Description
Description
The Bently Nevada 21504-00-32-10-02 is an 8mm proximity probe designed for non-contacting vibration and position monitoring in industrial rotating machinery. As a core component of the Bently Nevada transducer system, this probe measures both static and dynamic distances between the probe tip and the observed target, providing critical data for machinery protection and condition monitoring.
Features
- Non-contacting measurement technology ensures long-term reliability and minimal wear.
- Frequency response ranging from 0 Hz (DC) to 10 kHz for accurate signal capture.
- Designed for integration with gap-to-voltage transducer systems.
- Standard 8mm probe diameter for compatibility with existing Bently Nevada mounting hardware.
- Equipped with a miniature male coaxial connector for secure signal transmission.
Applications
- Turbine and compressor vibration monitoring.
- Shaft position and axial displacement measurement.
- Radial vibration analysis in high-speed rotating equipment.
- General industrial machinery condition monitoring systems.
