Bently Nevada 330104-00-15-05-02-00 ClickLoc Probe

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330104-00-15-05-02-00 is a high-performance 8mm proximity probe within the 3300 XL series, specifically designed for non-contacting shaft vibration and position measurement. This model features an extended **150mm case length** and an **M10x1 metric thread**, providing a deep operational reach (650mm total) for complex mounting configurations. The **0.5-meter armored cable** is equipped with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc™ connector, ensuring IP67-rated protection and a secure link even in high-vibration environments. Manufactured in the USA, this probe is optimized for AISI 4140 steel targets, delivering exceptional linearity and thermal stability.

Core Technical Advantages

Superior Seal & Pressure Integrity

Built for high-pressure environments, the 330104-00-15-05-02-00 utilizes a Viton® O-ring that maintains containment up to 5 bar (approx. 72 psi) of differential pressure. This ensures that process fluids and lubricants remain sealed within the machine housing, protecting both the sensor and the surrounding environment.

Advanced Armored Cable Construction

The 0.5m cable is encased in a stainless steel armor jacket, providing elite protection against abrasion, crushing, and chemical exposure. With a pull force resistance of 50N and high-grade FEP insulation, the cable ensures consistent electrical stability (≤2μV/V output deviation) across its entire lifespan.

High-Precision Engineering

The probe tip is crafted from glass-reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) with a polished surface finish (Ra 0.8μm), while the housing is made of ASTM A582 compliant stainless steel. These materials ensure the probe can withstand 20g peak vibration and 10V/m RF field immunity, meeting the strictest industrial EMC standards.

Technical Specifications

Installation & Handling Guidelines

• System Calibration: This 0.5m probe must be used with an 8.5m extension cable to achieve the required 9-meter total system length for the 3300 XL Proximitor sensor.
• Gap Precision: Ensure a sensing gap of 1.27 mm (50 mils) against the target for optimal ±0.5% linearity performance.
• Connector Care: The ClickLoc™ connector is rated for 500+ mating cycles. Ensure it is clean and dry before connection to maintain the MIL-C-39012C electrical standards.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What is the significance of the 150mm case length?

A1: The 150mm case (Option 15) provides an extended reach, allowing the sensor to monitor surfaces that are deeply recessed within a machine's structure or through thick insulation layers.

Q2: Does the armor affect signal quality?

A2: No. The armor provides purely mechanical protection. Signal integrity is maintained by the high-quality FEP insulation and the gold-plated ClickLoc connector system.

Q3: Can this probe be used in high-vibration applications?

A3: Yes. It is IEC 60068-2-6 compliant and tested to withstand vibration levels up to 20g peak at frequencies up to 2kHz.
