Quick Detail

Description

The 18745-03 5 & 8 mm Proximitor Sensor is designed for industrial automation systems requiring precise noncontact measurement of shaft position and vibration on rotating and reciprocating machinery. The 18745-03 sensor uses an 8 mm reverse mount proximity probe with a gap-to-voltage transducer method, offering a linear measuring range of 2 mm and a frequency response from 0 Hz to 10 kHz for both static and dynamic distance monitoring. Compatible with gas turbines, steam turbines, compressors, pumps, centrifuges, electric motors, and generators, the 18745-03 ensures accurate data acquisition for predictive maintenance and automated condition monitoring. Its stainless steel lead armor and vibration-resistant design maintain reliability in harsh industrial environments. The miniature ClickLoc coaxial connector and field wiring range of 16 to 24 AWG allow flexible integration within distributed control systems. Operating temperatures from -52°C to +100°C and API 670 compliance make the 18745-03 sensor suitable for high-availability automated facilities, providing critical measurement data that enhances equipment uptime and process efficiency.
