Functional Description
330100-50-00 is a Proximitor Sensor Sensor manufactured by Bently Nevada. This sensor is part of the 3300 XL Proximitor series, offering advanced capabilities for both static (position) and dynamic (vibration) measurements, making it an essential tool for accurately monitoring performance.
Features
- Static (Position) and Dynamic (Vibration) Measurement Capabilities: The Proximitor Sensor is versatile, enabling it to perform both static and dynamic measurements. Static (Position) capability allows the sensor to measure the absolute position of a target, making it ideal for applications where precise position sensing is required, such as monitoring rotor position or alignment. Dynamic (Vibration) is also capable of capturing vibration measurements, which are crucial for monitoring machinery health and detecting faults such as imbalance, misalignment, or wear in rotating equipment. This dual functionality ensures that the sensor provides comprehensive data, enabling users to monitor both the operational position and the dynamic behavior of the machinery.
- Ideal for Keyphasor and Speed Measurement Applications: The Proximity Sensor is well-suited for Keyphasor and speed measurement applications, which are critical for machinery monitoring systems. The Keyphasor signal is used for phase and speed measurements to track rotational velocity, synchronize vibration data, and verify rotor dynamics. This sensor provides reliable data, which is essential for real-time monitoring and early fault detection. Keyphasor Application Provides a reference pulse for accurate phase and speed measurement in rotor and machine monitoring. Speed Measurement Enables accurate rotational speed monitoring, ensuring operational efficiency and safety.
- Accurate, Stable Signal Output Across a Wide Temperature Range: The sensor excels in harsh environments, providing a stable and accurate signal output over an extended temperature range. This ensures reliable operation even in extreme conditions, such as high or low temperatures, making the sensor suitable for use in a wide variety of industrial environments, from power plants to petrochemical facilities. The sensor can perform optimally in environments with significant temperature fluctuations, offering stable and precise data over a broad range of temperatures. Delivers consistent, high-quality signal output, even in challenging operational conditions.
- High-Density DIN-Rail Installation Capability: It is compatible with high-density DIN-rail installations, allowing users to integrate multiple sensors into compact spaces efficiently. This feature makes it ideal for modern, space-conscious control panels and distribution systems, streamlining installation and improving system density without sacrificing performance.
Panel Mount Configuration
In addition to the DIN-rail option, the 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor can be mounted in a traditional panel-mount configuration. It shares an identical 4-hole mounting “footprint” with older Proximitor Sensor designs, enabling easy retrofitting or upgrades in existing systems.
- Retrofit-Friendly: The consistent mounting footprint simplifies the process of replacing older sensors without requiring new mounting hardware or modifications to the existing system.
- Electrical Isolation: The mounting base provides electrical isolation, which enhances the sensor's protection against electrical noise and prevents issues such as ground loops.
Immunity to Radio Frequency Interference (RFI)
One of the standout features of the Proximitor Sensor is its immunity to radio frequency interference (RFI). This makes it highly suitable for environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) could be problematic.
- RFI Immunity: The sensor can be installed in fiberglass housings without experiencing adverse effects from nearby radio frequency signals. This is crucial for operations where the presence of radio frequency interference could otherwise degrade signal integrity and measurement accuracy.
- Ideal for Harsh Environments: Whether installed in facilities with heavy machinery or near communication equipment, the sensor ensures that RFI does not disrupt its performance.
