Features:
- Interface Between the Proximity Probe and Monitoring System
- Combines Capability of Probe Sensing with Integrated Proximitor Electronics
- Operates in Conjunction with 3300 XL Monitoring Systems and Bently Nevada Machinery Protection Systems
The Bently Nevada 330881-28-16-155-03-02 PROXPAC XL Proximity Transducer operates as a completely self-contained proximity probe system, providing reliable vibration measurement and position monitoring in demanding industrial environments. It continuously converts mechanical displacement into electrical signals through the integrated 3300 XL 8 mm probe with Multiple Approvals and transmits these signals directly to monitors without requiring intermediate extension cables. Seamless integration is standard with the 330881-28-16-155-03-02, however the elimination of external Proximitor housing and extension cables significantly reduces installation complexity and potential failure points. The 330881-28-16-155-03-02 has made improvements in several areas over previous 31000/32000 Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies in addition to incorporating advanced PPS thermoplastic housing material within the PROXPAC XL product line.
The 330881-28-16-155-03-02 provides essential sensing functions for machinery protection applications, and is a critical component of the measurement path, directly affecting the accurate, reliable operation of the overall monitoring system. One 330881-28-16-155-03-02 assembly is required per measurement point depending on the desired monitoring coverage. The 330881-28-16-155-03-02 features 155 mm probe penetration depth and occupies minimal installation space with its 160 mm standoff adapter configuration.
For Severe Environment applications, the 330881-28-16-155-03-02 PROXPAC XL Assembly incorporates Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) housing rated for Type 4X and IP66 environments. In addition to standard probe operation, the robust configuration also performs effective electrostatic charge dissipation. The 330881-28-16-155-03-02 housing design executes protection using the glass and conductive fiber reinforcement specified in the material composition. Using this method, the thermoplastic housing system continually withstands corrosive elements and moisture exposure. If the system operates in harsh industrial conditions (outside standard environmental tolerance levels), it will maintain structural integrity and signal reliability while providing extended service life in chemical processing, oil and gas, and power generation facilities.
The 330881-28-16-155-03-02 Bently Nevada PROXPAC XL Proximity Transducer may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
