Motion Sensing Probes
A motion sensing probe for detection in changes in the rotation and movement of ferrous equipment.
The Milltronics MSP-7 single setpoint system suits most industrial applications. This versatile unit can be used on tail pulley shafts, driven pulleys, motor shaft sensing, belt or drag conveyors, screw conveyor flights, bucket elevators, fans and pumps.
An NPN open collector 3-wire output allows for versatile connection to most PLC models and a large dynamic range ensures that the MSP-7 can detect changes in target speed for a variety of applications.
The Motion Sensing Probes are used with the Milltronics MFA 4p to detect motion. The different probes are specialized for different industrial environments.
