Eddy Current Drivers

We have a range of Eddy Current Probe Drivers which, when paired with our Eddy Current Probes, form non-contact measurement systems designed to measure either the gap between the object and the tip of the probe, or vibration within the target object.

Each driver is a sophisticated piece of technology that demodulates, amplifies, and linearizes the signal from the Eddy Current Probe. The result? An output that mirrors the precise gap between the probe and target or captures the vibration of the target itself.

The most popular pairing of probe and driver is the MTN/EP080 (probe) and MTN/ ECPD (driver). Please remember, we have seven Eddy Current Probe Drivers available to choose from. You can read more about the drivers below, and we have provided an individual fact sheet on each one that is free to download.

There are seven different drivers available and the choice of which one to use depends on a number of factors. As we manufacture our drivers ourselves, we know the exact technical specifications of each one. If you need help to assess which driver is right fit for your Eddy Current measuring requirements, our team will be glad to help.
