Mounting devices, adapters and packing glands
The basic design and construction of the SKF Eddy Probes
insures long, dependable service life. However, proper
installation is essential; once adjusted to its optimum
position, a probe must be absolutely immovable.
Standardized installation devices are offered for this specific
purpose. They eliminate the chore of making special
brackets or fixtures for each installation. They also help
insure that every SKF Eddy Probe will continue to deliver all
the accuracy built into it … year after year.
CMSS 903 Mounting Brackets are used in those
installations requiring probe mounting in the machine’s
internal area.
CMSS 903-1 Probe Holders are used to install CMSS 60/
CMSS 68 Series Eddy Probes on flat machine surfaces.
Threaded (3/8–24) and slotted, they insure a firm grip on
the probe, once it is adjusted to final operating position.
Two mounting holes accommodate #10 high tensile Allen
head cap screws (not provided) which are normally secured
with safety wires.
Material: Anodized aluminum.

CMSS 903-2 Probe Holders are used for installing CMSS
61/CMSS 65 Series Eddy Probes on flat machine surfaces
when space is at a premium. They are threaded (1/4–28)
and slotted to insure a firm grip after final adjustment.
Mounting holes accommodate two #6 high tensile Allen
head cap screws with safety wire holes (not provided).
Material: Stainless Steel.

CMSS 903-3 Probe Holders are similar to the CMSS 903-
1 but are designed to hold CMSS 61/CMSS 65 Series Eddy
Probes and, in addition, permit final adjustment where it
is not possible to turn the probe itself. This is especially
convenient for installation of probes with armored or
otherwise protected leads.
The probe is threaded into a sleeve, which mates with a
left-hand thread in the main body of the Holder. Turning
the sleeve then sets the probe position; it is not necessary
to turn the probe itself. Both Holder and sleeve are
slotted to insure a firm grip on the Probe. Mounting holes
accommodate two #10 high tensile Allen head cap screws
with safety wire holes (not provided).
Material: Anodized aluminum.
