Designed for direct integration into rotating equipment control systems, the 990 2-Wire Vibration Transmitter converts shaft vibration measurements into a standard 4 to 20 mA output signal for PLC, DCS, and machinery protection applications. The transmitter operates with a matching 3300 NSv proximity probe and extension cable assembly to monitor peak-to-peak vibration levels on compressors, motors, pumps, and industrial fans.
The Bently Nevada transmitter combines signal conditioning electronics and the Proximitor sensor into a single compact housing, reducing external hardware requirements and simplifying installation inside OEM equipment packages. Its potted construction supports operation in high-humidity environments, while the integrated PROX OUT connection allows access to dynamic vibration signals for troubleshooting and machinery diagnostics.
The 990-05-50-01-00 configuration includes a 5.0 metre system length, 35 mm DIN rail mounting clips, and standard non-hazardous area approval configuration.

Installation Guidelines
Mount the transmitter on a grounded DIN rail inside a suitable industrial enclosure.
Maintain correct probe target gap before system calibration.
Route transducer cables separately from high-voltage wiring.
Use shielded cable practices to reduce electrical interference.
Protect the PROX OUT connector from moisture contamination.
Verify loop power supply voltage before startup.
Avoid excessive probe thread engagement during installation.
Use isolated diagnostic equipment when monitoring vibration waveforms.
Ensure proper ventilation around control cabinet components.
Confirm loop resistance remains within specified limits.
FAQ
What signal does the transmitter output? The device provides a proportional 4 to 20 mA vibration signal.
Which probe family is supported? The transmitter is designed for use with 3300 NSv proximity probes.
Can the unit be mounted on DIN rail? Yes. This configuration includes 35 mm DIN rail clips.
Is an external proximitor required? No. The Proximitor sensor electronics are integrated into the housing.
