(speed measurement). ystem composItIon The TR-NC8 measuring system is made up of three parts: • T-NC8/API series no-contact sensor • T-NC/API series extension cable • TR-NC8 transmitter No-contact sensor Extension cable TR-NC/8 - R .02/2013...
The total length of the cable between the sensor and the transmitter represents an “electrical length“, which means that each system is calibrated in the CEMB laboratory for a specific total cable length, consequently, any change in length on a pre-calibrated system will give rise to measurement errors.

Unless otherwise requested, the measuring system is calibrated in the CEMB laboratories using AISI 4140 stainless steel (42CrMo4) as reference material, which is normally used in the construction of machine shafts.
The RUNOUT is constant in phase and amplitude as the number of revolutions vary and might be added to or subtracted from the actual vibration, falsifying the measurement made.

Otherwise the sensors can be installed on brackets or rigid supports. In the latter case, be particularly careful to fasten the sensors as rigidly as possible in order to minimise vibrations due to installation. Example of fastening devices TR-NC/8 - R .02/2013...
For sensors installed inside the bearing support, it is advisable to measure the total depth of the hole using a gauge and screw in the sensor so that the mechanical gap is approximately 1.5 mm • Recommended probe case torque 10 N x m. For the first 10 threads, maximum torque 3 N x m. TR-NC/8 - R .02/2013...
5.2.1 lEctrical cabinEt A system should have a dedicated cabinet for the power devices and one for the control devices. If sharing the same cabinet, it is recommended to use a shielding wall connected to earth. TR-NC/8 - R .02/2013...
Keep a distance of > 100mm from the conductors, which are a source of disturbance. If using a cable with a larger number of conductors than necessary, all the unused conductors must be connected to earth together with the shield. TR-NC/8 - R .02/2013...
The persons that work with the TR-NC8 monitoring system must have adequate technical training and qualifications.
