A Bluetooth 2.4gHz wireless capacitive-gap sensor to accurately measure the distance to a grounded metal target The system is a 2.4gHz wireless capacitive gap sensor paired with a receiving device. Both the transmitter “sensor” and receiver devices are “Bluetooth” radio frequency transceivers. They both are capable of transmitting and receiving digital packet messages. Multiple sensor and receiver devices may be operated in a close environment as they will not interfere with each other. Users can program and calibrate the Probe assemblies with MTI provided software. Features Bluetooth Wireless - Proven to work in noisy industrial environments and is immune to jamming by other wireless devices. Capacitance-based Technology - Unlike eddy current, capacitance is insensitive to target material, self-contained absolute calibration Standard PLC Interface - Easy to hook up to a PLC without any custom coding Networking Capable - Up to 4 sensors can be networked together per receiver, for rich geometrical measurement Battery-operated Compact Form Factor - Can be easily placed in hazardous or unserviceable environments like in rotating machinery About Wireless Probe System The system is a 2.4gHz wireless capacitive gap sensor paired with a receiving device. Calibrated, it measures the distance to a grounded metal target. The transmitter can be permanently mounted on a fixture or threaded probe holder using two jam nuts. The probe/transmitter unit has two connectors. One connector is to attach the antenna and the second connector is to attach the battery for portable operation. Typically ,the battery Amp hours is sized for the application.
