frequency that powers the probe system. The driver is the primary component responsible for signal conditioning,
providing accurate linearity over the operating range of the system.

Wiring Guidelines
When wiring the probe driver to a monitor, consider the following recommendations:
Use a good quality instrumentation cable with three-conductor stranded wire and shield. Also consider the
following:
Use wire rated with a maximum capacitance of 60 pF/ft (197 pF/m) and inductance of 0.3 H/ft (1 H/m).
Use wire with insulation suitable for the environment and with adequate tensile strength and flexibility for the
application.
Use wire with a foil shield for use in environments where radio frequency interference (RFI) can be present.
Use wire with a braid shield for environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) can be present.

Use 0.751.25 mm2 (1816 AWG).

Make sure the wire is isolated from power cables and any other wiring that can be transmitting high voltage power or
control signals.
Isolate any cable transmitting pulse-type vibration signals, such as a phase marker or speed pulse, from displacement
and vibration signals.
Run wire within conduit and cable trays and as per any local electrical codes.
Do not exceed 500 m (1640 ft). However, limiting the length to 300 m (984 ft) guarantees that vibration signals in
the 010 kHz frequency range are transmitted with minimal attenuation. When longer lengths are needed, the
capacitance of the cable and the desired frequency response of the system must be considered.
In most cases, make sure that the cable shield is grounded at only one point, generally at the monitor.

Match System Components by Color

The 1442 probe systems use color-coded bands to match probes and extension cables with the appropriate driver. The
color-coded bands provide a system to identify the length of the extension cable and the length of the probe so that the
total system length, 5 or 9 m (16 or 29 ft), can be matched to the appropriate driver. When a system is properly sized, the
color bands on either side of the connectors between the probe, extension cable, and driver will match.
