Product Short Description

This product is an industrial-grade eddy current proximity vibration transmitter manufactured by Bently Nevada (Baker Hughes). It fully matches 3300 NSv series non-contact proximity probes and extension cables. The device converts mechanical radial shaft vibration displacement signals into standard 4–20 mA DC analog current signals proportional to peak-to-peak vibration amplitude. It integrates probe excitation, signal conditioning, amplification, linearization, fault detection and diagnostic signal output functions. Model 990-10-XX-02-00 with modification code 163930-01 adopts bulkhead fixed mounting, supports full-scale range of 0–10 mils peak-to-peak vibration, and is specially customized for OEM rotating machinery vibration monitoring, alarm and control system integration.

Core Functional Features

  1. Integrated Internal Proximitor Sensor Design

    No external independent proximitor module required; probe excitation, signal amplification and conditioning are fully integrated inside the transmitter, realizing compact and simplified on-site installation.

  2. 0–10 mils pp Custom Full-Scale Range (Mod 163930-01)

    Special customized measuring range for medium-amplitude rotating machinery vibration monitoring, matching OEM system alarm threshold settings.

  3. Bulkhead Fixed Mounting Structure (02 Code Configuration)

    Adopts panel/bulkhead screw mounting instead of DIN rail, suitable for machinery local control box and compact equipment internal installation.

  4. Independent Non-Interacting Zero & Span Calibration

    External adjustable zero and span potentiometers under label cover, realizing accurate loop current calibration without mutual interference.

  5. Built-In Test Input Interface

    Supports function generator signal injection, realizing fast loop output verification and on-site debugging without dismounting equipment.

  6. Complete Not OK Fault Protection Circuit

    Automatically detects probe damage, cable breakage and loose connection faults; outputs <3.6 mA low-current alarm signal to completely avoid false high-vibration alarms.

  7. Power-On Startup Inhibit Function

    Blocks abnormal transient signals during power-on startup to prevent system false alarm actions.

  8. Dual Signal Output Architecture

    Primary output: 4–20 mA analog signal for PLC/DCS control and alarm; Secondary output: dynamic vibration + gap voltage analog signal for advanced machinery fault diagnosis and analysis.

  9. High Reliability Sealed Packaging

    Fully potted internal circuit, resistant to dust, moisture and strong electromagnetic interference in harsh industrial sites.
