It utilizes high-frequency eddy-current probe scaling to monitor dynamic changes in the distance between the ceramic-capped tip and the target. When matched with a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor powered by a -24 VDC supply, the loop generates a linear output signal over a standard 80 mil measuring range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor accurate rotor dynamics mapping and position analysis, a gap voltage validation is performed during physical installation. Setting the probe to the target voltage of -10 VDC positions the sensor at the midpoint of its calibrated linear range. This setup allows the 3300 XL monitor card to record precise, uninterrupted radial vibration or axial thrust displacement without signal clipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping Checklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Bently Nevada 146054-08-05-02-05 Ceramic Capped Probe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Lock washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x 3\/8-24 Jam nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Connector protective sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePhysical Installation Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHermetic Front-End Limitations\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front-end ceramic-to-metal interface is hermetically sealed to block corrosive process gases.
