Eddy-Current Probe Scaling and Rotor Position Monitoring
The 3300/20 processes eddy-current proximity probe signals and converts shaft displacement into proportional thrust position data. Furthermore, the monitor applies probe scaling parameters from compatible 3300 and 7200 Proximitor systems to maintain measurement accuracy across the axial movement range.
The module continuously validates the probe signal condition through its OK circuit. Therefore, it can identify probe faults, cable issues, and signal interruptions before they affect machinery protection decisions.
For TSI applications, the monitor supports gap voltage validation methods using the standard -10 VDC target condition of Bently Nevada eddy-current probe systems. Additionally, the dual-channel architecture allows engineers to analyze rotor dynamics behavior and monitor thrust movement trends during machine operation.
