Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and configurations for ACCUMEASURE capacitance probes, which are precision measurement tools used for non-contact displacement sensing. These probes are available in standard and custom configurations, suitable for various industrial applications.
Probe Configurations: The document outlines different probe configurations based on connector types and mounting styles. These include:
  • Integral Lead Axial (ILA): Features a low-noise, flexible silicone cable exiting axially.
  • Connector Type Radial (CTR): Includes an SMA connector with the cable exiting radially.
  • Connector Type Axial (CTA): Similar to CTR but with axial cable exit.
  • Integral Lead Radial (ILR): Radial cable exit with a maximum diameter of 9mm.
  • Pancake Square Radial (PSR): Thin design with radial cable exit.
Technical Specifications: The document provides detailed tables listing product codes, range specifications, and resolution capabilities at different frequencies (10Hz and 5kHz RMS). Key parameters include:
  • Range: Varies from 25µm to 5000µm.
  • Resolution: Specified at different frequencies, indicating precision levels.
  • Material: Stainless steel construction with no active internal electronics.
  • Temperature Ratings: Cable and probe rated from -130°C to 200°C, with options for higher temperatures up to 1200°C.
  • Pressure Rating: Standard rating of 1400kPa (200 psig).
Accessories and Calibration: Optional accessories include special low-noise probe extension cables and a KD-CH-4D calibration fixture for precise sensor positioning and calibration. The document emphasizes the importance of calibration for maintaining accuracy and provides product numbers for ordering.
Performance and Limitations: The document highlights:
  • Accuracy: ±0.01% FSR or better when calibrated to a known standard.
  • Interchangeability: Accurate within ±0.2% without recalibration.
  • Noise Considerations: Noise increases with range extension and cable length, affecting resolution.
