Bently Nevada Proximity Probe 30004-02-12-18-02

The Bently Nevada Proximity Probe 30004-02-12-18-02 is an eddy current proximity sensor designed for non-contact measurement of shaft vibration, axial position, and rotational speed in industrial rotating machinery such as turbines, compressors, and pumps. Part of the legacy 3000 series, this probe excels in condition monitoring and asset protection applications within oil and gas, power generation, and manufacturing sectors. Key features include a rugged stainless steel construction, high temperature tolerance, and compatibility with Bently Nevada's monitoring systems like the 3300 or 3500 series. It offers advantages over competing products, such as superior linearity, wide frequency response (up to 10 kHz), and excellent resistance to electromagnetic interference, enabling predictive maintenance to prevent costly downtime. Drawbacks may include the need for matched extension cables and drivers for optimal performance, as well as a higher initial cost compared to basic vibration sensors. This specific model configuration includes a 1/4-28 threaded case with unthreaded length of 0.2 inches, total case length of 1.2 inches, armored cable length of 1.8 meters, and standard connector options. Based on image analysis, the unit appears new or surplus, stored in original packaging with no visible wear, and includes no attached child assets like drivers or monitors.
