CTC offers FFv™ 5 mm proximity probe systems, also known as eddy current probe systems, with optional hazardous area certifications including Class 1 Division 1/Zone 1 and Class 1, Division 2. Designed for intrinsically safe operation, these PRO Line proximity probes, extension cables, and drivers ensure highly accurate shaft vibration and displacement measurements in fluid film bearing machinery, even in environments where ignition risks are present. Fully compliant with API 670 Standards, these probes effectively monitor displacement gaps ranging from 10 to 70 mils. Available in system lengths of 1 meter, 5 meters, 7 meters, and 9 meters, they provide versatile solutions for various industrial applications, from compressors to turbines.
Built for the demanding needs heavy industry like that of the power, oil, and gas industries, CTC’s hazardous-area-approved FFv™ 5 mm PRO Line proximity probe systems offer exceptional durability and reliability. These systems seamlessly integrate with all standard condition monitoring software, including Bently Nevada software, delivering comprehensive machinery protection and performance monitoring.
Please note - Class 1 Division 1/Zone 1 systems require the use of an intrinsically safe barrier, such as IS151-1B.
