330104-01-08-50-01-00 Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm Probe

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330104-01-08-50-01-00 is a metric 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe designed for precision vibration and position monitoring. Equipped with an M10 x 1 thread and stainless steel armor, this probe offers superior mechanical protection and long-term signal stability for rotating machinery protection systems.

This 5.0-meter probe is engineered for use with matching 5m Proximitor sensors. With a weight of 323 g/m, the unit features a high-performance polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) tip and an AISI 303/304 stainless steel case, ensuring reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.

Technical Specifications

Key Performance Features

• Linear Range: Provides a 2 mm (80 mils) linear range, typically ranging from -1 to -17 Vdc for high-fidelity displacement data.
• ClickLoc™ Connectivity: Utilizes a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with a built-in protector to prevent accidental disconnection.
• Hazardous Area Ready: Fully compliant with intrinsically safe (ia) and non-incendive (nA/ec) standards for Class I Zone 0 and Zone 2 applications.
• Extreme Temperature Tolerance: Operates efficiently in standard ranges from -52°C to +177°C, making it suitable for steam turbines and high-heat zones.

Installation & Application

The 330104-01-08-50-01-00 is ideal for measuring radial vibration and axial position on fluid-film bearing machines. For optimal performance, the recommended gap setting is -9 Vdc (approx. 1.27 mm). The integral armor provides an essential barrier against physical abrasion and electrical noise in busy industrial power plants.

Technical FAQs

Q1: Can I use this probe with a 9-meter Proximitor?

A1: No, 5-meter probes are designed and calibrated for use exclusively with 5-meter Proximitor sensors to ensure accurate signal output.

Q2: What is the pressure rating for the probe tip?

A2: These probes use Viton® O-rings to seal differential pressure. While not pre-tested for specific pressure values at the factory, they are designed to maintain an airtight seal in standard machinery casings.

Q3: Is the unthreaded length adjustable?

A3: The unthreaded length is fixed at 10 mm per the "01" suffix code. Ensure your mounting bracket or machine case allows for this specific geometry.

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