MX2030 Digital Proximity Transducer System

Overview
The SETPOINT Digital Proximity System (DPS) provides the
performance of a fully API 670-compliant eddy-current
proximity measurement system with the flexibility of
digital programmability. For the first time, users have the
ability to program their transducer system in the field
using a custom field-generated curve as well as factory
pre-programmed calibrations for a variety of probe tip
diameters, manufacturers, extension cable lengths, target
materials, and linear ranges. Refer to page 3 of this
datasheet for additional details on device
programmability.
A SETPOINT Digital Proximity System consists of a probe,
extension cable, and signal conditioner as follows:

•

Probe
The SETPOINT MX2030 probe is
available in both 5mm and
8mm tip diameters and all
standard thread sizes and body
configurations required in API
standard 670. Both 5mm and
8mm probes offer a full 80 mil (2mm) range, and are
designed to offer full API 670-compliant performance
characteristics when used with a matching MX2031
extension cable and MX2033 driver. MX2030 probes
are fully interchangeable with Bently Nevada 3300
and 3300 XL 5mm/8mm probes.

•

Extension Cable
The SETPOINT MX2031
extension cable is
available in a variety of
lengths, with or without
protective cable armor.
It is compatible with both Metrix
MX2030 5mm/8mm probes and Bently Nevada 3300
and 3300XL 5mm/8mm probes.

Signal Conditioner
The SETPOINT signal conditioner connects to a probe
/ extension cable pair and provides an appropriate
output. It is fully compatible with a
large variety of probes and cables
from Metrix, Bently Nevada®,
and (upon request) other
manufacturers. Two signal
conditioner models are
available, depending on the
required signal output format.
