METRIX TXR-30120 PROXIMITER

Applications

• TXR System: Used for monitoring radial vibration in rotating machinery like turbines, compressors, and motors.
• TXA System: Used for monitoring axial thrust in applications such as steam turbines, gearboxes, and pumps.

TXR – Radial Vibration Transmitter System

• Purpose: Measures the radial vibration of a shaft or other part of machinery, providing data on how the machine component moves relative to the probe tip.

• Measurement Principle: It detects the radial displacement or vibration of a rotating part (like a shaft) to monitor conditions such as imbalance, misalignment, or wear.

• Key Components:

  • Proximity Probe: Senses the displacement or vibration.
  • Matched Extension Cable: Carries the signal from the probe to the transmitter.
  • Transmitter: Converts the signal into a 4-20 mA current loop output, which can be used by monitoring equipment or control systems.

• Output Signal: Provides a 4-20 mA current loop output, which is a standard signal for industrial applications. This output can be interpreted by monitoring systems to assess the condition of machinery and detect potential issues.

The Metrix TXR30120 is used for vibration or displacement measurements in machinery and equipment monitoring systems, typically for:

• Radial vibration monitoring on rotating equipment (such as motors, turbines, etc.).
• Condition monitoring systems to detect imbalances, misalignments, or wear.
• Machinery protection in industries like manufacturing, power generation, and oil & gas.
