FOR CALIBRATING BENTLY
NEVADA MONITORS
The TK3-2E Proximity System Test Kit simulates shaft vibration and position for calibrating Bently Nevada monitors. It verifies the operating condition of the monitor readouts as well as the condition of the proximity transducer system.
Dual-Axis Simulation
No need to completely disassemble the originally fixed probe
Compatible with various probes from 5 mm to 19 mm in diameter
A properly calibrated system ensures that the transducer inputs and the resulting monitor readings are accurate. The TK-3 uses a removable spindle micrometer assembly to check the transducer system and position monitor calibration. This assembly features a universal probe mount that will accommodate probe diameters from 5 mm to 19 mm (0.197 in to 0.75 in). The mount holds the probe while the user moves the target toward or away from the probe tip in calibrated increments and records the output from the Proximitor Sensor using a voltmeter. The spindle micrometer assembly also features a convenient magnetic base for ease of use in the field.
Vibration monitors are calibrated using the motor-driven wobble plate. A swing-arm assembly located over the wobble plate holds the proximity probe in place. This assembly uses a universal probe mount, identical to that used with the spindle micrometer assembly. By using the absolute scale factor of the proximity probe in conjunction with a multimeter, the user adjusts the probe to find a position where the desired amount of mechanical vibration (as determined by peak-to-peak DC voltage output) is present. No oscilloscope is needed.

Fossil Fuel Power Plants
Calibrates critical proximity probes on steam turbine-generator sets to ensure early detection of shaft misalignment and severe vibrations.
Petrochemical & Refining
Verifies safety interlock loop integrity for high-speed process gas compressors handling hazardous and flammable media.
Oil & Gas
Tests and calibrates vibration monitoring loops on massive gas turbine-driven pumping stations located in remote areas.
Hydroelectric Power
Checks the low-speed radial vibration and thrust displacement sensors on vertical hydro-generator units.
Iron & Steel Manufacturing
Protects heavy-duty blast furnace turbo-blowers and hot rolling mill main drives from friction-induced catastrophic failures.
Pulp & Paper Mills
Protects the high-speed paper drying cylinders and boiler feed pumps from unexpected bearing collapses.
When using the TK3-2E, always verify that the motor's voltage selector switch matches the local power supply (110V/220V) before plugging it in, and never operate it in hazardous/explosion-prone areas since it is not intrinsically safe. During calibration, ensure that the standard 4140 target plate and micrometer spindle are perfectly clean and free of oil. Additionally, avoid over-rotating the micrometer to prevent the proximity probe from colliding with the target, which could damage the precision components.
The TK3-2E is an electric motor-driven Proximity System Test Kit. It is a portable calibration instrument used to simulate shaft vibration and position for testing and calibrating Bently Nevada proximity transducer systems.
What is the main difference between TK3-2E and TK3-2G?
The TK3-2E is powered by an electric motor (95-125 Vac or 190-250 Vac), whereas the TK3-2G is driven entirely by pressurized air (90 psi max). The air-driven TK3-2G is designed for hazardous environments where electrical sparks must be avoided.
How do you use the TK3-2E to simulate shaft vibration?
The TK3-2E contains a motor-driven wobble plate (Wobulator). By holding a proximity probe against the spinning wobble plate, the system introduces a mechanical dynamic vibration, allowing you to calibrate the vibration monitor's reading.
What types of proximity probes are compatible with the TK3-2E?
The TK3-2E features a universal probe holder supporting diameters from 5 mm to 19 mm, including the popular Bently Nevada 3300 XL 5mm, 8mm, 11mm, and older 7200 series proximity systems.
What power supply options does the TK3-2E support?
The TK3-2E comes with a selectable voltage switch on the motor housing, supporting both low-voltage lines (95–125 Vac) and high-voltage lines (190–250 Vac) at 50/60 Hz.
