Metrix MX2033 User manual
Digital Proximity System
Operaon and Maintenance Manual
100576 • REV C
The DPS (Digital Proximity System) devices
consists of two modules: the MX2033 and
MX2034. The MX2033 is a convenonal
3-wire driver while the MX2034 is a two-
wire current loop transmier. Users can con-
gure either unit to measure peak-to-peak
vibraon, gap distance, or rotaonal speed.
These products are used in conjuncon with
a proximity probe and extension cable to
measure the vibraon levels, gap distances,
or rotaonal speed of machinery shas. Us-
ers can congure the units via a USB cable
and conguraon soware.

1.3 RECEIVING, INSPECTING AND HANDLING THE SYSTEM
Metrix ships the probe, extension cable, and driver as separate units that the user intercon-
nects at the installaon site. Carefully remove all equipment from the shipping containers
and inspect it for shipping damage. If you see shipping damage, le a claim with the carrier
and submit a copy to Metrix Instrument Co. Include part numbers and serial numbers on all
correspondence. If no damage is apparent and the equipment is not going to be used imme-
diately, return the equipment to the shipping containers and reseal unl ready for use. Store
the equipment in an environment that is free from potenally damaging condions such as
extreme temperature, excessive humidity, or a corrosive atmosphere.
2. OVERVIEW
The Metrix Digital Proximity System module comes in two versions:
• MX2033 – 3-wire proximity driver
• MX2034 – 2-wire, loop powered proximity transmier
A complete DPS system requires a DPS module, a proximity probe, and an extension cable.
You can congure the MX2033 and MX2034 modules to operate with the probe and cable
combinaons shown in Table 1.

The secons below provide more module informaon.
2.1
The MX2033 signal output is proporonal to the distance between the probe p and the
target material. The signal output follows API Standard 670 and is compable with most
connuous vibraon monitoring systems. The MX2033 uses -24Vdc excitaon and provides
an output scale factor of 7.87 mV/mm (200mV/mil) for 5 mm and 8mm probes.
2.2
The MX2034 provides an ISA standard 4-20 mA signal proporonal to vibraon, axial posi-
on sha speed (RPM) for direct connecon to a PLC, DCS, SCADA system, or other instru-
mentaon without requiring a separate monitor system. The MX2034 is powered by +24
Vdc, supplied within the current loop. The MX2034 is user congurable to funcon as either
a radial vibraon transmier (where the 4-20 mA signal is proporonal to peak-peak vibra-
on amplitude), as an axial posion transmier (where the 4-20 mA signal is proporonal to
average probe gap) or as a speed (RPM) transmier (where the 4-20 mA signal is propor-
onal to the speed of a machine). For convenience when connecng to signal analyzers,
portable data collectors, and test instrumentaon, the raw vibraon signal is available at
a short-circuit protected BNC connector. Refer to secon 3.6 of this manual for important
informaon and cauons regarding proper use of this connector.
