Datasheet MX2030 Digital Proximity Transducer System Overview The SETPOINT Digital Proximity System (DPS) provides the performance of a fully API 670-compliant eddy-current proximity measurement system with the flexibility of digital programmability. For the first time, users have the ability to program their transducer system in the field using a custom field-generated curve as well as factory pre-programmed calibrations for a variety of probe tip diameters, manufacturers, extension cable lengths, target materials, and linear ranges. Refer to page 3 of this datasheet for additional details on device programmability. A SETPOINT Digital Proximity System consists of a probe, extension cable, and signal conditioner as follows: Probe The SETPOINT MX2030 probe is available in both 5mm and 8mm tip diameters and all standard thread sizes and body configurations required in API standard 670. Both 5mm and 8mm probes offer a full 80 mil (2mm) range, and are designed to offer full API 670-compliant performance characteristics when used with a matching MX2031 extension cable and MX2033 driver. MX2030 probes are fully interchangeable with Bently Nevada 3300 and 3300 XL 5mm/8mm probes. Extension Cable The SETPOINT MX2031 extension cable is available in a variety of lengths, with or without protective cable armor. It is compatible with both Metrix MX2030 5mm/8mm probes and Bently Nevada 3300 and 3300XL 5mm/8mm probes. Signal Conditioner The SETPOINT signal conditioner connects to a probe / extension cable pair and provides an appropriate output. It is fully compatible with a large variety of probes and cables from Metrix, Bently Nevada®, and (upon request) other manufacturers. Two signal conditioner models are available, depending on the required signal output format.

MX2034 4-20 mA Transmitter Static Current Output (mA/mm or mA/mil) This signal format is for use when vibration or axial position measurements will be directly connected to a PLC, DCS, SCADA system, or other instrumentation that accepts an ISAstandard 4-20 mA signal, without the use of a separate monitor system. It is powered by +24 Vdc, supplied within the current loop. The device is user-programmable to function as either a radial vibration transmitter (where the 4-20 mA signal is proportional to peak-peak vibration amplitude), or as an axial position transmitter (where the 4-20 mA signal...

Digitally Programmable The patented technology used in the SETPOINT DPS was pioneered by Metrix and provides numerous performance and userconvenience benefits. Developed in 2005 for our vibration transmitters, the technology has proven itself in thousands of installations worldwide. The device can be programmed using the configuration software in three ways: METHOD 1 - By selecting from a discrete list of pre-programmed calibration curves to standard 4140 target material and the following combinations of probe types and cable lengths: - Metrix MX2030 probe system, 5m length - Metrix MX2030...

Reduced Spare Parts Inventory The SETPOINT DPS reduces the requirements for spare parts by allowing a single type of driver or transmitter to be field-configured for a wide range of probe types, cable lengths, and target materials. Unmatched Interchangeability MX2030 probes and MX2031 extension cables are fully interchangeable with Bently Nevada 3300 and 3300XL 5mm/8mm probe systems, providing you with greater choice in selection of suppliers without the need to replace installed probes, cables, and drivers.

Maximum field wiring length • MX2033: 1500m (4920 ft) between signal conditioner and monitor.1 • MX2034: 4-20mA: 5000m (16,400 ft) between signal conditioner and monitor.2 Minimum Target Size Minimum Shaft Diameter Linear Range NOTES: 1. Length limit is imposed by distributed cable capacitance and corresponding frequency response roll-off. Assumes standard 18AWG 3-conductor cable with capacitance of 290 pF/m, no I.S. barriers. Total cable capacitance in excess of 450 nF will limit frequency response at monitor to less than published 8 kHz specification. Consult the manual (doc 1093672) for...
