This section provides information on how to install the temperature
probe VIB 6.610 and the RPM sensor VIB 6.620 / VIB 6.622.
The installation of the PRÜFTECHNIK vibration sensors is described
in the following manual:
- Installation manual for CLD sensor (type VIB 6.1xy) – VIB 9.831.G
- Installation manual for mini sensor (type VIB 6.20x) – VIB 9.830.G
Temperature probe - VIB 6.610
The temperature probe is installed in the machine housing via thread-
ed fitting.
• Select appropriate mounting location:
Leave sufficient clearance between the mounting hole and the hous-
ing walls to allow tightening later with a wrench.
• Drill pilot hole:
Tool: 4.1 mm bit and depth gage.
Hole depth >11 mm; The hole should come close to the machine ele-
ment of interest (e.g. the bearing) without damaging it. The tempera-
ture probe can be inserted up to 48 mm deep.
• Drill out hole
Tool: 6.8 mm bit .
Hole depth: approx. 11 mm.
• Tap thread:
Tool: Fine thread tap M8 x 1.
Blow out any shavings with compressed air.
• Mount threaded fitting:
Use a number 14 wrench to tighten down the mounting bolt.
Leave the lock nut loose for now to allow insertion of the temperature
probe.
• Insert temperature probe:
Insert the temperature probe into the hole through the threaded fit-
ting.
Use a number 14 wrench to tighten the lock nut into place and the
