VE Series Displacement Sensor

The newly developed VE series capacitive gap detector combined with the VT series converter is a capacitive micro-displacement gauge that measures the distance and displacement to the measurement target (conductors such as iron, aluminum, copper, and various metal platings) with high precision and non-contact. It measures the gap and displacement between the sensor electrode's end face of the VE series sensor, installed opposite the target surface, and the capacitance formed by them. Two models are available: the VT-5210 with a response frequency of 4kHz and the VT-5220 with a high-speed response of 10kHz. These devices excel in measuring and controlling shaft vibrations and surface runout of rotating machines such as turbines, electric motors, and compressors, as well as the warpage, flatness, and thickness of conductors like silicon wafers and hard disks. Due to non-contact detection, they do not impose any load on the rotating or vibrating measurement targets, nor do they alter the vibration mode. The VE sensors are available in nine types for measurement ranges from 20μm to 8mm. The capacitive non-contact displacement gauge VT-5700 series (compact type for embedded use) → *The capacitive non-contact displacement gauges VT-5210 and VT-5220 have been discontinued.

Notice of Discontinuation of Sales

The VT-5210 and VT-5220 capacitive non-contact displacement gauges have been discontinued.

Features

  • Measurement range from 20μm to a maximum of 8 mm, wide range.

  • Measurement accuracy of 0.2% of full scale (F.S.) with a combination of converter and sensor.

  • Max 10 kHz high-speed frequency response - high-speed response even to dynamic displacement changes (VT-5220)

  • It does not affect the measurement target for non-contact measurement.

  • All conductors are measurable - they are not affected by factors such as color, roughness, reflectivity, or external light.

*1 The measurement range indicates the maximum gap from the sensor's end face to the measurement target.
*2 The measurement surface of the target object requires an area larger than the sensor's outer diameter.
*3 The operating temperature range refers to the temperature range in which the sensor can function, but it is not the temperature range where linearity is guaranteed. To ensure linearity, please use at a temperature of 23±2°C.
