This transducer utilizes eddy-current technology to track shaft displacement, vibration, and eccentricity in small-gap environments where standard proximity sensors may lack the necessary resolution. The \"reverse mount\" configuration is specifically engineered for applications where space is constrained and the sensor must be mounted from the inner side of the machine housing or where the thread-through requirement dictates a rear-entry installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for continuous duty in rotating machinery—such as small centrifugal compressors, pumps, and auxiliary gearboxes—this probe provides a linear voltage output proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed conductive surface. By maintaining stability in demanding thermal environments and resisting chemical exposure, the 330906-02-12-05-02-05 ensures that monitoring systems receive high-fidelity data, which is essential for vibration analysis and early fault detection in high-speed industrial assets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"firstRow\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel Number\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e330906-02-12-05-02-05\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBently Nevada\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3300 NSv\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProximity Probes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.32 kg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDimensions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.2 cm x 1.0 cm x 65.0 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSensing Tech\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEddy-Current (Non-contact)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMounting Style\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReverse Mount\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-40 deg C to +85 deg C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e±0.1% Full Scale\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOrigin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUSA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHS Code\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8537101190\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrand New\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Configuration Explanation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 330906-02-12-05-02-05 part number reflects a highly specific configuration within the 3300 NSv product line. The \"02-12-05-02-05\" suffix codes determine critical physical and electrical attributes: the probe length, cable type, connector style, and mounting thread requirements. The 3300 NSv platform is distinctly calibrated for \"near-field\" applications, meaning it has an optimized linear range for small-gap measurements compared to standard 3300 XL probes. This specificity ensures that users can achieve accurate displacement readings even when the vibration amplitude is extremely fine or the clearance between components is minimal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmall Turbomachinery: Used extensively in small-frame gas turbines and high-speed motor-driven compressors where measurement space is restricted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCentrifugal Pump Monitoring: Providing precise shaft position and vibration data to detect bearing wear and cavitation issues before they lead to catastrophic failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuxiliary Power Equipment: Monitoring the health of small gearboxes and blowers in power generation facilities to optimize preventive maintenance cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaboratory \u0026amp; R\u0026amp;D Testing: Utilizing the high-resolution output of the NSv probe to characterize rotor dynamics in experimental test rigs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition Monitoring Integration: Serving as the primary input for Bently Nevada 3500 or 3300 monitoring racks to provide real-time shaft orbit and displacement visualization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSystem Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 330906-02-12-05-02-05 probe is fully compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 NSv Proximitor Sensors. It is essential that the probe is paired with the correct Proximitor\/extension cable system to maintain system-wide calibration. This probe is frequently integrated into the TSI (Turbomachinery Supervisory Instrumentation) loop, communicating through standard instrumentation cabling to monitoring racks.
