3300 XL 8mm Probe 330103-01-07-05-02-00 Bently Nevada

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330103-01-07-05-02-00 is an integral part of the 3300 XL 8mm Transducer System, the industry standard for machinery protection and condition monitoring. This model is configured with a 70mm case and a 10mm unthreaded section, allowing for specialized mounting depth requirements. Uniquely, this version features a 5.0-meter integral cable, eliminating the need for an intermediate extension cable in many standard 5m system installations. Terminated with a ClickLoc miniature coaxial connector, it ensures a moisture-resistant and vibration-proof signal path. This probe is ideal for monitoring radial vibration, axial position, and eccentricity in turbines, compressors, and other critical rotating equipment.

Core Technical Advantages

Extended Cable Reach

Unlike standard short-cable probes, the 5.0-meter total length of the 330103-01-07-05-02-00 provides significant installation flexibility. This long reach is particularly beneficial in large machinery setups where the Proximitor sensor must be located at a distance from the probe mounting point, reducing the number of connection points and potential failure sites in the sensor string.

High-Precision Measurement

Optimized for a 2.0 mm (80 mils) linear range, this probe delivers accurate data across a wide frequency spectrum. Whether capturing slow-speed eccentricity or high-frequency vibration harmonics, the 330103 series maintains exceptional sensitivity and linear accuracy. The design is further enhanced with temperature resiliency, performing reliably in environments from -40 to +125 Degrees Celsius.

Robust Construction for Industrial Use

The probe features a durable tip and a high-grade stainless steel case designed to endure the harsh conditions of industrial plant floors. The ClickLoc connector provides a secure, audible snap-on connection that resists loosening under extreme vibration, ensuring your machinery monitoring system remains online and operational without signal interruptions.

Technical Specifications

Installation and Setup

• Gap Calibration: For optimal vibration sensing, the probe gap should be set to -9 Vdc against an AISI 4140 steel target surface.
• Mounting Precision: The 10mm unthreaded length allows for specific bracket clearance; ensure the M10x1 threads are properly engaged for a rigid installation.
• System Length Matching: This 5.0m probe is designed to connect directly to a 5-meter Proximitor sensor without an extension cable, or to a 9-meter Proximitor when used with a 4-meter extension cable. Always verify total system electrical length.

Technical FAQs

Q1: Can this probe be used in applications requiring agency approvals?

A1: The 00 suffix in the agency approval field indicates "No Approvals Required." This model is best suited for general industrial environments that do not require specialized hazardous area certifications like ATEX or CSA.

Q2: What is the recommended shipping weight for international logistics?

A2: Due to the extended 5.0-meter cable, the net weight is 0.323 kg. We recommend calculating shipping based on 0.65 kg to include the necessary protective anti-static spooling and industrial-grade shipping carton.

Q3: Does the extended cable length affect signal accuracy?

A3: No. The system is designed and calibrated for specific total lengths (5m or 9m). As long as the total length matches your Proximitor sensor's calibration, the 5.0m probe provides the same high-fidelity measurement as short-cable variants.
