Product Description

Overview

The Emerson AMS EZ 1000 is a high-precision Eddy Current Measurement System for monitoring shaft displacement, vibration, and gap in rotating machinery. Engineered for demanding industrial environments, it provides non-contacting measurement with field-configurable flexibility. The system consists of a sensor (probe), extension cable, and a converter, and is fully compatible with both Emerson and third-party sensors.

This solution meets API 670 standards, ensuring reliable protection for critical rotating equipment in power generation, oil and gas, and chemical plants. Its rugged construction allows operation in harsh conditions, including oily, high-temperature, and high-vibration environments.

Key Features

Universal Field Calibration

• Configurable for 5mm or 8mm sensors and various cable lengths.

• Supports on-site calibration via Machine Studio software or the converter’s SET button.

• Compatible with multiple target materials, including 4140 steel and other ferromagnetic alloys.

Advanced Sensor Design

• Ferromagnetic core sensors reduce cross-talk and allow dense sensor placement.

• Oil-proof and ruggedized to operate reliably in industrial environments.

Cross-Talk Elimination

• Adjustable excitation frequency minimizes interference between closely mounted sensors.

Smart Diagnostics & Connectivity

• USB interface for real-time data, configuration, and health monitoring.

• Compatible with older Emerson EZ series sensors and many 3rd-party probes.

Flexible System Options

• Available as a complete kit (sensor, cable, and converter) or individual components for inventory efficiency.

Technical Specifications

Applications

• Shaft vibration and displacement monitoring in turbines, compressors, and pumps.

• Thrust position and eccentricity measurement for rotating machinery.

• Flexible field calibration reduces downtime and spare part inventory needs.
