Bently 330101-30-60-05-01-05 is part of Bently Nevada's 3300 series and is a 3300 xl 8mm proximity probes, an 8mm eddy-current transducer probe, which is described below in terms of its system, operating principle, and application:
System: The 3300 system is an on-line monitoring system for machinery protection applications consisting of an instrument frame, AC/DC power supply, system monitor, and one or more monitoring modules that provide continuous equipment condition monitoring in accordance with the American Petroleum Institute API 670 standard.
Design: The probe is usually made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials, which has good wear and corrosion resistance. Its length, diameter and other dimensions are designed in strict accordance with industry standards to ensure compatibility with other equipment.
Working principle: Based on the eddy current effect, when the probe is close to the metal surface to be measured, it will generate eddy current on the metal surface, and the size of the eddy current is related to the distance between the probe and the metal surface. By measuring the change of eddy current, it is possible to obtain parameters such as displacement and vibration of the measured object.
Performance parameters: The linear range is typically ±250 mils (approximately ±6.35mm), stable operation from -55°C to 125°C, a frequency response range of 0 to 10kHz, and accurate measurement of small displacement changes with an accuracy of ±0.1% FS.
Applications: Widely used in petroleum, chemical, electric power, metallurgy and other industries of rotating machinery, such as steam turbines, compressors, pumps, fans and other equipment vibration monitoring and displacement monitoring, can monitor the operation status of equipment in real time, timely detection of equipment failure.
