Description
The Bently Nevada 3300/40 Eccentricity Monitor is a specialized rack-mounted module engineered for the continuous monitoring of shaft eccentricity in critical rotating machinery, such as large steam turbines and compressors. This module detects rotor bow and misalignment by measuring shaft displacement during slow-roll conditions. By providing real-time data and alarm setpoint comparisons, it serves as a vital component in predictive maintenance programs, helping to prevent catastrophic equipment failure and minimize unplanned downtime.
Features
- Designed for integration within the Bently Nevada 3300 series monitoring rack.
- Provides continuous monitoring of shaft eccentricity and slow-roll displacement.
- Features user-programmable sensitivity settings (200 mV/mil or 100 mV/mil).
- Includes integrated relay outputs for Alert and Danger alarm conditions.
- Equipped with front-panel LED indicators for rapid status identification, including OK, Bypass, Alert, and Danger states.
- Supports standard proximity probe and Proximitor sensor inputs.
Applications
This module is primarily utilized in power generation and heavy industrial environments where large rotating equipment requires precise shaft position monitoring. It is essential for detecting thermal bow or mechanical misalignment during turbine start-up, shut-down, and steady-state operation.

Installation Guidelines
- Ensure the 3300 rack is powered down before inserting or removing the module to prevent electrical damage.
- Handle the module using proper ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) precautions to protect internal circuitry.
- Verify that the proximity probe and Proximitor sensor wiring is shielded and routed away from high-voltage or high-EMI sources to maintain signal integrity.
- Ensure the module is fully seated in the rack slot and the front-panel screws are tightened to maintain proper grounding and mechanical stability.
- Confirm that the configuration settings (sensitivity and alarm setpoints) match the specific machine requirements before commissioning.
FAQ
What is the primary function of the 3300/40 module?
The 3300/40 module monitors shaft eccentricity, which is the displacement of the shaft centerline from the center of rotation, typically during slow-roll conditions to detect rotor bow.
Does this module require external power?
The module is powered directly through the 3300 series rack backplane; it consumes approximately 1.5 W of power during operation.
What type of sensors does this module support?
This specific model (3300/40-13-01-01-00-00) is configured for use with standard Bently Nevada proximity probes and Proximitor sensors.
