Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330906-02-12-10-12-RU 3300 NSv Reverse Mount Probe is a precision-engineered, non-contact eddy-current sensor specifically designed for reverse mounting in critical rotating machinery. This model enables installation in restricted or unconventional locations where standard probe orientation is not feasible. As part of the 3300 NSv (Narrow Side-view) series, it provides highly reliable shaft vibration and displacement measurements, ensuring early detection of mechanical issues such as rotor imbalance, misalignment, and bearing wear. Built to withstand harsh industrial environments, this probe features robust stainless-steel construction and integrated electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection, making it a critical component for predictive maintenance and machinery protection programs.

FAQ
-
How is the 330906-02-12-10-12-RU probe calibrated for accurate displacement measurement?
Each unit is factory-calibrated using an AISI 4140 steel target to ensure linearity and sensitivity. -
Can this reverse mount probe work with standard Bently Nevada Proximitor drivers?
Yes, it integrates seamlessly with the 3300 XL Proximitor and approved NSv extension cables. -
What is the maximum measurable vibration frequency for this probe?
It accurately measures vibration signals up to 10 kHz within its linear range. -
What type of output signal does the probe provide?
The output is a voltage proportional to shaft displacement, typically 0–20 V peak-to-peak. -
Is additional electromagnetic shielding required in high-noise areas?
No. Integrated EMI shielding ensures reliable performance without external shielding. -
Can the probe be installed in pressurized or oil-submerged environments?
Yes, it is rated up to 500 psi and suitable for submerged or pressurized applications. -
How is measurement accuracy maintained across wide temperature variations?
Internal thermal compensation and stainless-steel construction preserve accurate measurements across the operating range. -
Can the probe measure both radial and axial displacement?
Yes, installation orientation determines whether radial or axial vibration is monitored. -
What signal conditioning equipment is recommended for optimal performance?
A Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor or equivalent driver provides the necessary power and signal processing. -
Does the length of the extension cable affect calibration or sensitivity?
Yes, each probe is calibrated for a specific cable length, so using the correct extension cable is essential.
