    Eddy-Current Proximity Probes

    Sourced and supplied across Saudi Arabia

    Eddy-current proximity probes measure shaft position and relative shaft vibration without touching the shaft. They are the sensor used inside machinery protection systems on turbines, large compressors and fluid-film bearing machines, where the requirement is to watch the shaft itself rather than the casing. They are supplied as a matched set of probe, extension cable and driver, and the three must be ordered together to stay within calibration.

    What to state in your enquiry

    The more of this you send, the closer the first quotation lands.
