Product Overview
The Bently Nevada 991 Thrust Transmitter is a compact, 2-wire loop-powered device that converts axial shaft displacement into a 4–20 mA signal. Designed for OEM integration, it’s ideal for small machinery like centrifugal compressors, pumps, motors, or fans. It pairs with the 3300 NSv proximity probe system to offer reliable axial position monitoring and trending.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What probe is compatible with the 991 Thrust Transmitter?
A1: The 991 is compatible with the Bently Nevada 3300 NSv proximity probe and extension cable.
Q2: What is the output signal format?
A2: The transmitter outputs a 4 to 20 mA DC signal proportional to axial shaft displacement.
Q3: Can it operate in hazardous areas?
A3: Yes, it is certified for CSA Division 2, ATEX Zone 0/2, and IECEx installations.
Q4: Is the PROX OUT signal isolated?
A4: No, it’s non-isolated. An external test adapter (122115-01) is recommended for safe diagnostics.
Q5: What is the minimum target size for accurate measurement?
A5: The minimum recommended target diameter is 9.5 mm (0.375 in).
Q6: Can the transmitter signal trigger alarms in control systems?
A6: Yes, the 4–20 mA signal can be used by external controllers for alarm logic.
Q7: What is the total loop resistance allowed?
A7: Up to 1000 ohms at 35 VDC input power.
Q8: What are the mounting options available?
A8: The unit supports DIN-rail clips and bulkhead screws.
Q9: Is it suitable for continuous monitoring applications?
A9: No, it’s designed for trending and basic protection—not full system diagnostics like System 1.
Q10: What happens during a Not OK condition?
A10: The output drops below 3.6 mA within 100 µs to signal fault conditions.
