Probe Selection Process

*  Indicates a Required Field.












What is the application?
   (Probes can measure either displacement or vibration)

Displacement

   Range = to mils

      Total = mils
Vibration

             Vibration Ampl = mils P-P

   Nominal Probe Gap = mils

 

Target Material:

4340 or 4140 Steel       400 Series Stainless       300 Series Stainless       Aluminum      
 
Other (please specify):  

What is the Target Shape?

Flat       Round       Other (please specify):

Either integrated probe, or probe with separate driver is Acceptable. 		To 300°F (149°C)
Use separate driver. Locate driver in area below 200°F (93°C). 		To 400°F (204°C)
Special high temperature probes are required. Contact Engineering
