Features:
- 26530 Dual Probe Transducer System
- Bently Nevada Asset Condition Monitoring
- Consists of a proximity probe and a seismic or Velomitor transducer installed at approximately the same point in a common transducer housing
The Dual Probe Transducer System provides the best measurement data when transducer housing is mounted on a portion of the bearing housing or cover that is mechanically referenced to the bearing.
For complete machinery monitoring diagnostics using orbit analysis and shaft centerline position information, two Dual Probe assemblies in an X-Y configuration are required per radial bearing. A probe support/oil sleeve is available as an option. It protects the transducer system from oil and provides additional support for the probe sleeve.
The 26530-12-10-03-018-085-24-03-00 Bently Nevada 26530 Dual Probe Transducer may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The Dual Probe Transducer System consists of a proximity probe and a seismicm or Velomitor* transducer installed at approximately the same point in a common transducer housing. This transducer system is capable of making four separate measurements:
1.Shaft relative radial position (displacement) relative to the probe mounting location, measured by the proximity probe;
2.Shaft relative radial dynamic motion (vibration) relative to the probe mounting location, measured by the proximity probe;
3.Machine casing absolute vibration measured by the seismic vibration; and Shaft absolute motion represented by the summation of the seismic signal (after integration to displacement) and the shaft relative displacement.
Comprehensive bearing housing diagnostics: Applicable to critical mechanical equipment employing large hydrodynamic bearings, requiring tracking of bearing housing structural vibrations and the raw motion of the shaft relative to clearance.
X-Y coordinate trajectory plotting: Typically mounted in pairs on individual bearing housings, spaced precisely at 90° intervals. This allows maintenance engineers to generate real-time dynamic X-Y trajectories and shaft centerline vector paths within monitoring software.
Targeted capital asset deployment: Widely used in high-risk, high-consequence mechanical equipment in the oil, gas, and power industries, including large utility steam turbines, high-pressure centrifugal gas compressors, and main boiler feed pumps.
