Bently Nevada 330104-00-08-05-02-00 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe

Product Overview

The 330104-00-08-05-02-00 is a compact 8mm proximity probe from Bently Nevada’s premier 3300 XL series, engineered for high-precision vibration and position monitoring in restricted spaces. This "Made in the U.S.A." sensor features a compact 80mm overall case length and a 0.5-meter (1.6ft) total length, making it an ideal choice for short-range monitoring in small pumps, motors, and auxiliary machinery. Built with a rugged M10 x 1 threaded stainless steel housing and protective armor, it ensures superior mechanical durability and signal stability in demanding industrial environments.

Core Technical Advantages

Designed for extreme reliability, this probe utilizes a high-performance Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) tip and an AISI 303/304 stainless steel case, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 232°C. The internal Viton® O-ring provides a robust seal against differential pressure, even at altitudes up to 2000 meters. Electrically, it maintains a stable 50 Ω output resistance and excellent supply sensitivity (±2mV/V). The miniature coaxial ClickLoc™ connector ensures a secure, vibration-resistant electrical connection, providing deterministic data acquisition for critical machinery safety systems.

Technical Specifications

Installation & Engineering Guide

To maintain peak accuracy, the probe should be gapped at 1.27 mm (50 mils) against an AISI 4140 steel target. The compact 80mm case is ideal for shallow mounting holes, but ensure the M10 threads are properly torqued to maintain the pressure seal. Installation should comply with Bently Nevada drawing 140979 for proper grounding and shielding. Ensure the power supply remains between -23.5 Vdc and -26 Vdc to prevent linearity errors. The ClickLoc™ connector should be clicked into place firmly to ensure a moisture-proof and vibration-resistant connection.

Engineering Advantages

Bently Nevada’s 3300 XL transducers are globally recognized for their interchangeability and deterministic response. The combination of corrosion-resistant AISI 303/304 SST and a high-temperature PPS tip makes this probe suitable for the most aggressive industrial environments. Its 0.5-meter short-cable configuration reduces electrical noise in compact cabinets and is specifically optimized for high-density I/O monitoring. Choice of the 3300 XL system guarantees a standardized solution with high thermal stability and a 12-month full coverage warranty.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What is the primary benefit of the 80mm case length?
A1: The 80mm (Option 08) case is a compact length designed for machinery with thin outer shells or limited clearance, allowing the probe to be installed in spaces where standard 100mm+ cases would not fit.

Q2: Is this probe compatible with standard 3300 XL extension cables?
A2: Yes. Although the probe itself is 0.5m, it is designed to work seamlessly with Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8mm extension cables and Proximitor® sensors.

Q3: Can I get a Certificate of Origin (COO) for this product?
A3: Absolutely. As this product is manufactured in the USA, a formal Certificate of Origin (COO) can be provided upon request to facilitate your international shipping and compliance needs.
