Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 144181-50 3300 XL 5/8 mm Proximitor Sensor is a high-performance component designed for machinery protection and condition monitoring applications. It is part of the renowned 3300 XL series, which is widely regarded for its stability, reliability, and accuracy in measuring shaft vibration and position in rotating machinery.
This Proximitor Sensor works in conjunction with a matching proximity probe and extension cable to form a complete transducer system. It uses eddy current technology to detect changes in the distance between the probe tip and the target surface, typically the shaft of a turbine, compressor, pump, or generator. The output provides real-time displacement and vibration data, enabling operators to monitor machine health and respond to early signs of malfunction.
The 144181-50 model is optimized for 5/8 mm systems and is engineered for harsh industrial environments. It offers improved temperature stability, reduced noise, and compliance with API 670 standards, making it suitable for critical applications in power generation, oil and gas, and heavy industry.
