AMS Family of High-Precision Non-Contact Displacement Sensors
Ideal for condition monitoring of rotating machinery in extreme-pressure environments from 500 to over 22,500 psi, the AMS Family of High-Precision Non-Contact Displacement Sensors delivers high reliability and performance in high-pressure environments, enhancing any condition monitoring systems’ ability to measure and monitor runout, speed, and changes in machine vibration profiles. This helps to reduce risk and minimize damage and unplanned downtime due to unanticipated failures in the field.
Designed for a wide range of pressure environments, Kaman’s proprietary AMS, AMS-HP, and AMS-XHP precision sensing systems do not require a magnet and work with any ferro-magnetic target. This innovative design detects target position through non-magnetic, conductive, and non-conductive barriers making leak proof, penetrator free equipment instrumentation installations possible and economical without special magnets. With an RMS resolution down to 1 ?m and a standard measuring range up to 7000 ?m (7 mm), the sensors are compact and versatile.
The sensors are IP-67 rated with hermetic options available. For installation versatility, The AMS sensors come in standard IP-67 rated threaded, flanged, AS4320 pressure port compatible, and bolt head style configurations with hermetic options available. In addition, Kaman’s AMS sensors are easily tailored to meet semi-custom and custom OEM integration requirements.
