Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 21504-00-32-10-02 is a 3300 NSv series proximity vibration probe, a fundamental component of an eddy current transducer system designed for non-contact displacement and vibration measurement on rotating machinery. Its primary function is to measure the distance (gap) between the probe tip and a conductive target material, typically a machine shaft. The probe operates by generating a high-frequency radio frequency (RF) field from its tip coil. When brought near the conductive target, this field induces eddy currents on the target's surface. These eddy currents alter the impedance of the probe's coil system. This change in impedance is detected by an associated Proximitor Sensor, which demodulates the signal into a voltage directly proportional to the probe-to-target gap. This analog voltage signal is then transmitted to a monitoring system, such as the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System, for real-time analysis, trending, and alarming.

Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 330703-00-100-10-11-CN is an 11 mm eddy current proximity probe designed for non-contact displacement and vibration measurement on rotating machinery. It functions as a core component of the 3300 XL 11 mm Transducer System, which also includes a matched extension cable and a 3300 XL 11 mm Proximitor Sensor. The system operates on the eddy current principle, where the Proximitor Sensor emits a high-frequency radio frequency (RF) signal through the probe and extension cable. This signal radiates from the probe tip, creating an electromagnetic field. When a conductive target, such as a machine shaft, enters this field, eddy currents are induced on its surface. These currents create a secondary magnetic field that opposes the primary field, causing a measurable change in the RF signal's impedance. The Proximitor Sensor demodulates this signal to produce a DC voltage directly proportional to the gap between the probe tip and the target surface. This analog voltage signal is then transmitted to a monitoring system, such as the Bently Nevada 3500 series, for real-time analysis of radial vibration, axial position, and shaft speed. The 330703-00-100-10-11-CN features a robust stainless steel case and a chemically resistant Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) tip, ensuring reliability in harsh industrial environments.

Route the cable through designated cable trays, avoiding sharp bends (maintain a minimum bend radius of 10x the cable diameter), pinch points, and proximity to high-voltage power cables to prevent physical damage and noise induction. Land the pre-stripped conductors of the pigtail end onto the correct terminals of the associated terminal block, following the wiring diagram specific to the monitor and transducer type. Ensure proper strain relief is applied to the cable at both ends. The cable's shield drain wire must be terminated correctly, typically at the rack chassis ground terminal only, to prevent ground loops per Bently Nevada system grounding guidelines.

330102-00-12-05-02-05 | Bently Nevada | 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes

Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 330102-00-12-05-02-05 is a 3300 XL 8 mm reverse mount proximity probe, a component of an eddy current transducer system designed for non-contact displacement and vibration measurement on rotating machinery. The probe functions by emitting a high-frequency radio frequency (RF) signal from its encapsulated tip. When positioned near a conductive target material, such as a machine shaft, this RF field induces eddy currents on the surface of the target. The interaction between the probe's field and the eddy currents creates an impedance change in the probe's coil, which is directly proportional to the gap between the probe tip and the target surface. This raw signal is transmitted through its integral 0.5-meter cable to a 3300 XL extension cable and subsequently to a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor. The Proximitor Sensor demodulates and linearizes the signal, producing a precise DC voltage output that corresponds to the physical gap. This conditioned signal is then supplied to a Bently Nevada 3500 Series monitoring system for continuous machine protection, diagnostics, and data logging.

Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 21000-16-05-00-115-03-02 is a rigid proximity probe housing assembly engineered to provide a secure and stable mounting for eddy current proximity probes used in machinery protection systems. Its primary function is to physically protect the probe while positioning it at a precise, fixed distance from the observed machine shaft or target surface. This specific assembly, constructed from 303 stainless steel, ensures mechanical integrity and corrosion resistance in harsh industrial environments. It integrates as a critical front-end mechanical component for systems like the Bently Nevada 3500. While the housing itself is a passive component and does not transmit an electrical signal, its dimensional accuracy is fundamental for the integrity of the measurement chain. By holding the probe stationary relative to the machine casing, it enables the connected Proximitor Sensor and monitor to accurately measure radial vibration, axial thrust position, and phase reference (Keyphasor) data. The 1.6-inch penetration length and 1-1/4 - 12 UNF mounting thread are specified for direct installation into pre-drilled and tapped holes on machine casings.
