The Bently Nevada TK-3e (177313-02-01) serves as a critical calibration and functional testing instrument for industrial vibration monitoring systems. This portable kit allows maintenance teams to verify the performance of proximity probes, Proximitor® sensors, and extension cables without removing them from the machinery site. We supply this unit as 100% New and Original in factory packaging, ensuring your machinery protection system maintains peak accuracy and compliance with safety standards.

Eliminate Measurement Drift: Over time, environmental factors can cause sensors to drift. The TK-3e quantifies this drift, allowing engineers to recalibrate the Proximitor® sensor to match the specific physical gap of the shaft.
Rapid Troubleshooting: Instead of replacing expensive components blindly, use the TK-3e to isolate whether a fault lies in the probe tip, the extension cable, or the Proximitor® module itself.
Field-Ready Durability: The kit eliminates the need for external power sources, enabling technicians to perform high-precision eddy current displacement verification in remote turbine decks or pump stations.
Linearity Verification: It ensures that the voltage output strictly follows the target gap distance, preventing false trips or missed vibration events in critical rotating equipment like compressors and turbines.

Does the TK-3e kit include the spindle micrometer for static calibration?
Yes, the TK-3e 177313-02-01 includes a high-precision spindle micrometer. This tool allows you to move a target button in precise increments to measure the voltage change and verify the incremental scale factor (ISF).
Can I use the TK-3e to calibrate non-Bently Nevada probes?
The TK-3e specifically targets the eddy current characteristics of Bently Nevada 3300 and 3300 XL series. While it may function with other eddy current probes, the target material and calibration curves are optimized for Bently Nevada factory standards.
What is the recommended calibration interval for the TK-3e itself?
To maintain E-E-A-T industrial standards and insurance compliance, we recommend returning the TK-3e for professional recalibration every 12 months to ensure the micrometer and internal electronics remain within factory tolerances.
Is this unit compatible with the 3300 XL NSv series?
Yes, the TK-3e supports the 3300 XL NSv (Non-Standard Viton) series. However, ensure you use the correct target material button provided in the kit to match the metallurgical properties of the shaft you are monitoring.
