Required clearances and minimum distances for displacement sensors
Non-contacting eddy-current displacement sensors produce a high frequency electromagnetic
field. If electrically conductive material other than the object to be measured is located inside
this field, the measurement result will be distorted.
When assembling your non-contacting displacement sensors, strictly observe the clearances
and minimum distances illustrated in the following drawing.

If these clearances and minimum distances must be lowered for design purposes, please
contact Brüel & Kjær Vibro.
