330104-00-08-10-01-05 Bently Nevada 8mm Probe

Product Overview

The 330104-00-08-10-01-05 is a premium 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe engineered for high-accuracy vibration monitoring and machinery protection. This non-contact eddy current sensor captures critical shaft position data for high-speed rotating equipment. Designed for durability, it features an IP67-rated stainless steel casing and a specialized ClickLoc™ connector, ensuring reliable performance in extreme industrial environments characterized by high EMI/RFI interference.

Technical Configuration

The model number 330104-00-08-10-01-05 defines the following physical and electrical attributes:

• Unthreaded Length (00): 0 mm; provides a fully threaded barrel for versatile mounting.
• Overall Case Length (08): 80 mm; ideal for standard industrial machine housing penetrations.
• Total Length (10): 1.0 meter (3.3 feet) integrated cable.
• Connector Option (01): Miniature coaxial ClickLoc™ connector.
• Agency Approval (05): Multiple approvals (CSA, ATEX, IECEx) for hazardous area compliance.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

To maintain signal integrity, ensure the probe tip is installed perpendicular to the target shaft. Use a torque wrench during installation to prevent thread damage and maintain the 15N pull-out resistance of the connector.

Gap Calibration

Measure the DC output voltage from the Proximitor® Sensor during setup. For standard vibration monitoring, adjust the probe until the voltage reaches approximately -10.00 VDC. This ensures the sensor is positioned at the midpoint of its linear range.

Engineering Advantages

This probe utilizes the ClickLoc™ connector system, which prevents unintended disconnection caused by machine vibration. Its stainless steel housing provides robust EMI/RFI shielding, making it ideal for use near high-power electrical equipment. The 3300 XL series is fully interchangeable with older 8 mm hardware, allowing for cost-effective system upgrades.

Technical FAQs

Q1: How do I confirm the 15N pull-out resistance is maintained?
A1: Ensure the ClickLoc™ connector is fully seated until you feel or hear the tactile "click." This lock ensures a low-impedance connection that resists mechanical stress.

Q2: Is this probe suitable for underwater applications?
A2: With its IP67 rating, the probe handles temporary immersion and heavy splashing, though it is not intended for continuous deep-sea submersion without additional protective conduit.

Q3: Does this model support ATEX hazardous area requirements?
A3: Yes, the "05" approval option includes CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications, making it safe for use in explosive atmospheres when used with an appropriate Proximitor® barrier.
