Bently Nevada 330906-02-12-10-02-00 3300 NSv Reverse-Mount Proximity Probe

The Bently Nevada 330906-02-12-10-02-00 is a high-performance 3300 NSv reverse-mount proximity probe designed for shaft vibration and position monitoring in installations with space constraints requiring backward-facing sensor placement. With a total length of 1 meter and robust construction, this probe is engineered to provide precise, reliable measurements of shaft displacement in demanding industrial environments. Its reverse-mount design allows it to fit into tight or complex machinery configurations where conventional forward-mount probes cannot be installed.

This probe utilizes eddy current sensing technology to deliver accurate, non-contact measurements critical for machinery protection systems. With a shipping weight of 1.5 kg, the probe reflects a sturdy build designed to withstand harsh operating conditions, including high temperatures, vibration, and exposure to contaminants. It is widely used in power generation, oil and gas, petrochemical, and heavy industries where machine uptime and condition monitoring are vital.
