Mechanical Monitoring and TSI Integration

• Eddy-Current Probe Scaling: The 8 mm sensor face is calibrated to translate distance gaps into linear electrical potentials. The internal driver supplies radio-frequency excitation to the tip, generating an electromagnetic field that reacts with the observed target area to ensure uniform eddy-current probe scaling over standard operating windows.
• Gap Voltage Validation (-10 VDC Targets): Setting the physical installation depth requires evaluating the static output potential against the system's linear range curves. Technicians adjust the mechanical probe depth during machine standstill to achieve gap voltage validation (-10 VDC targets typically matching the linear midpoint), ensuring symmetric positive and negative dynamic vibration tracking.
• Rotor Dynamics Integration: The high-frequency demodulated signal from the companion driver unit is routed directly into the continuous machinery protection rack. This analog voltage shift maps real-time orbital profiles, sub-synchronous rub indications, and critical phase angles to analyze rotor dynamics properties during machine startup and full-load operation.
• Cross-Talk Suppression: The physical spacing and coaxial shielding configuration are engineered to isolate adjacent eddy-current fields. This construction enforces robust cross-talk suppression metrics when multiple radial vibration probes are mounted in close proximity within the same bearing cap assembly.
