Information
- In a shaft-monitoring channel, Bently Nevada 21504-000-040-10-02 places the sensing tip at the target while its coaxial lead carries the radio-frequency signal to a separate conditioner.
Mounting: Standard 3/8-24 case
Lead: Unarmored coaxial connection
The PPS tip provides the 8 mm construction with resistance to direct water and lubricating-oil contact. Protect the rest of the channel from condensation and physical damage.
Set the gap against the actual machine target and verify response after a component change. Keep electrical calibration records separate from mechanical fit measurements.

Prepared by Apter Power - PDF, 5 pages. Pre-installation checks, wiring, adjustment, commissioning and fault isolation.
Platform applications: These applications describe functions of the complete 7200 measuring channel. Check the target, electrical length and monitor configuration for the installed machine.
-
Radial shaft motion
Use the matched channel to observe shaft movement associated with bearing condition, rotor imbalance or misalignment. -
Axial thrust position
Track static axial displacement in an appropriate thrust-position monitoring arrangement. -
Average radial position
Use gap-related output to assess the shaft position and rotor attitude within the bearing. -
Eccentricity observation
Measure slow-roll displacement for rotor-bow assessment using the appropriate monitor and reference arrangement.
Match integral lead, extension cable and conditioner to the installed 5 m or 9 m system configuration.
Avoid physical abuse at the probe junction and cable route. Do not treat the coaxial lead as a power-input cable.
Match the standard 3/8-24 thread and actual case dimensions without altering the complete ordered reference.
Verify system response with the actual target; AISI 4140 steel is the reference calibration material.
Keep the probe/extension within -34 to +177 deg C and the separate Proximitor within -51 to +100 deg C.
Respect the 95% noncondensing humidity limit and protect the connector and field wiring from contamination.

Technical notes
System matching: Keep the probe, extension cable and Proximitor matched as one electrical chain. Verify the installed total length before replacing a component.
Mechanical fit: Match the 3/8-24 interface and actual case geometry. Protect the unarmored lead and retain the complete 21504-000-040-10-02 marking in the assembly record.

FAQ View All FAQ
-
How does 21504-000-040-10-02 sense a conductive shaft without touching it?The 7200 Proximitor excites the probe with a radio-frequency signal. Eddy-current losses change as the target moves, and the conditioner converts the returned signal into a gap-related voltage for the monitor.
-
Which mechanical features distinguish 21504-000-040-10-02 from an armored probe?The 21504 construction uses an 8 mm tip, standard mounting and a 3/8-24 case thread with no lead armor. Protect the exposed lead against physical damage and verify the actual case geometry at the mounting location.
-
Why is the measuring-chain length important when fitting 21504-000-040-10-02?The integral probe lead and extension cable form a combined electrical length matched to the Proximitor. The 18745-03 conditioner is for a 5 m chain and the 18745-04 for a 9 m chain; retain the applicable complete combination.
-
What does the calibrated span mean for a channel using 21504-000-040-10-02?The matched 7200 system has an 80 mil, or 2.0 mm, calibrated span beginning approximately 10 mil from the probe face. This is a system measurement range, so mechanical positioning must establish the actual operating gap.
-
How can a different target material change the response of 21504-000-040-10-02?The reference system calibration uses AISI 4140 steel at +22 deg C with a -24 V DC supply and a 10 kilohm load. A different target changes the electromagnetic coupling, so the installed chain should be checked against its actual target.
-
Should a DC supply be connected directly to the lead of 21504-000-040-10-02?The coaxial probe lead connects to the matched measuring chain, not directly to an industrial DC supply. The separate Proximitor receives negative DC power and performs the signal conditioning.
-
Which component temperature limits apply around 21504-000-040-10-02?The probe and extension-cable limit is -34 to +177 deg C, while the separate Proximitor limit is -51 to +100 deg C. Locate each component within its own permitted range rather than applying the probe limit to the conditioner.
-
What protection does the PPS tip of 21504-000-040-10-02 provide in a wet installation?The 8 mm probe tip uses PPS, and its stated corrosion-resistance performance includes direct contact with water and lubricating oil. The measuring-chain environment still has a 95% noncondensing humidity limit; a robust tip does not make the entire installation submersible.
