<p>A method and apparatus for controlling temperature stability of an inductor (40) by using a magnetically coupled metallic object (20) is disclosed in which a metallic object (20) is magnetically coupled to the inductor (40) by a magnetic field emanating therefrom. In one embodiment, the apparatus (100) is tailored for use in a proximity probe of a machine monitoring system and includes the metallic object magnetically coupled to a sensing coil for controlling a resistance versus temperature profile including compensating for a proximity effect resistance of the coil.</p> |
