ACCORDING TO PUBLISHED SPECS, THE ACCUMEASURE 9000 PRODUCT OFFERS UP TO TWO DISPLACEMENT CHANNELS WHILE MICROSENSE 4810 PRODUCT OFFERS A SINGLE CHANNEL.  IN ADDITION, THE ACCUMEASURE 9000 HAS A LARGER SELECTION OF PROBES WITH RANGES OF UP TO 15 MILLIMETERS WHILE MICROSENSE 4810 PRODUCT RANGE IS UP TO +/- 2 MILLIMETERS.  WHILE LINEARITY IS SIMILAR, STABILITY AS LISTED IN EACH COMPANY’S BROCHURE, THE AS 9000 HAS MORE THAN 2X BETTER THERMAL STABILITY.

MTI’s Accumeasure 9000 capacitance displacement sensor offers up to twodisplacement channels, while Microsense 4810 product only offers a single channel.  In addition, the Accumeasure 9000 has a larger selection of probes, with ranges of up to 15 millimeters, while the Microsense 4810 probes only range up to +/- 2 millimeters.  While linearity is comparable, the Accumeasure 9000 capacitance displacement sensor has more than 2X better thermal stability
