For condition monitoring applications, sensors need to perform well over extended periods of time. All CapaciSense sensors have patented fully captive components which limits the risk of the sensor breaking apart into the engine—even if it is damaged. The probes are of triaxial construction with a centre electrode, Inner guard and an outer screen/body. Super-alloys are employed to reach tip temperatures of 1400°C/2552°F.
All sensors are custom designed, with over 250 designs to date.
For operational use at temperatures below 200°C/392°F, the low temperature design incorporates flexible triaxial cable as opposed to mineral insulated cable....
ViewTypically for FM compressor applications or AM systems, the medium temperature range of designs have an operating temperature of up to 1000°C/1832°F. The sensors have...
