Bently Nevada 129716-XXX-040-15 MOD: 166797-0133 Modified Flexible 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe
A modified flexible proximity-probe identity whose unresolved option block must be confirmed from the label and controlled drawing.
Product Profile
Bently Nevada 129716-XXX-040-15 MOD: 166797-0133 is a configuration-controlled member of the 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer family. The 129716 base and modification reference are retained exactly, while the XXX block remains unresolved.
The full modified construction is configuration controlled. Mechanical dimensions, cable construction and final approval identity therefore require the physical label, controlled drawing and original order record.
Technical Data
System Role
Belongs to the 3300 XL 8 mm sensing platform used for non-contact shaft position and vibration measurement.
The flexible special configuration is controlled by the complete submitted string and MOD reference.
The XXX position is intentionally left unresolved rather than borrowed from a neighboring 129716 configuration.
Probe, extension cable and Proximitor sensor must form the documented complete system length.
Compatibility & Service
- Photograph the complete probe label and all companion component labels before disconnection.
- Obtain MOD 166797-0133 and the applicable controlled drawing before deciding mechanical equivalence.
- Do not decode XXX from a similar 129716 probe or assume the 040 and 15 blocks match another execution.
- After replacement, record gap voltage, cable continuity, channel polarity, dynamic response and alarm verification.
Applications
- Maintenance of an installed modified 129716 probe where the same controlled drawing applies.
- Non-contact measurement on fluid-film bearing machinery with the correct matched chain.
- Static position or dynamic vibration measurement after the exact mechanical configuration is verified.
- Keyphasor or speed service only when the installed system record identifies that role.
FAQ
Q01Why is XXX not expanded for 129716-XXX-040-15 MOD: 166797-0133?+
The submitted model leaves this configuration block unresolved. Retaining XXX prevents an unsupported mechanical assumption until the controlled drawing is available.
Q02Can a standard 129716 probe replace 129716-XXX-040-15 MOD: 166797-0133?+
Only after the controlled drawing proves the mechanical, cable and approval configuration is equivalent. The base family alone is insufficient.
Q03What should accompany a quotation request for 129716-XXX-040-15 MOD: 166797-0133?+
Send the complete label, MOD 166797-0133 drawing, installed Proximitor and extension-cable codes, mounting dimensions, target material and quantity.
Q04Which system-length rule applies to 129716-XXX-040-15 MOD: 166797-0133?+
Its probe and extension-cable combination must match the documented 3300 XL Proximitor system length.
Q05How should an accepted replacement for 129716-XXX-040-15 MOD: 166797-0133 be documented?+
Retain the final catalog identity, drawing revision, installed gap, measured response, channel configuration and protection-test result.
