The transmitter processes inputs from proximity sensors across a calibrated 7.0-metre system length to continuously evaluate axial rotor displacement. Initial commissioning requires gap voltage validation at raw signal terminals to set a static baseline bias of -10 VDC when the machine shaft is positioned at the mechanical center of its thrust bearing allowance. Precise eddy-current probe scaling converts physical rotor movement into a linear 4-20 mA current output proportional to the 0.6 - 0 - 0.6 mm physical span.
Q: How is power provided to the 991-06-70-01-00 module?
A: Operating power is supplied directly through the 2-wire 4-20 mA current loop output interface connected to the receiving control system analog input channel.
Q: Can the transmitter cable system length be altered in the field?
A: No, the transmitter is factory-calibrated for a total system length of 7.0 metres (23.0 feet); altering extension cable lengths changes capacitance and invalidates signal output accuracy.
Q: What mounting configuration is provided with the -01 option?
A: The -01 mounting option supplies factory-installed clips designed to snap directly onto standard 35 mm DIN rails inside field enclosures.
