Bently Nevada TK3-2E Proximity System Test Kit
A portable test kit that simulates shaft position and vibration for calibrating Bently Nevada proximity transducer systems and monitors.
Overview
TK3-2E verifies proximity-system and monitor response by simulating shaft position and vibration. Its spindle micrometer moves a target in calibrated increments for a static transfer check, while a motor-driven wobble plate supplies a repeatable dynamic stimulus.
A universal probe mount accepts probes from 5 to 19 mm in diameter. The kit can be used with a voltmeter for the static check and does not require an oscilloscope for the published procedure.
Specifications
Features
Static transfer verification
Moves the target through calibrated distances so voltage response can be recorded against position.
Dynamic stimulus
Uses the wobble plate to provide a known mechanical vibration input for monitor comparison.
Universal probe mounting
Accommodates multiple common proximity-probe diameters with one test fixture.
Portable field workflow
Brings the mechanical target, mounting and drive components together for service checks.

Applications
Calibration checks
Comparing the proximity chain output with calibrated micrometer movement.
Monitor verification
Applying a controlled vibration signal and comparing the indicated amplitude.
Troubleshooting isolation
Separating probe-chain response from monitor configuration before a component is condemned.
Lifecycle
Inspect the kit
Confirm target condition, micrometer movement, probe clamp, motor drive and power accessories.
Build the test
Mount the probe square to the target and reproduce the approved electrical chain.
Document results
Record gap, target movement, output voltage and indicated vibration against the test procedure.
FAQ
Does TK3-2E test both static position and vibration response?
Yes. The micrometer supports static calibration and the motor-driven wobble plate supplies the dynamic vibration stimulus.
Is an oscilloscope required to use TK3-2E?
No. Baker Hughes states that a voltmeter can be used and an oscilloscope is not required for the published procedure.
Which probe sizes fit the TK3-2E universal mount?
The published mount range is 5 to 19 mm probe diameter. Confirm the probe body and mounting hardware before setup.
Can TK3-2E alone certify a machinery shutdown function?
No. It supports transducer and monitor checks, while the complete alarm, relay and machine-safety proof remains a separate approved test.
What should accompany a TK3-2E service request?
Provide the complete kit label, accessories present, target and micrometer condition, motor behavior and the probe systems to be tested.
