Safeguard Your Hydro Assets with the Bently Nevada 330505 Sensor

Precision Monitoring for Slow-Rotating Machinery

Hydroelectric turbines operate at very low speeds. These machines require specialized tools to detect subtle vibration signals. The Bently Nevada 330505 sensor meets this specific challenge perfectly. It captures clear data where standard sensors often fail. Consequently, engineers gain a reliable window into machine health.

Advanced Technology for Superior Detection

This sensor utilizes innovative moving-coil technology. It features integrated signal conditioning circuitry inside a rugged housing. This design produces a voltage output proportional to vibration velocity. Furthermore, it operates effectively within a range of $0.5\text{Hz}$ to $1.0\text{kHz}$. This wide frequency response ensures you never miss a critical mechanical shift.

Protecting Your Stator and Frame

Stator core vibrations often cause severe insulation damage. This friction leads to expensive repairs and unplanned outages. Therefore, you should mount the 330505 on the stator core's outer diameter. This placement allows for early detection of structural loosening. As a result, maintenance teams can intervene before serious failures occur.

Comprehensive Bearing Analysis

Bearing housing vibrations can easily distort shaft measurements. The 330505 sensor solves this problem by measuring absolute vibration. You can pair it with proximity probes for a complete data set. This combination provides a full picture of shaft-relative and bearing-absolute signals. Ultimately, this approach extends the lifespan of your critical machine components.

Simplified Integration and Reliability

The two-wire design simplifies the installation process significantly. It fits easily into existing monitoring systems without complex wiring. Moreover, the sensor withstands the harsh environments of power plants. It delivers consistent performance under demanding industrial conditions. Choose the Bently Nevada 330505 to secure your facility's operational future.
