Preface

This manual describes how to install and use the 1442 Series Eddy Current Probe System.
The 1442 Series eddy current probe system performs non-contact measurement of the distance between the sensor and the measured object (target), and outputs a proportional voltage signal. The static component of the measurement is the "gap," the absolute (DC) distance from the target surface to the probe tip. The dynamic component of the measurement is the "vibration," the cyclical (AC) movement of the target toward and away from the probe.
By combining this system with an Allen-Bradley® 1440 or 1444 Series measurement module, you can measure the vibration of a rotating shaft, its eccentricity, thrust position and rotating speed. The system is used for continuous measurement or monitoring of shafts rotating at high speeds, such as turbines, generators, and compressors.

Measurement Principles

The gap between the sensor and the target is found according to the following principles:
When an approximately 1 MHz high frequency current is supplied from the oscillator to the sensor, a high frequency magnetic field is created at the sensor tip.
The inter-linkage of the high frequency magnetic flux on the target induces an eddy current that flows on the target surface.
When the eddy current flows on the target surface, a magnetic field is created at the target side, and the sensor impedance changes.
When this change in output of the oscillator is detected, the distance versus output voltage is made linear by a linearizer circuit, and the result is output.

Installation
This chapter describes how to install a 1442 Series Eddy Current Probe System.
ATTENTION: Always ground the system. Never apply power until all wiring work and connection work has been completed. If this is not followed, there is a possibility of electrocution.
Installation work, wiring, and connections must be performed by a person with knowledge in instrumentation.
ATTENTION: Be sure to adhere to the following guidelines:
Before touching this unit, be sure to touch a metal section near by to
discharge any static electricity. The device can be damaged if exposed to static electricity from a person’s body.
Before applying power, make sure that all wiring is properly connected. There is a possibility of damage to the unit and fire if improperly connected.
Install this unit away from motors and relays.
Install the input/output signal cables away from power system and
control system cables. Noise occurring from the motor or relay can adversely affect the measurement value. We recommend using separate wiring ducts.
Do not pull or bend the sensor cables and extension cables with excessive force. The conductor in the cable can get cut off.
The allowable tension of the sensor cables and extension cables is
98.1 N•m (10 kgf•m). The allowable bend radius is as follows:
Without armored cable: 30 mm (1.18 in.)

Connect the Wiring

This section describes the wiring connections for the 1442 Series Eddy Current Probe system.
The 1442 Series includes color–coded bands on the ends of each component. The color–coded bands help you identify the length of the extension cable and the length of the probe so that the total system length (5 or 9 meters) can be matched to the appropriate driver. When the system is properly "sized," the color bands for the probe, extension cable, and driver will match.

WARNING: Make sure the wiring and connections are performed by a
person with knowledge in instrumentation.
WARNING: Make sure you ground your system. Never apply power until all wiring and connection work has been completed. If this is not followed there is a possibility of electrocution.
ATTENTION: Make sure to tighten the collar of the connector by hand. Using a tool to tighten the collar can damage the connector. If the installation environment does not allow proper tightening by hand and there is a possibility that it can come loose, tighten an additional 1/4 turn using pliers after tightening by hand:
Do not apply excessive force on the screws of the connector. The connector can be damaged
Do not cut the sensor or extension cables shorter. It can cause problems, such as not being able to perform up to specifications.
Make sure that the cable is not twisted when connecting the connectors. Twisting stress on the cable can slowly loosen the connection.
If a twisting force is applied to the direction where the collar is loosened, twist the extension cable slightly to the opposite direction of the collar tightening direction before connecting. Then connect the connector and tighten the collar.
We recommend that excessive extension cables be stored in the cable storage box. If it is unavoidable to store inside the driver housing, do not force excessive cables into the housing.

Connections are performed in the following order.
1. Connect the extension cable (when using the extension cable).
2. Connect the sensor.
3. Connect the XM® module.
4. Verify the connections.
5. Check the gap voltage.
Connect the Extension Cable
Use the following steps to connect the sensor and extension cable.
The connection area of the connector must not be exposed to water or oil. If water or oil enters the connector, the cable capacity increases, and causes a loss in sensitivity.
Make sure the color band on the sensor cable matches the color band on the probe end of the extension cable. See
page 32.

Maintenance and Inspection
This chapter describes the maintenance and inspection procedures for the unit.

Periodic Inspection Intervals

Unit Life

To maintain performance and secure system stability of the unit, inspect the system and its mounts for corrosion, properly-tightened or torqued fittings and connections, and component conditions annually. Check sensor gap settings annually and at any time measurements become suspect. Refer to Set Gap Voltage
on page 36.
Plan to replace eddy current probe systems approximately every 10 years.
Ten years is a general guideline for replacement. If otherwise undisturbed, eddy current probe systems deteriorate over time due to temperature and erosion. The deterioration rate for sensors, extension cables, and drivers depends on the specific environmental conditions to which each component is subjected.
The following is a flowchart for determining when a replacement is required.

Wire the Unit to a Monitor System
The 1442 Series Probe System is designed to satisfy the API-670 standard. Any monitor designed to connect API-670 probes can be used with these sensors.
Consider the following recommendations when wiring the probe driver to a monitor:
· Use a good quality instrumentation cable with three-conductor stranded wire and shield.
– Wire must be rated with a maximum capacitance of 60 pF/ft
(197 pF/m) and inductance of 0.3 µH/ft (1 µH/m).
– Use wire with insulation suitable for the environment and with
adequate tensile strength and flexibility for the application.
– Use wire with a foil shield for use in environments where radio
frequency interference (RFI) may be present. Use a wire with a braid shield for environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) may be present.
Use 0.75…1.25 mm (18…16 AWG) gauge wire.
· Make sure the wire is isolated from power cables and any other wiring that
may be transmitting high-voltage power or control signals.
· Any cable transmitting pulse-type vibration signals such as a phase marker or speed pulse must be isolated from displacement and vibration signals.
· Run wire within conduit and cable trays and as per any local electrical codes.
· Do not exceed a wire length of 500 m (546.81 yds). However, limiting the length to 300 m (328.08 yds) transmits vibration signals in the 0…10 kHz frequency range with minimal attenuation. When longer lengths are needed the capacitance of the cable and the desired frequency response of the system must be considered.
· In most cases, ground the cable shield at only one point, generally at the monitor.
