Description：

The 21501-00-16-05-02 corresponds to a Bently Nevada 7200 Series Proximity Probe. This industrial sensor uses non-contact eddy current technology to accurately measure shaft vibration, displacement, and position in heavy-duty rotating machinery. 

The Bently Nevada 21501-00-16-05-02 is a 3300 Series 5 mm Standard Mount Proximity Probe designed for reliable shaft vibration and position measurement in applications with limited installation space. Equipped with a 1/4-28 UNF mounting thread and stainless steel armor, this probe combines compact dimensions with excellent durability for demanding industrial environments.

Unlike larger proximity probes, the 21501-00-16-05-02 offers the same linear measurement range as a standard 8 mm probe while utilizing a significantly smaller probe body. This compact design makes it an ideal solution for installations where space is restricted, including between thrust bearing pads, inside compact machinery, or other locations where an 8 mm probe cannot be accommodated.
