21000-34-10-20-058-04-02 | Bently Nevada | Proximity Probe HousingAssemblies
Technical Overview
The Bently Nevada 21000-34-10-20-058-04-02 is a rigid proximity probe housing assembly designed for the external mounting of proximity probes on machinery casings. Its primary function is to provide a secure, environmentally sealed, and mechanically protected housing for a non-contacting eddy current proximity probe. This specific assembly, constructed from 304 Stainless Steel, ensures robust performance in corrosive industrial environments. It positions a 3300 XL 8 mm probe at a fixed distance from the mounting surface, defined by its 3.4-inch standoff dimension. When integrated into a Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System, the probe within the 21000-34-10-20-058-04-02 housing measures shaft vibration and position. The probe transmits a high-frequency RF signal, which is modulated by the gap to the conductive target. This signal is then demodulated by a Proximitor sensor, producing a DC voltage proportional to the gap. This voltage is processed by a 3500 monitor module (e.g., 3500/42M) to provide critical data for machinery diagnostics and protection, such as radial vibration, axial thrust position, and speed.

Technical FAQ
Q: What systems is the 21000-34-10-20-058-04-02 compatible with?
A: The 21000-34-10-20-058-04-02 contains a 3300 XL 8 mm probe. This probe is a component of a complete transducer system that must also include a 3300 XL extension cable and a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor. The complete transducer system is directly compatible with Bently Nevada monitoring systems, including the 3500 Series, 3300 Series, and the Orbit 60 Series. It provides a standard analog voltage signal (typically 2 to 18 Vdc or -2 to -18 Vdc) to the monitor's input module for processing.
Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: Installation requires a machined mounting boss on the machine case with a 3/4 - 14 NPT tapped hole. The surface of the boss must be perpendicular to the shaft centerline to ensure accurate measurement. Use an appropriate thread sealant (e.g., PTFE tape or liquid sealant rated for the process temperature and fluid) on the NPT threads to create a secure seal and prevent loosening. The assembly should be tightened to the specified torque value. After mechanical installation, the probe gap must be set by adjusting the probe within the housing to achieve the desired DC voltage, typically the center of its linear range (e.g., -10 Vdc for a standard 80 mil / 2 mm range), before locking it in place.
330881-28-04-034-06-02 | Bently Nevada | PROXPAC XL Proximity Transducer
Technical Overview
The Bently Nevada 330881-28-04-034-06-02 is an integrated PROXPAC XL Proximity Transducer system. This component combines an 8 mm proximity probe, an extension cable, and a signal conditioner into a single, factory-calibrated assembly, which eliminates the need for individual component calibration in the field. The transducer operates on the eddy current principle. The probe tip emits a high-frequency radio frequency (RF) signal, which induces eddy currents on the surface of a conductive machine element, such as a rotating shaft. The transducer's internal circuitry measures the impedance changes resulting from the interaction between the RF field and the eddy currents. This impedance is directly proportional to the physical gap between the probe tip and the target surface. The integrated signal conditioner demodulates this signal and provides a continuous DC voltage output that is precisely proportional to the measured gap. This output voltage is then transmitted to a monitoring system, such as the Bently Nevada 3500 series, for analysis of vibration, axial position, or rotational speed. The construction of the 330881-28-04-034-06-02 ensures high signal integrity by minimizing interconnections, making it suitable for critical machinery monitoring applications.

The transducer is factory-calibrated for AISI 4140 steel; use with other target materials will require a different calibration or result in measurement inaccuracies.
Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: Installation requires both mechanical mounting and electrical wiring. The probe portion, with its 1/4-28 UNF thread, must be installed in a rigid bracket and its gap set relative to the machine shaft. The standard practice is to set the DC gap voltage to the center of the linear range (e.g., -10.0 V

Technical FAQ
Q: What systems is the 16710-33 compatible with?
A: The 16710-33 is specifically designed for use with the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. It is used to connect various 3500 I/O modules, such as the 3500/40M Proximitor Monitor, 3500/42M Proximitor/Seismic Monitor, and 3500/45 Position Monitor, to their corresponding external termination blocks (e.g., 3500/25 Keyphasor I/O, 3500/40 External Termination Block) or internal termination I/O modules. Compatibility is dependent on the specific I/O module and termination type being used in the 3500 rack configuration.
Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: Proper installation is critical for system performance. First, ensure all power to the 3500 rack is de-energized before installation. Securely fasten the D-sub connector of the 16710-33 to the rear of the designated I/O module using the integrated jackscrews. 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.
