Product Details
The Bently Nevada 177313-01-01 is an electrically driven TK-3e test kit engineered for field verification and calibration of proximity transducer systems. It simulates shaft mechanical vibration and position displacement, enabling instrument technicians to check proximity probe calibration curves, monitor channel alarms, and verify system linearity without operating target industrial machinery.
Ordering Option Breakdown
The standard model number details key operational and hardware configurations. Option code 01 under Scale Units designates English calibration markings on the spindle micrometer, while option code 01 under Power Cord Type specifies a standard American power cord assembly.
Electrical and Environmental Configuration
The test kit features flexible dual AC operating voltage capabilities, accepting 95-125 VAC (50/60 Hz, 1 A minimum) or 190-250 VAC (50/60 Hz, 1 A minimum). The enclosure is rated IP54 for dust and water resistance when closed, allowing safe field operation across temperatures ranging from 0 deg C to 54 deg C (32 deg F to 130 deg F) in non-condensing humidity up to 95%.
Physical Dimensions
Built in a portable carrying case layout, the unit measures approximately 19.5 cm x 29.9 cm x 24.8 cm. Total shipping weight for the packaged kit is approximately 8 kg.

Tech & Buying Guide
Why Programmable Logic Controllers Drop into Stop Mode: An Expert Analysis
Industrial automation systems rely heavily on Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) to maintain uninterrupted production. When a PLC unexpectedly shifts from Run to Stop mode, whole manufacturing lines stall.
As control systems evolve across modern factory automation, understanding the root causes of these interruptions helps engineers minimize costly downtime. This technical guide breaks down why PLCs trip into Stop mode and provides practical strategies to mitigate system faults.
Understanding Root Causes of Unplanned PLC Stop Mode in Industrial Automation
Modern Programmable Logic Controllers manage execution through distinct operational states: Run, Stop, Start-Up, and Hold. During power-up, a controller initializes memory registers within Stop mode before briefly transitioning to Start-Up mode. During this phase, internal self-diagnostics evaluate system integrity across hardware and user programs. If the controller detects no critical faults, it enters Run mode to execute the control program continuously. However, any severe system anomaly forces the CPU back into Stop mode immediately to prevent erratic machine behavior across the plant floor.
Human-Machine Interface Design: Essential Guide to HMI Selection, Visualization, and Control System Integration
Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) serve as the primary operational window into complex industrial automation systems. Modern HMIs convert raw machine data into clear graphical displays, enabling operators to oversee entire manufacturing processes in real time. Instead of relying on physical control panels full of hardwired switches, engineers program interactive screens using intuitive graphics, dynamic color coding, and responsive touch interfaces. Over my 15 years in control systems engineering, I have observed HMIs transform from basic display screens into sophisticated command centers that drive operational efficiency across DCS and PLC environments.
