Description

The Bently Nevada 330709-000-040-50-02-00 is a high-performance 3300 XL 11 mm proximity probe designed for critical machinery protection and condition monitoring applications. This probe is engineered to provide precise, non-contact measurements of shaft displacement, vibration, and position in industrial rotating equipment. The 11 mm probe tip offers an extended linear range compared to standard 8 mm probes, making it suitable for applications requiring higher measurement sensitivity and range.

Features

• Advanced 3300 XL series design for superior reliability and signal integrity.
• 11 mm probe tip diameter for enhanced measurement range.
• M16 x 1.5 threading for secure mounting in probe housings.
• Equipped with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector for reliable signal transmission.
• Standard cable configuration for robust performance in industrial environments.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the probe is installed in a rigid, vibration-free housing to maintain measurement accuracy.
• Handle the probe tip with care; avoid physical impact or scratching of the sensing face.
• Route the coaxial cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) to prevent signal noise.
• Ensure all connections are clean and properly seated; use the ClickLoc connector mechanism to ensure a secure, vibration-resistant fit.
• Verify that the probe gap is set according to the specific machinery monitoring requirements and the 3300 XL system calibration curve.
• Always power down the monitoring system before disconnecting or replacing the probe to prevent electrical damage.

FAQ
