Bently Nevada’s 24765 – 02 – 00 is designed to provide real – time data on the expansion of equipment casings. By converting the physical expansion into an electrical signal, it enables operators to monitor and manage potential issues related to thermal growth, such as misalignment, stress concentration, and seal degradation. This transducer is an essential component for maintaining the reliability of rotating equipment, heat exchangers, and other industrial machinery operating under varying temperature conditions.

Core advantages and technical highlights

Precision measurement: The 24765 – 02 – 00 utilizes advanced displacement sensor technology to achieve highly accurate expansion measurements. Its high – resolution sensing element can detect minute changes in casing expansion, providing reliable data for predictive maintenance and process control. This precision helps in early detection of abnormal thermal growth patterns, allowing for timely intervention to prevent equipment failures.

Robust construction: Built with a durable housing and high – quality internal components, the 24765 – 02 – 00 is designed to withstand harsh industrial environments. Its IP65 protection rating ensures resistance to dust and water ingress, making it suitable for use in areas with high humidity, dust, or exposure to water splashes. The transducer’s robust construction also enables it to endure mechanical vibrations and shock, common in industrial machinery operations.

Customizable scale factor: The transducer offers a customizable scale factor, allowing for easy integration into different monitoring systems and applications. This flexibility enables users to fine – tune the output signal according to their specific requirements, ensuring seamless compatibility with existing control and data acquisition systems. Whether used in small – scale industrial processes or large – scale power generation plants, the 24765 – 02 – 00 can be configured to provide the most relevant and accurate expansion data.

Wide operating temperature range: With an operating temperature range of – 20°C to +80°C, the 24765 – 02 – 00 can function reliably in diverse industrial settings. It can accurately measure expansion even in extreme temperature conditions, which is particularly important in industries such as power generation, oil and gas, and chemical processing, where equipment may operate at high temperatures or in cold environments.

Typical application scenarios

Power generation plants: In steam turbines, the 24765 – 02 – 00 monitors the thermal expansion of the turbine casing. By providing accurate data on casing expansion, it helps operators ensure proper alignment of the rotor and stator, preventing potential rubbing and subsequent damage. In boilers, the transducer tracks the expansion of boiler casings, allowing for the adjustment of support structures and preventing stress – related failures.

Oil and gas refineries: For large compressors and pumps, the 24765 – 02 – 00 measures the expansion of casings. This data is crucial for maintaining the integrity of seals and bearings, as thermal expansion can affect the clearances between moving parts. In heat exchangers, the transducer monitors casing expansion to prevent leaks and ensure efficient heat transfer.

Industrial manufacturing: In machinery used for metal processing, such as forging presses and rolling mills, the 24765 – 02 – 00 tracks the expansion of machine frames. This information is used to optimize the operation of the equipment, ensuring consistent product quality and reducing the risk of mechanical failures due to thermal stress.
