Installation Guide
- Clean the 5/8-18 threaded port before installation.
- Screw the sensor in by hand until snug.
- Tighten with a wrench to 10-15 N·m torque (do not over-tighten).
- Leave 0.5-1.0 mm gap between sensor tip and gear tooth.
- Connect the connector pins: Pin B is positive output, Pin A is ground.
Debugging & Maintenance Convenience
- No calibration needed — works right after install.
- Check output voltage with a standard oscilloscope.
- Clean the tip gently with a soft cloth every 6 months.
- Replace the sensor if DC resistance exceeds 1500 ohms.
- Easy to remove: unplug connector and unscrew manually.
Compatibility Notes
- Works with AI-TEK speed monitoring relays and most PLC counters.
- Compatible with ferrous metal targets (gears, shafts, cams).
- Output matches standard variable reluctance inputs (no external supply).
- Use with shielded twisted-pair cable for long runs over 30 meters.
Certifications & Compliance
- No agency approvals — suitable for non-hazardous industrial areas.
- Meets RoHS material restrictions.
- Tested per MIL-STD-202 for vibration and thermal shock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Why is output voltage low?
Gap too large or target speed too low. Adjust gap to 0.5-1.0 mm. - Can I use this sensor with a plastic gear?
No. Needs ferrous metal target (steel or iron gear). - What happens if I reverse polarity?
Output polarity reverses, but no damage. Swap pins A and B. - Is the cable included?
No. Only sensor with connector. Order mating pigtail separately. - How far can I run the signal cable?
Up to 100 meters with shielded twisted-pair cable.
Experience-Based Buying Guide
- For high-speed turbines (above 10,000 RPM), choose this model for stable 150V output.
- If you need agency approval (UL/ATEX), select AI-TEK 70085-1010-050 instead.
- For very long cable runs (over 50m), add an external signal conditioner.
- When replacing an old sensor, match thread size 5/8-18 and length 3.625 inches.
- For extremely low speeds (below 30 RPM), pair with a high-gain amplifier module.
Selection Helper
- Need longer thread? Look for AI-TEK 70085 series with suffix -050 (4.5 inch thread).
- Require high temperature (150°C)? Choose model 70085-1010-080.
- Want built-in cable instead of connector? Select model 70085-1010-010.
- For hazardous areas (Class I Div 1), pick AI-TEK 70085-1010-110 (IS certified).
