Page 8: Ii Model 5300 Gaging System
Microsense II Model 5300 Gaging System Functional Overview The Model 5300 is a modular, configurable, benchtop gaging system that accepts up to four Model 5130 noncontact capacitive displacement-gaging modules, a single Model 5210 velocity and acceleration module and a single display module. Rear-panel connectors provide differential analog outputs for all channels, access to a simple serial digital interface for remote calibration of the 5130 modules and a power-entry module configurable for all international power standards. -
Page 9: System Specifications
Specifications will vary depending upon range, standoff distance, and probe active sensor area. Resolution improves with larger sensor areas, reduced bandwidth and smaller ranges. Ideal Operating Temperature is 60-90°F (16-35°C). For specific resolution for your application, talk to your ADE Technologies’ sales repre- sentative. -
Page 10: Selected Measurement Concepts
Selected Measurement Concepts Microsense probes measure displacement. Measurements which may be derived using the Model 5300 gaging system are described briefly in the pages which follow. Displacement "Displacement" is the distance change between the probe and a target surface. Probe Sensing Surface Target Surface variations can be examined by measuring displacement values over the entire surface of a moving object. -
Page 11: Runout
Runout "Runout" measurements examine the variation in displacement between the probe and a surface, typically as it rotates around an axis. Axial Runout Radial Runout Flatness Runout "Radial runout" examines variations in the radius from the axis of rotation to all points on the rotating surface examined by the probe. -
Page 12: Step Height
Step Height "Step height" is an example of a two-channel measurement, where one displacement value is subtracted from another. Probe B Probe A Two probes can be used independently (without adding or subtracting displacement values) to analyze displacement in one direction with respect to displacement in another direction. This relationship may be displayed on an oscilloscope. -
Page 13: Physical Description
Physical Description The Model 5300 Gaging System consists of two major components, the main console (which includes the analog display module) and the probes. The Console The Model 5300 console provides indicators, controls and connectors for the gaging system and includes a large analog meter which monitors the output of each gaging channel. -
Page 14: The Analog Display
The Analog Display The analog display allows you to view the output of each gaging channel. The analog meter is most useful for setting the probe-to-target distance. For example, to adjust the channel A probe in its fixture, set the Display Module Selector Switch to "A"... -
Page 15: The Rear Panel
Connector Setting Power Line Voltage Although the Model 5300 system is configured by ADE Technologies before shipment, you should verify that the power entry module is set for the correct line voltage before turning the unit on. Locate the power entry module on the Model 5300 rear panel and note what voltage designation the white pin is near. -

This connector provides access to a serial digital communications bus that can be used to control calibra- tion of the Model 5130 module by means of an external computer. This function is intended for special circumstances. Contact ADE Technologies for instructions on using this feature.

Page 17: Analog Output Connector
Analog Output Connector The analog output 25-pin "D" subminiature connector provides differential output signals from all channels. Its pinout is as follows: Cable Wire Signal NOTE: Position Signals are listed by order of their cable position and not by order of their pin ch1+ number. -
Page 18: Microsense Probes
Microsense Probes Microsense noncontact probes allow precise positional measurement of stationary or moving surfaces. Signals provided by the probe are processed by circuitry housed within the console to calculate surface position and related parameters. Because the measurement is made without physical contact, probes are prevented from damaging the examined surface or altering the parameter being measured. -
Page 19: Probe Theory Of Operation
Probe Theory of Operation Microsense noncontact probes measure displacement using a capacitive principle. A sensor in the probe tip is driven with a voltage signal, forming a capacitor with the grounded target surface. Circuitry in the probe tip measures the resulting capacitance and provides a current related to probe-to-target distance. The measured capacitance is given by the following equation: C = kA/d + Co where: C is the capacitance measured between sensor and target surface,... -
Page 20: Probe Mounting
Probe Mounting Probes are mounted in one of two ways. Axial units are secured by clamping pressure evenly distributed around the probe tip. Others are mounted with screws inserted into the probe (blade type). Probes have a preferred clamping area, indicated on the probe outline drawing. Do not use screws to mount probes not designed to be screw-mounted. -
Page 21: Available Probe Styles
Available Probe Styles The Series 5000 Microsense probe family has been designed to accommodate an extensive range of target dimensions and motion envelopes, as well as a variety of fixturing and target-access limitations. Series 5000 Microsense probes are offered in a variety of shapes and sizes. Axial style is usually preferred, however other styles are available to facilitate target access. -

Page 24: Environmental Considerations
Environmental Considerations Several factors may affect measurement accuracy or repeatability. Most of these factors do not affect the Microsense circuitry directly, but alter the sample or the measurement setup. Temperature Stability Changes in temperature may cause expansion or contraction of the material being measured or the gage fixture. -
Page 25: Setting Up The Model 5300 Gaging System
Setting Up The Model 5300 Gaging System The Model 5300 gaging system allows up to four probe channels. A procedure for setting up the system for a single channel (one probe) measurement follows: 1) Turn the system on and allow a one half-hour warmup time. 2) Center each ZERO control (on each Model 5130 module) by turning the knob fully clockwise and reversing by 7½... -
Page 26: Setup Suggestions: Runout Measurements
Setup Suggestions: Runout Measurements Runout measurements examine variations in moving or rotating objects. In measurements where a large runout is expected (close to the full range of the gage), it is important to make certain that the probe is actually in range over the entire surface to be measured before attempting dynamic measurements. This ensures that an overrange condition will not occur even though the runout (change in displacement) does not exceed the range of the gage. -
Page 27: Setup Suggestions: Mastering
Setup Suggestions: Mastering The Model 5300 gaging system is not limited only to measuring displacement variations and comparing two displacement measurements to each other. The system can also be used for "mastering", which allows measurements to take on absolute, rather than relative, values. When a reference surface is positioned at a known distance from the gaging reference surface or from the probe, measurements are expressed as a value relative to this known ("master") displacement. -

Page 31: Probes
Probes The patented measurement probes that are included with the Model 5130 may be selected from a vast variety of available models which vary in diameter and operating range. The probes are transducers which form a capacitor with the target surface. Because the area of the formed capacitor is constant, variations in capacitance are related to variations in the distance between the probe and the target surface. -
