Product Overview
The Bently Nevada TK-3E 177313-01-01-00 Proximity System Test Kit is a service and test kit used for checking compatible proximity measurement systems associated with rotating machinery monitoring.
In a typical shaft-monitoring installation, a proximity probe detects shaft movement and the resulting signal passes through an extension cable and associated interface electronics before reaching the monitoring system. When the displayed measurement does not match the expected machine condition, technicians need to determine whether the problem is in the sensor chain or in the machinery itself. A dedicated proximity-system test kit can be used to make this investigation more controlled.
The TK-3E is suited to commissioning, maintenance, troubleshooting, and verification work. It is not normally treated as a permanently installed monitoring component. Instead, technicians bring the kit into the measurement setup when a proximity system needs to be checked or diagnosed.
For field service teams, this type of equipment is particularly useful after replacing a probe, cable, or monitoring component, because the measurement chain can be evaluated before the machinery is returned to normal operation.

Product Features
The TK-3E 177313-01-01-00 is intended for practical testing and diagnostic work on compatible proximity measurement systems.
Key characteristics include:
- Bently Nevada TK-3E proximity system test kit
- Intended for proximity-system verification
- Suitable for commissioning and maintenance
- Useful for investigating abnormal measurement signals
- Applicable to field-service and workshop testing
- Supports controlled evaluation of compatible proximity equipment
- Useful when checking the sensor-to-monitoring signal path
- Suitable for rotating-machinery monitoring applications
- Dimensions of 195 × 299 × 248 mm
- Stated weight of 5.22 kg
The actual test procedure should be matched to the equipment under evaluation. Compatibility should be confirmed before making connections.
Working Principle
The TK-3E is used as a temporary test element within a proximity measurement setup.
A simplified arrangement is:
Test Kit → Proximity System → Monitoring Equipment
During normal operation, the proximity probe responds to shaft movement and sends a signal through the associated measurement chain. During service work, the test kit can be incorporated into the setup to establish a controlled test condition and observe the response of the connected equipment.
This is useful when a monitoring channel produces an unexpected value. For example, if a proximity channel indicates an unusual shaft position, the technician can evaluate the measurement path rather than immediately assuming that the probe has failed.
The resulting test information can be compared with the actual machine condition. This helps separate instrumentation-related problems from genuine mechanical changes in the monitored equipment.
Industrial Applications
The TK-3E 177313-01-01-00 is suited to maintenance environments where proximity-based measurement is used to monitor rotating equipment.
| Application | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| Turbomachinery Maintenance | Proximity-system verification |
| Compressor Systems | Sensor and signal-path testing |
| Pump Systems | Shaft-monitoring diagnostics |
| Power Generation | Machinery protection maintenance |
| Industrial Rotating Equipment | Condition-monitoring troubleshooting |
| Machinery Commissioning | Initial proximity-system checks |
| Maintenance Workshops | Bench testing and verification |
| Field Service | On-site diagnostic work |
Its actual use depends on the proximity equipment, monitoring architecture, and applicable service procedure.
Compatible System Components
The test kit is normally used with the components forming a complete proximity measurement chain.
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| TK-3E 177313-01-01-00 | Provides proximity-system test capability |
| Proximity Probe | Detects shaft displacement or movement |
| Probe Extension Cable | Transfers the probe signal |
| Proximity Interface Electronics | Processes the sensor signal |
| Monitoring Module | Receives and evaluates measurement information |
| Machinery Protection System | Monitors machine condition |
| Monitoring Rack | Houses compatible monitoring electronics |
| Test Cables / Accessories | Connect the test kit to the equipment under evaluation |
When troubleshooting an abnormal channel, these components should be considered together. A damaged cable or poor connection can create symptoms that resemble a sensor or monitoring-module failure.
Installation and Maintenance
The TK-3E 177313-01-01-00 is portable test equipment rather than a permanently installed monitoring module. It therefore requires careful handling during transportation, connection, and storage.
Before testing, inspect the instrument and associated accessories. The equipment under test should be identified and the intended connection arrangement established before applying the test condition.
Recommended checks include:
- Confirm the complete TK-3E 177313-01-01-00 part number.
- Verify compatibility with the proximity system under test.
- Inspect cables and connectors for damage.
- Check the test-kit housing and connection points.
- Confirm the required test configuration.
- Follow the applicable testing procedure.
- Ensure connections are secure.
- Avoid unsuitable test conditions.
- Record verification results when required.
- Protect the kit during transportation.
- Store the equipment in a suitable environment.
- Inspect accessories before subsequent use.
When a test indicates that the proximity system is functioning correctly, the actual machine should still be investigated if the operating indication remains abnormal. A functioning measurement system may be accurately reporting a mechanical condition.
Recommended Related Models
Related equipment should be selected according to the type of proximity measurement system and the maintenance task involved.

Technical FAQs
What does the “-00” suffix in TK-3E 177313-01-01-00 identify?
The complete part number should be retained when identifying or replacing the equipment. Different suffixes can represent different product configurations or revisions, so the full 177313-01-01-00 designation should be used for equipment matching.
When is a proximity system test kit more useful than simply replacing the probe?
A test kit is valuable when the cause of an abnormal measurement is unclear. It allows technicians to investigate the measurement chain systematically instead of replacing the probe before checking cables, interface electronics, and monitoring equipment.
Can the TK-3E be left connected during normal machinery operation?
The TK-3E is test equipment rather than a normal permanent component of the monitoring signal path. Its use should follow the applicable test procedure, and it should not be treated as an ordinary installed monitoring module.
What information should be recorded after completing a proximity-system test?
The equipment identification, test configuration, connected components, observed response, and any abnormal conditions should be recorded when required by the maintenance procedure. Keeping this information makes later troubleshooting and comparison easier.
