Eddy-Current Probe Scaling and Vibration Signal Conversion
The 990 transmitter accepts the electrical signal from a compatible 3300 NSv proximity probe and matching extension cable. The specified system length options are 5.0 m and 7.0 m.
The transmitter scales the probe signal according to the selected vibration range. For the specified configuration, the full-scale range is 0-5 mils pp (0-125 um pp), while the proximity output scale factor is 7.87 mV/um or 200 mV/mil, with a stated tolerance of +/-10%.
The 0.5-1.75 mm probe gap range corresponds to the specified 20-55 mils mechanical clearance range. Therefore, correct probe positioning directly affects the usable measurement range and signal linearity.
The transmitter provides a proportional 4-20 mA output for connection to a machinery control system. Consequently, the receiving control system can process vibration amplitude for alarming and protection logic.

Field Installation Guidelines
- Install the transmitter using the specified 35 mm DIN rail clips and verify mechanical retention before wiring.
- Maintain the specified probe gap of 0.5-1.75 mm during probe installation and shaft-position verification.
- Use the compatible 3300 NSv probe and matching 5.0 m or 7.0 m extension cable system.
- Route the probe signal cable separately from high-current power conductors and switching circuits where practical.
- Follow the receiving control system requirements for 4-20 mA loop wiring, cable shielding, and shield termination.
- Verify loop polarity and signal continuity before commissioning the vibration input.
- Confirm the probe gap and transmitter output at the installed operating position before enabling machinery alarm or protection logic.
- Do not infer an operating-temperature limit or power-consumption value beyond the supplied specification.
