Information
- Bently Nevada 990-04-70-01-01 brings radial shaft motion into the machinery controller through a powered current loop, while retaining a separate diagnostic connection for the probe signal.
Transducer system: 7.0 m, compatible 3300 NSv probe and cable
Mounting: 35 mm DIN-rail clips
The two-wire loop supplies power and transmits peak-to-peak shaft vibration amplitude as 4-20 mA. The receiving control system supplies the alarm and protection logic. Non-interacting zero and span adjustments support loop calibration, while the TEST input accepts a AC signal generator for controlled output checks.
The separate PROX OUT/COM and coaxial connection provide the dynamic and gap signal for diagnosis. This output is non-isolated and must be used with the specified test arrangement. Not OK/Signal Defeat drives the loop below 3.6 mA on a faulty transducer connection; power-up and fault recovery require approximately 2-3 seconds.

Apter Power installation and verification guide covering measurement scaling, loop burden, cable matching and controlled loop tests. PDF · 5 pages.
Application scope: Use the 0-4 mils peak-to-peak scale for shaft-vibration supervision of the assigned machine point. Protective alarm logic remains in the receiving system.
Machine-point signal conditioning
Convert one radial vibration measurement into a 4-20 mA input for the controller.Calibrated loop renewal
Retain the 0-4 mils peak-to-peak receiver range and 7.0 m electrical chain when replacing the transmitter.Probe-signal diagnosis
Observe the dynamic and gap signal with the specified diagnostic connection and instrument isolation.Protection-loop verification
Use the TEST input with a AC signal generator to compare signal output and receiving indication.
Keep 0-4 mils peak-to-peak and its units in the receiver configuration.
The probe and extension together must equal 7.0 m.
Provide the required terminal voltage after wiring and receiver losses.
The diagnostic connection is non-isolated.
Distinguish below-3.6 mA fault and startup states from valid measurements.
Remove test inputs and verify stable measurement before clearing the approved bypass.

Technical notes
Protection interface: The receiving control system applies alarm thresholds to the current signal. Validate that signal path together with its configured failure-current handling.
Ground reference: Keep the diagnostic common reference controlled during testing. A grounded test instrument must not introduce an unintended connection through the buffered output.
FAQ View All FAQ
-
Which engineering value represents 20 mA from 990-04-70-01-01?The selected endpoint is 4 mils peak-to-peak, approximately 100 micrometres peak-to-peak. The receiver should interpret 4 mA as the zero-amplitude end of the span.
-
How does the DIN fitting of 990-04-70-01-01 differ from the combined mounting option?Its 01 mounting code specifies 35 mm DIN-rail clips. The combined clips-and-screws arrangement belongs to mounting code 03.
-
What is the relationship between 990-04-70-01-01 and the external protection controller?The transmitter conditions one proximity measurement into a proportional current. The controller interprets that current and executes alarm or trip logic.
-
Why should a below-3.6 mA output from 990-04-70-01-01 be investigated as a fault state?It is the Not OK/Signal Defeat level or initial power-up inhibit, rather than a normal point within the 4-20 mA measurement range.
-
Can the COM terminal of 990-04-70-01-01 be treated as an isolated instrumentation output?No. The diagnostic PROX OUT/COM connection is non-isolated. Use the prescribed isolated test arrangement with grounded equipment.
-
What ambient temperature range applies to the transmitter body of 990-04-70-01-01?The transmitter operating range is -35 to +85 degrees Celsius. Probe temperature limits are separate and must not be used as the transmitter enclosure limit.
-
Which area option is selected by the final 01 in 990-04-70-01-01?It selects CSA Division 2. Installation still requires matching the actual unit markings, wiring method and permitted environment.
-
How should zero and span be verified on 990-04-70-01-01 after replacement?Exercise the controlled test input through the required loop points and compare measured current with receiver indication. Retain the 0-4 mil scale and verify both endpoints before release.
