Bently Nevada 21504-00-12-10-02 7200 8mm Standard Mount Probe

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 21504-00-12-10-02 is a part of the 7200 series proximity probe systems. This specific model is an 8mm Standard Mount Probe, meticulously engineered for non-contact vibration and displacement measurements in critical rotating machinery. Known for its robustness and precision, it is widely adopted in applications that demand high-reliability monitoring solutions such as turbines, compressors, pumps, and motors in oil & gas, power generation, and industrial sectors.

This probe is designed to meet the stringent API 670 standards, providing exceptional signal stability and durability in harsh environments. The 21504-00-12-10-02 model features a standard thread mount for secure installation and is compatible with both the 7200 series proximitor sensors and extension cables. It delivers accurate measurements over a wide range of operating conditions, making it a preferred choice among maintenance and reliability engineers worldwide.

Technical Specifications

Applications

The 21504-00-12-10-02 probe is versatile and finds its utility in several high-value and high-risk machinery monitoring applications, including:

• Steam and gas turbines (vibration and axial position monitoring)

• Centrifugal compressors (shaft vibration and thrust position)

• Electric motors and generators (rotor dynamics observation)

• Pumps and fans (vibration and dynamic displacement analysis)

• Gearboxes (shaft monitoring for early fault detection)

• Industrial process equipment with rotating elements

The non-contact nature of the probe makes it ideal for continuous, long-term monitoring where probe-to-target interaction must be avoided.
