Bently Nevada 330104-00-22-10-02-00 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe

Product Overview

The 330104-00-22-10-02-00 is a high-performance 8mm proximity probe from the industry-leading Bently Nevada 3300 XL series. This "Made in the U.S.A." sensor is specifically configured for applications requiring an extended reach, featuring a 220mm overall case length. With its rugged M10 x 1 threaded stainless steel housing and integrated armor, this probe provides exceptional durability and precision for radial vibration and axial position monitoring in large rotating machinery, such as deep-set bearings in steam turbines, compressors, and industrial pumps.

Core Technical Advantages

Engineered for industrial longevity, this probe utilizes a Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) tip and an AISI 303/304 stainless steel case, ensuring a high-pressure seal through an internal Viton® O-ring. The 1.0-meter total cable length is protected by stainless steel armor, making it ideal for harsh environments where mechanical protection is paramount. The electrical design features a stable 50 Ω output resistance and superior supply sensitivity, while the miniature coaxial ClickLoc™ connector provides a secure, vibration-proof electrical path to your Proximitor® sensor.

Technical Specifications

Installation & Engineering Guide

Due to the extended 220mm case length, ensure that the mounting bracket or housing provides adequate support along the probe body to minimize vibration-induced stress. The probe should be gapped at 1.27 mm (50 mils) against an AISI 4140 steel target for standard calibration accuracy. When wiring, ensure the power supply provides -23 Vdc to -26 Vdc (with barriers) to maintain the full linear measurement range. The ClickLoc™ connector must be fully engaged until a tactile "click" is felt, ensuring a moisture-resistant seal and a continuous electrical connection of 7.59 ± 0.50 Ω nominal DC resistance.

Engineering Advantages

Bently Nevada’s 3300 XL series is recognized globally for its interchangeability and thermal stability. This probe’s ability to seal differential pressure between the tip and case allows it to be installed directly into pressurized environments, such as gearboxes or lubrication systems. The combination of high-grade stainless steel and Viton® sealing ensures the probe remains impervious to most industrial solvents and oils. By choosing the 3300 XL system, you are implementing a deterministic monitoring solution that supports reliable predictive maintenance and machinery safety protocols.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What is the benefit of the 220mm case length (Option 22)?
A1: This extra-long case length is specifically designed for machinery with thick outer shells or deep-seated bearing housings, allowing the probe tip to reach the target surface while keeping the connector accessible outside the machine housing.

Q2: Can I get a Certificate of Origin (COO) for this product?
A2: Yes. Since this product is manufactured in the USA, an official Certificate of Origin (COO) can be provided upon request to facilitate international customs and trade compliance.

Q3: Does this probe require a specific extension cable?
A3: To ensure the system accuracy of ±1% or better, it is highly recommended to use a Bently Nevada 3300 XL extension cable and a 3300 XL Proximitor® Sensor matched to the 1.0-meter probe length.
