330104-01-05-50-01-00 Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm Probe

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330104-01-05-50-01-00 is a metric 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe designed for high-precision vibration and displacement monitoring. Featuring an M10 x 1 thread and integrated stainless steel armor, this probe provides exceptional mechanical protection and signal stability for critical rotating machinery.

This 5.0-meter configuration is engineered specifically for use with matching 5m Proximitor sensors. With a weight of 323 g/m, the probe utilizes a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) tip and a Viton® O-ring seal to maintain performance and pressure integrity in demanding industrial environments.

Technical Specifications

Key Performance Features

• Linear Range: Reliable 2 mm (80 mils) linear range, starting at 0.25 mm from the target for precise gap monitoring.
• ClickLoc™ Connectivity: Features a miniature coaxial ClickLoc™ connector with a built-in protector for secure, vibration-resistant links.
• Hazardous Area Certified: Rated for intrinsically safe (ia) and non-incendive (nA/ec) applications, including Class I Zone 0 and Zone 2 environments.
• Extreme Temperature Rating: Capable of operating in temperatures ranging from -52°C to +177°C, suitable for high-heat industrial zones.

Installation & Application

The 330104-01-05-50-01-00 is ideal for radial vibration and axial position measurements on fluid-film bearing machines. For optimal signal integrity, it is recommended to set a nominal gap of -9 Vdc (approx. 1.27 mm). The armored cable provides superior protection against physical damage and EMI in busy industrial settings.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What proximitor sensor is required for this probe?

A1: This 5.0-meter probe must be used exclusively with a matching 5-meter 3300 XL Proximitor sensor to maintain calibration and accuracy.

Q2: Is the probe pressure-tight?

A2: Yes, the Viton® O-ring and PPS tip are designed to seal differential pressure between the tip and the case, though they are not pre-tested for pressure unless specifically requested.

Q3: What is the recommended field wiring?

A3: We recommend using 3-conductor shielded triad cable (16 to 24 AWG) with a maximum length of 305 meters between the Proximitor and the monitor.

Warranty: This product includes a 12-month standard industrial warranty.
