Hardware Specifications

Shaft Vibration Signal Monitoring

The 3300/16 XY/GAP Dual Vibration Monitor processes vibration and gap measurement signals received from compatible Bently Nevada Proximitor Sensors. The module accepts displacement-related signals generated by eddy-current probe systems using the specified 200 mV/mil sensitivity scale.

The GAP channel provides monitoring of probe gap voltage conditions, allowing verification of probe operating position within the measurement range. Proper gap voltage validation is required for accurate shaft displacement measurement and vibration waveform interpretation.

Rotor Dynamics Measurement Characteristics

The 3300/16 supports XY vibration monitoring configurations where two orthogonal vibration channels are evaluated for machinery rotor behavior. The dual-channel arrangement enables analysis of radial vibration characteristics and supports rotor dynamics evaluation.

The Proximitor Sensor input interface uses eddy-current measurement principles, requiring correct probe scaling and cable installation practices. Shielding, signal routing, and grounding methods influence cross-talk suppression between adjacent vibration channels.
