Proximity

Metrix®* offers an array of probes, cables and drivers that feature ProxMatch™* to ensure you have the correct probe-to-cable-to-instrument connection.  They are also interchangeable with Bently Nevada®** and other competitive probe systems.

MX8030 Proximity Probes and MX8031 Extension Cables are agency certified for hazardous areas (ATEX/CE, CSA, IECEx).  Both come standard with VibeLock™ Connectors and Triaxial Cables.  They can be used in refineries, petrochemical plants, natural gas transmission, natural gas processing, power generation plants or any oil & gas application. Contact Us for more information.

What’s New with Proximity?  TightView™ Proximity System is now available and is the latest addition to the field-proven Digital Proximity System (DPS) family of  products.  TightView was designed for installations with limited clearances around or on the side of the probe tip.  It minimizes interferences commonly found in side obstructions or reduced counter bore areas, giving you accurate, repeatable measurements. Read the application note.

Digital Proximity System

Our revolutionary Digital Proximity System (DPS) eliminates the need for dozens of different drivers and transmitters by a single, field-configurable package that can be set to work with probes and cables from a variety of manufacturers. The DPS consists of a probe, an extension cable, and a driver or transmitter.  Download brochure
