FAQ
1. How does the Bently Nevada 30000-00-30-18-02 measure vibration?
It operates on the eddy current principle, detecting changes in the magnetic field caused by the target shaft, converting displacement into a proportional voltage signal.
2. What is the required driver module for this probe?
It must be used with a compatible Bently Nevada proximitor (driver) module, such as 3300 XL Proximitor or similar.
3. Does cable length affect calibration accuracy?
Yes, cable length is factory-matched to the proximitor. Any change in cable length requires recalibration to maintain accuracy.
4. What is the probe’s frequency response range?
The sensor supports a frequency response from 0 to 10 kHz, suitable for most rotating machinery applications.
5. How is electrical noise minimized in the installation?
Proper grounding and shielded cables must be used, and the probe should be routed away from high-voltage lines.
6. Can this probe operate in hazardous environments?
Yes, with proper certifications and installation using approved barriers, it can be used in hazardous zones.
7. How does temperature variation affect the probe performance?
It is designed to compensate for thermal changes within the specified range (-35°C to +180°C) without significant accuracy loss.
8. What is the output signal type of the probe?
The output is an analog voltage signal proportional to shaft displacement and vibration.
9. How does the probe handle axial and radial vibration?
It measures displacement in one direction, typically radial to the shaft, but can be installed for axial measurement if required.
10. What steps are needed for recalibration after replacing the probe?
Ensure the probe and cable length match the driver specifications, then follow Bently Nevada calibration procedures using calibration tools and gap measurements.
