Installation Recommendations & Wiring Guide
Mounting: Secure the probe in a stable, vibration-isolated probe bracket or boss fixed to the monitored machinery. Ensure the probe tip aligns perpendicularly to the target surface for precise readings.
Gap Calibration: Set the probe-to-shaft clearance per OEM specifications to achieve optimal linearity and sensitivity. Typical gaps range from 0.5 mm to 2 mm based on application.
Cabling: Use shielded cable assemblies, routed separately from power cables and EMI sources to minimize noise interference.
Connector Handling: Ensure proper mating and locking of the ClickLoc connector to prevent accidental disconnection or signal loss.
Grounding: Connect cable shields to the monitoring unit at one end only to avoid ground loops.
Testing: Perform electrical continuity and insulation resistance tests before commissioning. Capture baseline vibration data for trend analysis.
