Keterangan
The Bently Nevada 330880-28-15-035-00-02 is a high-performance PROXPAC XL Proximity Transducer Assembly. This unit integrates a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe and a Proximitor sensor into a single, self-contained housing. By combining these components, the assembly eliminates the requirement for external extension cables and separate Proximitor housings, simplifying field wiring directly between the monitoring system and the transducer assembly.
Features
- Integrated 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe and sensor system.
- Constructed from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), an advanced molded thermoplastic reinforced with glass and conductive fibers for structural strength and electrostatic dissipation.
- Rated for Type 4X and IP66 environments, providing robust protection in severe industrial conditions.
- Eliminates the need for extension cables between the probe and sensor.
- Direct interface with monitoring equipment reduces installation complexity.
Applications
- Steam and Gas Turbines: Monitoring for shaft vibration, axial position, and eccentricity.
- Centrifugal Compressors: Precision tracking of shaft displacement during high-speed gas compression.
- Hydro Turbines: Rotational dynamics monitoring in power generation.
- Centrifugal Pumps: Early detection of bearing wear and misalignment through vibration analysis.
- Electric Motors and Generators: Ensuring bearing health and shaft alignment to prevent mechanical failure.
