6. Selection Recommendations
Compatibility: Verify integration with your existing Bently Nevada system (e.g., 3300/9000).
Environment: Choose based on temperature and vibration requirements.
Budget: Balance cost with long-term reliability (12-month warranty included).
7. Precautions
Installation: Mount the probe perpendicular to the target surface and avoid electromagnetic interference.
Maintenance: Periodically inspect cable connections and calibration if performance issues arise.
Safety: Follow local electrical codes and isolate power before servicing.
