Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 26530-12-10-03-018-225-22-04-00 Dual Probe Transducer System is a precision vibration and displacement measurement system designed to monitor critical rotating equipment such as turbines, compressors, and high-speed industrial motors. This system integrates two independent probes into a single assembly, providing dual-channel redundancy for accurate, real-time shaft vibration and radial displacement data.
The 26530-12-10-03-018-225-22-04-00 system belongs to Bently Nevada’s well-known 26530 series, recognized for its high accuracy, reliability, and long-term stability in harsh environments. The dual probe configuration enhances diagnostic reliability by providing independent verification of measurement results, making it ideal for applications where uninterrupted monitoring and data integrity are essential.
Its 1.0-meter probe lead length offers installation flexibility, while the robust stainless-steel housing and industrial polymer insulation ensure mechanical durability and resistance to environmental factors such as oil mist, vibration, and electromagnetic interference. This model provides differential voltage output for superior signal integrity when integrated with Bently Nevada’s 3300 or 3500 monitoring systems.
