FAQ
-
Q1: What is the maximum vibration amplitude this probe can measure?
-
A1: The probe supports vibration ranges from 0 to 50 mils (0 to 1.27 mm).
-
-
Q2: Can this probe operate in high-temperature environments?
-
A2: Yes, it operates reliably between -40°C and 120°C.
-
-
Q3: Is this probe compatible with non-Bently monitoring systems?
-
A3: While designed for 3300 XL systems, it may require signal conditioning for use with other systems.
-
-
Q4: What type of output does the probe provide?
-
A4: It provides an AC sine wave signal proportional to shaft displacement.
-
-
Q5: Can this probe be used in explosive environments?
-
A5: It is not intrinsically certified for hazardous areas; an appropriate enclosure or barrier must be used.
-
-
Q6: How does cable length affect signal quality?
-
A6: Signal attenuation may occur over long distances; recommended cable length is up to 10 m without additional signal conditioning.
-
-
Q7: Does this probe require calibration before installation?
-
A7: Yes, periodic calibration with a compatible 3300 XL monitoring system ensures measurement accuracy.
-
-
Q8: Can the probe detect axial and radial vibrations?
-
A8: It measures radial shaft displacement; axial vibration requires separate sensors or specialized mounting.
-
-
Q9: How resistant is the probe to electromagnetic interference (EMI)?
-
A9: The shielded coaxial cable design provides good immunity to EMI.
-
-
Q10: Is the probe compatible with high-speed rotating machinery?
