The Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-10-02-00 is a precision 8 mm proximity probe designed for the 3300 XL Proximity Transducer System. This non-contacting eddy current sensor detects the distance between the probe tip and a conductive target surface, converting mechanical gaps into electrical voltage signals for critical machinery condition monitoring.

Features

• M10 x 1 metric thread configuration with 8 mm probe tip diameter.
• Patented TipLoc molding for a robust bond between the probe tip and body.
• Patented CableLoc design providing 330 N (75 lbf) pull strength.
• 2.0 mm (80 mil) linear measuring range.
• Wide operating temperature range from -51 degC to +177 degC.
• Complete system interchangeability with 3300 XL components.

Applications

• Oil, Gas, and Petrochemical: Monitoring critical machinery in hazardous zones.
• Power Generation: Tracking turbine and generator shaft displacement.
• Chemical Processing: PPS thermoplastic housing provides resistance to corrosive vapors.
• Mining and Heavy Industry: Designed to withstand high vibration and abrasive environments.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the coaxial connectors are clean and free of debris before mating.
• Finger-tighten connectors until snug; do not use pliers or wrenches to avoid over-tightening.
• Ensure the probe is mounted securely to the machine housing using the provided M10 x 1 threads.
• The probe is designed to seal differential pressure via a Viton O-ring; verify installation integrity for high-pressure applications.
• Maintain proper cable routing to avoid high-EMI sources and excessive mechanical stress.

FAQ

What is the 330103-00-05-10-02-00?

It is a standard 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe used to measure radial vibration and axial position in industrial rotating machinery.

Does this probe require bench calibration?

No. The 3300 XL system components are designed for complete interchangeability, allowing you to swap probes, extension cables, or Proximitor sensors without requiring individual component matching or recalibration.

Is this probe pressure-sealed?

The probe utilizes a Viton O-ring to seal the probe tip to the case. Note that these units are not pressure-tested at the factory prior to shipment.
