3.0: Introduction Digital Probe, Linear Encoder and Orbit® ACS The Digital Probe is available as two product types: Orbit®3 Module and the Orbit® ACS Module. The Linear Encoder is available only as an Orbit®3 Module. The probe and encoder are factory calibrated using a laser interferometer, the calibration data is then stored in the Orbit Module. -

4.0: Probe Mounting Information Diagrams showing probe clamping method in order of preference. In all cases when clamping over the bearing area it is practical to tighten clamp screws gradually whilst actuating probe tip to the point where the smooth motion degrades then back off screw until motion returns to smooth - ensure probe is secure Collet 206333 Set screw... -
Page 6: Pneumatic Probe
4.0: Probe Mounting Information 4.2 Tip Note: 1) Care should be taken when a part is entered sideways under a probe, especially when using a spring push. The maximum contact angle should be limited to 45º to avoid applying excessive sideloads. 2) When removing or replacing tips on digital probes, displace shaft to the fully in position before applying torque. - Page 7 4.0: Probe Mounting Information Pneumatic Probes Type DJ/x/P are designed to leak a small amount of air via a vent hole this must be kept clear of obstruction. The gaiter provides protection against ingress of dirt only. The probe will remain operational with a damaged gaiter, but the integrity of the probe will be compromised.

6.0: W-Series Application Notes When applying these probes the following pertinent points need to be observed in order to main- tain the specification and to maintain continued reliable operation: 1) Air supply must be clean and dry, ie. Max 60% RH and filtered to particle size of 0.1 mm. 2) The operating environment must be clean and dry. -

Page 13: Environmental Consideration
9.0: Environmental Consideration Probes are best used with gaiters for protection, this prevents most ingress of fluids and con- tamination. For probes without gaiters then the working environment must be clean and dry. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the application is suitable for the probe type selected. It is not advisable to use the probe close to processes that generate swarf and contamination without considering additional protection, where possible, of the gaiter and cable.
