This probe vibration transmitter is designed for use with a 3300 NSv proximity probe, providing a 4-20 mA signal proportional to displacement. Its signal defeat feature—pulling output below 3.6 mA within 100 µs of a Not OK condition—prevents false readings and protects downstream equipment. The 991-25-50-03-00 is a true thrust transmitter, with a full-scale range of 25-0-25 mils and a 5.0-meter system length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications Breakdown\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 991-25-50-03-00 operates from a +12 to +35 Vdc input at the transmitter terminal, with a maximum loop resistance of 1,000 Ω at 35 Vdc. Its 4-20 mA output accuracy is within ±1.5% over the specified full-scale range (typical), measured across a 250 Ω loop resistance. Current limiting is set at 23 mA typical, preventing overload. The transmitter accepts one non-contacting 3300 NSv probe and extension cable, and its linear range covers 0.25 to 1.65 mm for prox output, suitable for 0.6-0-0.6 mm or 25-0-25 mils current loop linear ranges. Environmental limits: operating temperature -35°C to +85°C, storage -51°C to +100°C. Weight is 0.43 kg (0.9 lbm).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eReal-World Applications: Axial Thrust Monitoring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn turbine and compressor trains, axial thrust position must be monitored continuously. The 991-25-50-03-00 is ideal for such applications because its 4-20 mA loop directly interfaces with PLCs or DCS systems. For example, in a steam turbine, a 25-0-25 mils range allows detecting shaft movement toward or away from the thrust bearing. The Not OK signal defeat ensures that any probe or cable fault triggers an immediate low output, not a dangerous false normal reading. This failure-safe behavior is critical in overspeed or load rejection scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Setup Guidance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMount the 991-25-50-03-00 on a DIN rail using the supplied DIN clips and screws (mounting option 03). Connect the 3300 NSv probe and extension cable to the input terminals. Power the transmitter with +12 to +35 Vdc. The two-wire 4-20 mA output connects to any compatible input card. Non-interacting external adjustments for zero and span allow simple calibration in the field. Ensure the loop resistance does not exceed 1,000 Ω, including cable. Signal defeat testing should be performed during commissioning: simulate a Not OK condition to verify output drops below 3.6 mA within 100 µs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance \u0026amp; Reliability: Built for Harsh Environments\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith an operating temperature range of -35°C to +85°C, the 991-25-50-03-00 withstands extreme conditions. Its storage range extends to -51°C to +100°C. Regularly inspect probe tip and extension cable for wear or contamination. No routine calibration is required beyond initial setup; however, loop accuracy should be verified during annual turbine overhauls. The current limiting (23 mA typical) protects against short circuits, and the Not OK defeat provides failsafe behavior—key for reducing unplanned downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSelection Guide \u0026amp; Purchasing Advice\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen ordering the Bently Nevada 991-25-50-03-00, verify your full-scale option (-25 for 25-0-25 mils), system length (-50 for 5.0 meters), and mounting option (03 DIN clips). The agency approval option 00 means no special certifications are required. Ensure your power supply provides clean +12 to +35 Vdc at the transmitter. The mating 3300 NSv probe must be ordered separately. For reliable supply, trust ubest101 as a source for genuine Bently Nevada modules. Always confirm probe compatibility and cable lengths with your system layout before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bently Nevada","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":44416875397219,"sku":"991-25-50-03-00","price":283.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.plcsourcepro.com\/products\/bently-nevada-991-25-50-03-00-industrial-automation-module","provider":"PLC Source PRO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
