Bently Nevada 3300 XL NSv Proximity Transducer System

Description
The 3300 XL NSv Proximity Transducer system is inten ded for use with centrifugal air compressors, refrigeration compressors, process gas compressors and other machines with tight installation requirements. The 3300 XL NSv ProximityTransducer System consists of:

a 3300 Nsv probe
a 3300 NSv extension cable
a 3300 XL NSv Proximitor sensor

The primary uses for the 3300 XL NSv Transducer System are for areas where counter bore, sideview or rearview restrictions limit the use of standard Bently Nevada 3300 and 3300 XL 5 and 8 mm Transducer Systems. it is also ideal for small target applications, such as measuring radial vibration on shafts smaller than 51 mm (2 in) or axial position on flat targets smaller than 15 mm (0.6 in). it is primarily used in the following applications on fluid-filmed bearing machines where a small shaft or reduced side-view is present:

Radial vibration and radial position measurements
Axial (thrust) position measurements
Tachometer and zero speed measurements
Phase reference (Keyphasor signals)

The 3300XL NSv Transducer system design allows it to replace both the 3300 RAM Transducer Systems and the 3000-series or 7000-series 190 Transducer system. Upgrades from the 3300 RAM system to the 3300 XL NSv system may use the existing probe, extension cable, and monitoring system with 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor. Upgrades from the 3000-seriesor or 7000 series Transducer System must replace the probe,extension cable and Proximitor Sensor with Nsv components.

The 3300XLNSv Transducer System has an Average scale Factor of 7.87 v/mm(200mV/mil), which is the most common output for eddy current transducers. Its enhanced side-view and small target characteristics give it a shorter linear range than the Bently Nevada 3300XL-series 5 and 8mm Transducer System. With The1.5mm (60 mils) of linear range exceeds thelinear range of the 3000-series 190 Transducer System.

Proximitor sensor
The 3300XL NSv Proxmitor Sensor has similar features to those found in the 3300XL 8mm Proximitor Sensor. Its thin design allows the user to mount it in either a high-density DlN-rail installation or a more traditional panel mount configuration. Improved RFl/EMl immunity allows the 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor to achieve European CE mark approvals without any special mounting considerations. This RFl immunity also prevents nearby high frequency radio signals from adversely affecting the
transducer system. SpringLoc terminal strips on the Proximitor Sensor require no special installation tools and facilitate faster, highly robust field wiring connections.

Proximity Probe and ExtensionCable
The 3300 NSv probe and extension cable are mechanically and electrically compatible and interchangeable with Bently Nevada’s previous 3300 RAM proximity probe and extension cable. The NSv probe has increased chemical resistance compared to the 3300 RAM probe,which allows its use in many process compressor applications. The side-view characteristics of the3300 NSv probe are also superior to those of the 3000-series190 probe when gapping the 3300 Nsv probe at the same distance from the probe target.

The 3300 Nsv probe comes in varying probecase confgurations, including armored andunarmored ¼-28, 3/8-24, M8 xl and M10 X1 probe threads. The reverse mount 3300 NSv probe comes standard with either 3/8 -24 or M10 Xl threads. All components of the transducer system have gold-plated brass Clickloc connectors. ClickLoc connectors lock into place and prevent the connection from loosening, The patented Tiplocmolding method provides a robust bond between the probe tip and the probe body. Bently Nevada’s patented CableLoc design provides 220 N (50lb) of pull strength and securely attaches the probe cable to the probe tip. connector protectors are recommended for use on the probe-to-extension cable connection, as well as on the cable-to-Proximitor Sensor connection. Connector protectors prevent most liquids from entering into the Clickloc connectors and adversely affecting the electrical signal.
