FAQ

1. What does this proximity probe measure?

It measures shaft vibration and shaft displacement/position using eddy current sensing without physical contact between the sensor tip and the shaft.

2. What does “NSv” stand for?

NSv stands for Narrow Side‑view, meaning the probe has a slim body and side‑viewing geometry to fit into tight or restricted spaces where standard probes cannot.

3. What does the model code “‑12‑05‑02‑05” mean?

• ‑12: Probe body length (~120 mm)
• ‑05: 0.5 meter integral cable
• ‑02: Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with standard cable
• ‑05: Agency approvals (CSA, ATEX, IECEx)

This results in a compact probe with a short cable and necessary industrial certifications.
