Manual Part No. 502923 Issue 3
The Mini Probe is a compact, low profile, transducer
intended for measurements in confined spaces.
The product is based on a parallel spring structure
that is significantly more robust than a single leaf
arrangement. This greatly improves the reliability of
the sensor, extending its working life and allowing it
to be used in more demanding applications, such as
automatic gauges. The parallel spring also insures
a high level of repeatability, both on axis and across
axis, so that it can be used in dynamic applications
where profiling is required.
The Digital version of the Mini Probe, along with
other digital products, can be connected to a PC or
PLC via the Orbit Network system, or directly to a
digital readout.
CAUTION
The Mini Probe needs to be treated
carefully, as with any precision instru-
ment, to avoid damage during instal-
lation - please see section 5 of this
manual.
