When inserng the probe through the machine case or bearing cap, the signal voltage may
vary widely before the proper gap is obtained. Therefore, be sure the gap is within 0.07” (1.8
mm) of the target before aempng to set the gap electrically. If possible, set the probe gap
while the machine is shutdown, to avoid the danger of damaging the probe in the event that
it touches the sha.
Connect the probe to the transmier using the proper extension cable such that the com-
bined system length of probe + cable matches the transmier conguraon (refer to Metrix
datasheet 1028003, ordering opon B). Do not change the length of the extension cable
from the system, as such acon will adversely aect the calibraon and linearity. If a con-
nector must be replaced, the overall length of the cable can be reduced by 2” without harm.
Insulate the probe connector / extension cable connector juncon with the Metrix Model
8973 connector insulator.
