Bently Nevada 170133-090-00 Proximitor Sensor

Product Description

The Bently Nevada 170133-090-00 is a precision Proximitor sensor engineered for the 1701 FieldMonitor system. Designed for high-fidelity vibration and shaft displacement monitoring, it translates signals from 3300 series proximity probes into reliable machinery condition data. Ideal for rotating equipment, this sensor enables early detection of mechanical wear, imbalance, or misalignment, enhancing operational safety and reliability.

This model supports both 5 mm and 8 mm probes with a total system length of up to 9 meters, providing a linear output of 200 mV/mil (7.87 mV/µm). Its robust design allows for long-term use in industrial environments without performance degradation.

FAQ

Q: Can this sensor work with probes longer than 9 meters?
A: No, the 170133-090-00 is rated for a maximum system length of 9 meters to maintain signal fidelity.

Q: What is the difference between 5 mm and 8 mm probes?
A: The sensor supports both sizes; 5 mm probes are used in compact installations while 8 mm probes provide enhanced robustness in high-speed machinery.

Q: Can it be used outside industrial temperatures?
A: The sensor is designed for typical industrial ranges (-20°C to 70°C). Extended ranges require specialized configurations.
