The Bently Nevada 3300/48-03-02-02-00 Case Expansion Monitor measures casing expansion relative to a machine’s foundation. It uses two linear variable differential transformers (LVDTs) to gauge this distance and offers two adjustable alarm setpoints. This device is crucial for monitoring rotating machinery and preventing catastrophic failures.

Key Features

• Measures Casing Expansion: Tracks the growth of a machine’s casing relative to its foundation.
• Uses LVDTs: Employs two linear variable differential transformers for precise measurement.
• Provides Alarm Setpoints: Includes adjustable alarm levels to alert operators to potential issues.
• Digital Display: Shows measurement data and alarm status.

Applications

• Rotating Machinery: Monitors the condition of equipment like turbines, pumps, and compressors.
• Preventative Maintenance: Identifies potential issues before they cause failures, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
