FAQ
Q1: What type of displacement measurement does the 330103-00-08-10-12-RU probe provide?
A1: It provides non-contact eddy current displacement measurement for monitoring shaft vibration and position.
Q2: Can this probe be directly connected to a monitoring system?
A2: No, it must be connected via a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor, which conditions the signal for monitoring systems.
Q3: What is the linear measurement range of this probe?
A3: The effective linear range is typically around 2 mm depending on calibration and setup.
Q4: Does this probe require field calibration?
A4: Factory calibration is provided, but system calibration may be necessary during installation to ensure accuracy.
Q5: What frequency response does the probe support?
A5: The probe supports a DC to 10 kHz frequency response, suitable for most rotating machinery monitoring.
Q6: How does it handle electromagnetic interference?
A6: The probe design incorporates shielding and insulation, ensuring performance in environments with high EMI/RFI.
Q7: Is the probe interchangeable with older Bently Nevada probes?
A7: Yes, it is backward compatible with older Bently Nevada systems provided proper Proximitor Sensors are used.
Q8: What is the maximum cable length supported?
A8: Standard lengths are available up to 9 meters, but probe + extension + Proximitor system combinations can reach longer lengths.
Q9: What standards does this probe comply with?
A9: It complies with API 670, CE, and CSA requirements for vibration and displacement monitoring systems.
