Bently Nevada 991-50-XX-01-00 Thrust Position Transmitter

The Bently Nevada 991-50-XX-01-00 is a precision-engineered thrust position transmitter designed for continuous monitoring of axial shaft displacement in critical rotating machinery. This industrial-grade sensor delivers exceptional accuracy and reliability for turbomachinery protection systems, ensuring early detection of thrust bearing wear and preventing catastrophic equipment failures.

Technical Specifications

  • Model Number: 991-50-XX-01-00
  • Measurement Range: ±0.6 mm (±0.024 inches) bidirectional
  • System Length: 5.0 meters (16.4 feet) total cable length
  • Sensor Type: Eddy current proximity probe technology
  • Output Signal: -10 to +10 VDC proportional to displacement
  • Linearity: ±1% of full scale over operating range
  • Operating Temperature: -30°C to +100°C (-22°F to +212°F)
  • Frequency Response: DC to 1 kHz (-3dB point)
  • Housing Material: Stainless steel construction for harsh environments

Advanced Features & Performance Benefits

  • Dual-Direction Monitoring: Simultaneously tracks forward and reverse axial movement with ±0.6mm sensitivity
  • Extended Cable System: 5-meter integrated cable eliminates field splicing and reduces installation errors
  • High-Frequency Response: Captures transient thrust events up to 1 kHz for comprehensive machinery diagnostics
  • Temperature Compensation: Built-in circuitry maintains accuracy across wide thermal ranges
  • Vibration Immunity: Robust design filters radial vibration interference for pure axial measurement
  • Long-Term Stability: Drift-free performance over years of continuous operation
  • Hazardous Area Certification: Suitable for Zone 2/Division 2 classified locations

Industrial Application Scenarios

The 991-50-XX-01-00 thrust transmitter excels in demanding machinery protection applications:

Steam & Gas Turbines: Monitor thrust bearing condition in power generation turbines operating at 3,000-3,600 RPM. Early detection of bearing degradation prevents rotor-to-stator contact and unplanned outages costing millions in lost production.

Centrifugal Compressors: Track axial position in multi-stage compressors handling corrosive gases. Detect magnetic bearing failures or balance piston issues before they escalate into catastrophic events.

Large Electric Motors: Protect high-horsepower motors in mining, cement, and steel applications. Identify thrust bearing lubrication failures or rotor magnetic center shifts that indicate impending failure.

Pumps & Blowers: Monitor axial float in vertical and horizontal pumps handling abrasive slurries. Prevent impeller-to-casing contact that causes seal damage and product contamination.

Gearboxes: Measure gear mesh axial loading in parallel shaft and planetary configurations. Optimize gear alignment and detect tooth wear patterns affecting transmission efficiency.

Integrated Protection Solutions

When deployed within comprehensive machinery monitoring architectures, the 991 transmitter enables:

  • Predictive Maintenance: Trend axial position data to schedule bearing replacements during planned outages, reducing emergency maintenance by 60%
  • Automated Shutdowns: Interface with Bently Nevada 3500 monitoring systems for programmable alarm setpoints and emergency trip logic
  • Root Cause Analysis: Correlate thrust position with vibration, temperature, and process parameters to diagnose complex machinery faults
  • Condition-Based Monitoring: Transition from time-based to condition-based maintenance strategies, extending bearing life by 30-40%
  • Remote Diagnostics: Integrate with SCADA and plant-wide asset management systems for centralized monitoring

Installation & System Integration

The 991-50-XX-01-00 mounts directly to machinery casings using standard 3/4-16 UNF threaded fittings. The 5-meter cable terminates in industry-standard BNC or MIL-C-5015 connectors compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 XL, 3500, and System 1 monitoring platforms. Calibration is performed using precision gap gauges supplied with each unit. Installation typically requires 2-4 hours including mechanical mounting, electrical termination, and system verification.

Quality Assurance & Compliance

Every 991 transmitter undergoes 100% factory testing including linearity verification, temperature cycling, and vibration qualification per API 670 standards. Units ship with NIST-traceable calibration certificates and comprehensive documentation. Backed by Bently Nevada's global service network and genuine OEM warranty coverage. Ideal for critical spare parts inventory in refineries, chemical plants, and power stations.
