GENERAL HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
recommendations
carefully
before
handling
Do not drop the transducer onto a hard surface or subject it to violent shocks.
Protect the body/head of the transducer with plastic protective netting when it is being
handled, stored or transported. Remove this protection only when mounting the
transducer or when inspecting/testing it.
Check for dents when inspecting the transducer as this is a sign that it could have
suffered a physical shock by impact. This may have caused damage to components
within the transducer.
Do not excessively bend the transducer cable or associated cables. Respect the
minimum bending radius quoted in the appropriate data sheet.
When storing and using the equipment, respect the environmental specifications
(temperature, humidity) quoted in the appropriate data sheet.
Refer also to Handling Precautions for Electrostatic Sensitive Devices on page xiv.

SAFETY
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES
xiv
Before handling electronic circuits, discharge the static electricity from your body by
touching and momentarily holding a grounded metal object (e.g. a pipe or cabinet).
Avoid the build-up of static electricity on your body by not wearing synthetic clothing
material, as these tend to generate and store static electric charges. Cotton or cotton
blend materials are preferred because they do not store static electric charges.
Do not handle electronic circuits unless it is absolutely necessary. Only hold modules by
their front panel handles.
Do not touch printed circuit boards, their connectors or their components with conductive
devices or with your hands.
Put the electronic circuit, printed circuit board or module containing electronic
components into an antistatic protective bag immediately after removing it from the
system rack.

FOR FURTHER
General
Vibro-Meters proximity systems are intended for the contactless measurement of the relative
displacement of machine elements. Such systems are particularly suitable for measuring the
relative vibration and axial position of machine shafts, such as those found in steam and gas
turbines, alternators, turbocompressors and centrifugal pumps. This manual describes
proximity systems based around the TQ 4XX series of proximity transducers.
Like all passive transducers, the TQ 4XX requires a complementary signal conditioner
(oscillator/demodulator). The TQ 4XX series of proximity transducers operate with the
IQS 45X series of signal conditioners. The IQS 45X provides the TQ 4XX with a
high-frequency stimulus and also conditions the proximity signal for processing by other
electronic modules.
The TQ 4XX is equipped with an integral cable. An EA 40X extension cable can be
connected, if necessary, to link the proximity transducer to the signal conditioner. In any given
configuration the total length must be :
either
5m
(5 m integral cable or
integral cable + extension cable totalling 5 m)
or
10 m
Table 1-1 and Table 1-2 show the correspondence between the various elements (TQ 4XX,
IQS 45X and EA 40X), and also the measuring range and sensitivity of the overall proximity
system. The table also indicates the special versions of the TQ 4XX transducers, i.e. the
high-pressure versions (TQ 422, TQ 423, TQ 432) and the reverse mount versions (TQ 412,
TQ 432).
Further information can be found in the relevant data sheets. Table 1-1 and Table 1-2 provide
the data sheet reference numbers. For example, document 265-061 should be consulted for
the TQ 401.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
2.1
Measurement Principle
The proximity system uses a non-contacting measurement technique based on the eddy
current effect. Using this technique, it is possible to measure the distance between a moving
(vibrating) object and the transducer. The latter is mounted on another object that is
stationary and normally non-vibrating. The proximity system provides a signal that is directly
proportional to the relative movement between the object and the transducer.
This technique is different from that used by seismic devices such as accelerometers and
velocity transducers. These devices produce a signal that is proportional to the absolute
movement of the object on which they are mounted.
The non-contacting technique is particularly suitable for monitoring various types of rotating
machinery. The principal applications are:
2.2
1)
Monitoring the axial displacement of a machine shaft or rotor. This can be used to
measure the relative shaft expansion or the condition (degree of wear) of thrust bearings.
This corresponds to a static measurement.
2)
Monitoring the relative vibration of a machine shaft in a radial direction. These radial
vibrations are caused by shaft eccentricity, by the presence of an imbalance in the rotor
or by resonance.
This corresponds to a dynamic measurement.
Operating Principle
A basic proximity system is shown in Figure 2-1, with the corresponding equivalent electrical
diagram shown in Figure 2-2. The following elements can be seen:

Measuring
coil
Target
The tip of the proximity transducer contains a coil, forming part of an oscillating circuit. When
this is excited by a high frequency signal provided by the IQS 45X signal conditioner, a
magnetic field is emitted by the coil. If an electrically conducting material is moved into this
field, the characteristics of the magnetic circuit change. This causes a variation in the
amplitude of the HF signal present in the coil. The amplitude is proportional to the distance
separating the tip of the transducer and the target.
The HF signal is rectified by the IQS 45X signal conditioner, so as to provide a DC voltage
proportional to the target distance. In general, the voltage-distance characteristics are as
shown in Figure 2-3 (the characteristics for a specific transducer can be found in the relevant
data sheet). The linear part of the voltage-distance characteristics defines the measuring
range of the proximity system.

voltage (V)
When the transducer is installed it should be positioned at the optimum distance from the
target. This is usually in the middle of the linear part of the measuring range and is called the
initial gap. This setting causes the system to output a voltage of about -9 V (see Figure 2-4).
If the target vibrates, the distance separating it from the transducer varies with time. This is
seen as an AC voltage component superimposed on the DC component corresponding to the
initial gap (Figure 2-4).

Example:
A system employs a TQ 402 proximity transducer and IQS 452 signal conditioner. The target
material is VCL 140 steel and the corresponding system sensitivity is 4 mV/m. The initial
gap is set to provide an output voltage of -9 V.
If the target now vibrates periodically with a displacement of 100 m peak-peak about the
initial position, this gives rise to an AC component having an amplitude of:
100 m peak-peak x 4 mV/m = 400 mV peak-peak.
The signal conditioner output therefore varies between -8.8 V and -9.2 V.

The KYNAR sleeve may be used to electrically insulate the BOA sheathing if the latter
has to be tethered to a machine element at a different electrical potential.
The KYNAR sleeve is not intended to offer protection against water, oil, etc.
3)
2)
The 2-wire technique uses a current modulation method. A galvanic separation (e.g.
GSI 123) is required to provide a voltage-modulated signal that can be processed by the
modules in the machinery monitoring system. This galvanic separation is required
irrespective of whether intrinsically safe (Ex i) versions of equipment are used, or not.
The 3-wire technique uses a voltage modulation method, so is therefore directly compatible
with the modules in the machinery monitoring system.

The integral cable (Figure 2-6, Ref. 2) is a low impedance coaxial cable having EPF
insulation. It is terminated by a male miniature coaxial connector
Depending on the needs of the environment, the cable can be given a stainless steel BOA
sheathing protection, or a BOA sheathing with KYNAR heat shrinkable sleeve (see

Transmission Cable
The type of transmission cable (Figure 2-6, Ref. 7) used to link the signal conditioner to the
machinery monitoring system depends on various factors:
K 209 cable
A 2-core cable with PVC outer sheath and common tinned copper
braid shielding. It is intended for 2-wire transmission (current
modulation method) in non-Ex i applications.
K 210 cable
A 2-core cable with PUR outer sheath and common tinned copper
braid shielding. It is intended for 2-wire transmission (current
modulation method) in Ex i applications.
K 309 cable
A 3-core cable with PVC outer sheath and common tinned copper
braid shielding. It is intended for 3-wire transmission (voltage
modulation method) in non-Ex i applications.
K 310 cable
A 3-core cable with PUR outer sheath and common tinned copper
braid shielding. It is intended for 3-wire transmission (voltage
modulation method) in Ex i applications.
All cable types have low capacitance and resistance and are suitable for transmission over
long distances:

Influence of Temperature
The electrical conductivity and permeability of the target material as well as the cable
capacitance and other factors are dependent on the ambient temperature. For this reason the
temperature can affect the precision of results.
Refer to the corresponding data sheet for further information on the maximum temperature
drift.
3.3
Runout Effects
The runout is the sum of two error sources stemming from a non-ideal target:
1)
2)
The electrical runout, which is mainly due to an unequal distribution of the electrical
conductivity of the shaft surface (presence of magnetic spots).
During measurements with proximity transducers, these runout effects appear to show a
vibration signal that does not in fact exist, and hence falsify the measurement. These effects
can be eliminated digitally.

Mounting Constraints
It is important when mounting the transducer to observe that certain minimum distances are
respected, otherwise the performance of the proximity system will be impaired.

FOR FURTHER
General
Care should be taken when mounting the various elements of the proximity system in order
to guarantee the long-term reliability of the system.
Do not to violate the constraints mentioned in 3.4 - Mounting Constraints
when mounting the proximity transducer.
The performance of the proximity system may be impaired if this is not
respected.
The proximity transducers may be mounted inside the machine or through its housing,
depending on the characteristics of the machine. A number of mounting accessories are
available for this purpose. Only standard accessories are mentioned in this chapter. These
will not, of course, be suitable for all applications and certain modifications may need to be
made so that the accessory doesnt interfere with the measurement process. Please consult
Vibro-Meter for further information on adapting an accessory to suit your needs.
4.1.3
System Calibration
The calibration of the system should be done in two stages:
1)
A mechanical adjustment should be done while the TQ 4XX proximity transducer is being
installed. This consists of setting the initial gap, i.e. the distance between the tip of the
proximity transducer and the target when the machine to be monitored is at rest.
This is described in 4.3 - Mechanical Adjustment of the Initial Gap.
2)
An electrical adjustment should be done once the proximity system is fully mounted and
connected. This is done only in systems where relative position or expansion are
measured, and is not necessary for systems measuring relative vibration or eccentricity.
This is described in 4.11 - Electrical Adjustment of the Initial Gap (Zero Setting).

The IQS 45X Signal Conditioner and ABA 15X Industrial Housing
The IQS 45X signal conditioner supplies the electronic processing modules with a
measurement signal (either voltage-based or current-based) that is proportional to the
distance between the transducer and the target. The electronic circuitry used to do this is
contained within the IQS 45X units aluminium casing.
An industrial housing (type ABA 15X) is normally used to provide mechanical protection to
the IQS 45X. The ABA 15X also provides protection against hostile environments (dust,
water, oil, etc.). The ABA 15X is equipped with stuffing glands to allow the cables to be
passed to the IQS 45X while still keeping the housing leakproof.
Additional information on the ABA 15X units is given in the relevant data sheet.

Adaptor having a protective housing (PA 113 probe adaptor). This type will be used when
it is necessary to protect the connection between the transducers integral cable and the

2)
Adaptor having a stuffing gland (PA 103 probe adaptor). This type is used when the
TQ 4XX transducer is connected directly to the IQS 45X conditioner by its integral cable,
without the use of an extension cable.
Both these adaptors allow the transducer-target distance to be adjusted and the transducer
to be replaced from outside the machine housing. In this way, the machine does not have to
be stopped or disassembled.
NOTE : The PA 103 and PA 113 probe adaptors can only be used with reverse mount
proximity transducers, for example the TQ 412.

4.4.2.1
Feed the reverse mount transducers integral cable through the adaptor (Ref. 3), the
probe adaptor rod (Ref. 2), the nut (Ref. 4) and into the protective housing (Ref. 5). The
cable may also be fed through the threaded plate (Ref. 6) and the second nut (Ref. 7).
2)
Coat the threaded part of the transducer (Ref. 1) in industrial adhesive such as
LOCTITE 241.
NOTE : LOCTITE 241 adhesive can be used to secure elements that are susceptible to
vibrations, in order to stop them becoming loose. It nevertheless allows these elements to be
disassembled at a later stage should this be necessary.
3)
Screw the transducer (Ref. 1) into the tip of the probe adaptor rod (Ref. 2) and ensure it
is tightened.
4)
5)
Place the threaded plate (Ref. 6) in the position intended for it inside the protective
housing (Ref. 5).
6)
7)
Block the nut (Ref. 4) against the protective housing (Ref. 5). This assures the housing
is securely fixed.
8)
Bore a threaded, conical hole (3/4" NPT specification) in the machine to match the
adaptor (Ref. 3).
9)
A piece of Teflon should be applied to the conical thread of the adaptor (Ref. 3) before it
is screwed into the machine housing. This will improve the leakproof quality of the
adaptor.
10) Screw the adaptor (Ref. 3) into the machine housing and ensure it is tight.
11) Screw the nut (Ref. 7) onto the probe adaptor rod (Ref. 2), without tightening it for the
moment.
12) The transducer-target distance should now be set by moving the probe adaptor rod
(Ref. 2). Once the required distance is obtained, tighten the nut (Ref. 7) to secure the
rod.
13) Screw the stuffing gland (Ref. 8) into the protective housing (Ref. 5).
14) Feed the EA 40X extension cable through the stuffing gland (Ref. 8) and tighten the
gland to ensure the protective housing is leakproof.
15) Connect the EA 40X extension cable (Ref. 9) to the transducers integral cable.
16) Screw the cover onto the protective housing (Ref. 5).
4 - 12

4.4.2.2
Feed the reverse mount transducers integral cable through all the elements of the
probe adaptor (Refs. 2 to 7).
2)

LOCTITE 241.
NOTE : LOCTITE 241 adhesive can be used to secure elements that are susceptible to
vibrations, in order to stop them becoming loose. It nevertheless allows these elements to be
disassembled at a later stage should this be necessary.
3)
Screw the transducer (Ref. 1) into the tip of the probe adaptor rod (Ref. 2) and ensure it
is tightened.
4)
Screw the stuffing gland holder (Ref. 6) to the probe adaptor rod (Ref. 2).
5)
Screw the stuffing gland (Ref. 7) into the stuffing gland holder (Ref. 6). This ensures the
transducers integral cable is gripped and also ensures the assembly is leakproof.
6)
Screw the nut (Ref. 4) onto the probe adaptor rod (Ref. 2), without tightening it for the
moment.
7)
Screw the probe adaptor rod (Ref. 2) to the adaptor (Ref. 3).
8)
Bore a threaded, conical hole (3/4" NPT specification) in the machine to match the
adaptor (Ref. 3).
9)
A piece of Teflon should be applied to the conical thread of the adaptor (Ref. 3) before it
is screwed into the machine housing. This will improve the leakproof quality of the
adaptor.
10) Screw the adaptor (Ref. 3) into the machine housing and ensure it is tight.
11) The transducer-target distance should now be set by moving the probe adaptor rod
(Ref. 2). Once the required distance is obtained, tighten the nut (Ref. 4) to secure the
rod.

These cable feedthroughs offer IP 68 class protection. They are available with a single
stuffing gland if it is necessary just to pass a BOA protective sheathing, or a double stuffing
gland to secure a coaxial cable and a BOA protective sheathing.
The machine housing should be prepared with a threaded, conical hole to match the cable
feedthroughs adaptor. Refer to the SG 1XX data sheet for the dimensions of the adaptor, and
any additional information.
A piece of Teflon should be applied to the conical thread of the SG 1XX adaptor before it is

Cabling Techniques
The cables linking the TQ 4XX proximity transducer to the IQS 45X signal conditioner must
be carefully protected against external harmful influences.
If the proximity transducer is mounted inside the machine housing, its integral cable (with or
without flexible BOA sheathing) must be fixed every 100 to 200 mm by cable clamps (see
Figure 4-15).
Outside the machine housing, the cable should have a flexible BOA sheathing and be fixed
every 100 to 200 mm. Alternatively, it can be fed through a rigid metal cable duct.
The following points must be observed:
1)
2)
The minimum bending radius of the cable should be respected. This is 40 mm for the
integral cable and extension cable.
3)
Under no circumstances should the integral cable or the extension cable be shortened.
Any excess cable should be passed in a loop before the protective housing and fixed with
cable clamps.
4)
The transducer mounting support and the transducer should not be disassembled once
the proximity system has been installed, otherwise the transducer-target distance will be
altered and the cable twisted.
5)
The conical thread of the SG 1XX cable feedthrough should be made leaktight by adding
a strip of Teflon to it before screwing it into the machine housing.

If the TQ 4XX / IQS 45X are mounted in an explosive environment (whether the current
modulation or voltage modulation method is used).
The galvanic separation or safety barrier units are often mounted in a cabinet housing the
racks of electronic processing modules. Further information on mounting these units can be
found in the relevant instruction manual.
If a system uses several IQS 45X conditioners, it is possible to use a multi-core transmission
cable having a common shielding. Otherwise, the K 209, K 210, K 309, K 310 cables
available from Vibro-Meter should be used. Irrespective of the type of cable used, the
shielding should be connected to the chassis earth in the cabinet or rack housing the
electronic processing modules.
The maximum length of the transmission cable is determined by the type of transmission
method used:
Transmission in 2-wire mode
Do not place a transmission cable in a cable duct that is used for power
distribution cables. The measured signal may be perturbed if this is done.

The TQ + IQS system is designed for use with VCL 140 (1.7225) steel target or equivalent
materials like A 37.11 (1.0065), AFNOR 40 CD4, AISI 4137, 41 CrMo4. If special
calibration is required, the alloy has to be defined precisely or a sample of it has to be
supplied (TQ 401: 30 mm, TQ 402: 50 mm, TQ 403: 60 mm, 10 mm thick).
Generally said, a steel which does not contain more than 2% of Ni+Cr+Mo+Va has the
same characteristics as the VCL 140. The target surface should not be galvanized with
materials like NZn, Cr or Ni. The non-homogeneity of the surface can cause unwanted
signal variations. The roughness of the surface should be lower than the required
measurement precision.
The figure below shows the calibration curves for three commonly used groups of metals:
steel, stainless steel and aluminium.

Connect a power supply delivering -24 VDC between the -24 VDC and COM terminals
of the IQS 45X signal conditioner, as shown in Figure 5-2.
2)
3)
Examine the data sheet for the specific type of transducer used and note the theoretical
limits of the (linear) measuring range. For example, the theoretical limits for a TQ 402
transducer used with a target made of VCL 140 steel are 0.3 mm and 4.3 mm.
4)
Using a set of feeler gauges, set the transducer-target distance to the theoretical
minimum and maximum values, and to several values in between. Measure the current
at each setting and draw up a table showing the current-distance characteristics.
NOTE : If using electrically conducting feeler gauges, remember to remove them from the
gap between the transducer and the target before reading the current, otherwise the
measurement will be false.
5)
In the actual proximity system the current is subsequently converted into a voltage by the
GSI 123 galvanic separation. This has the following transfer function:
At minimum GAP
Current = -15 mA
Voltage = -1.2 V
At maximum GAP
Current = -20 mA
Voltage = -17.2 V
Convert the measured current values found in (4) into voltage values using the formula
above, then plot the distance-voltage characteristics.
The linear part of the measuring range and the system sensitivity (mV/m) may now be
evaluated from the graph.

If the 2-wire technique is used, the system may be checked by using the setup shown in
Figure 5-2. Proceed as follows:
a. Check the actual transducer-target distance using feeler gauges.
b. Read the current and convert it into an equivalent voltage by applying the formula
for the transfer function of the GSI 123 galvanic separation:
Voltage (V) =3.2 (V/mA) x Current (relative value in mA) + 46.8 (V)
Example: if a current of -17 mA is measured, this corresponds to a voltage of
-7.6 VDC.
c. Compare this voltage to the expected voltage. The expected voltage can be found
from consulting Figure 5-1, or from the customers own voltage-distance graph
produced by following the characterization procedure in 5-2 - Setup to characterize
a system using 2-wire transmission technique.
2)
If the 3-wire technique is used, the system may be checked by using the setup shown in

Proximity System
TQ 402 & TQ 412 / EA 402 / IQS 452
DESCRIPTION
This
proximity
system
allows
contactless
measurement of the relative displacement of moving
machine elements. It is particularly suitable for
measuring the relative vibration and axial position of
rotating machine shafts, such as those found in
steam, gas and hydraulic turbines, as well as in
alternators, turbo-compressors and pumps.
The system is based around a TQ 402 or TQ 412
non-contacting transducer and its matching IQS 452
signal conditioner. Together, these form a calibrated
proximity system in which each component is
interchangeable. The system outputs a voltage or
current proportional to the distance between the
transducer tip and the target (e.g. machine shaft).
The active part of the transducer is a coil of wire that
is moulded inside the tip of the device, which is made
of Torlon (polyamide-imide). The transducer body is
made of stainless steel. The target material must, in
all cases, be metallic.

IPC 704
Signal conditioner
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
v
e
R
w
ie
The current modulation technique allows transmission over a distance of up to 1 km. A GSI galvanic
separation unit is required for this configuration.
The electronic circuitry of the IPC 704 signal conditioner is incorporated into a moulded aluminium
enclosure. The signal conditioner has configurable
high-pass and low-pass filters and an optional inte-
y
p
o
grator to give a velocity output. Furthermore, RFI filters protect the input and output against radiofrequency interference and other electromagnetic
influences.
The IPC 704 signal conditioner converts the chargebased signal from a piezoelectric transducer into a
current or a voltage signal. This current or voltage signal is transmitted to the processing electronics via a
standard 2-wire or 3-wire transmission cable.
