Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330905-00-18-05-02-05 3300 NSv Proximity Probe is a high-accuracy non-contact sensor engineered for continuous monitoring of shaft vibration and displacement in critical rotating equipment. As a member of the renowned 3300 NSv (Narrow Side-view) series, it is specifically designed for installations where space is limited yet measurement precision is essential. Built to withstand extreme industrial environments, this probe ensures early detection of mechanical faults—such as imbalance, misalignment, and bearing wear—helping operators avoid unplanned downtime and reduce maintenance costs in turbines, compressors, generators, and other mission-critical machines.
