Description

The Bently Nevada 330103-08-15-10-02-00 is a high-performance 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe designed for precise vibration and position monitoring in industrial rotating machinery. This probe is engineered to provide accurate gap measurements between the probe tip and the observed target, essential for monitoring radial vibration, axial position, and speed in critical assets.

Features

• Standard 8 mm probe tip diameter for broad compatibility with 3300 XL monitoring systems.
• M10 x 1 thread configuration for secure mounting in standard probe holders.
• Equipped with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector for reliable signal transmission.
• Standard cable construction designed for durability in industrial environments.
• Non-armored configuration for applications where external cable protection is managed via conduit or routing.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the probe is installed in a rigid, vibration-free holder to prevent false readings.
• Handle the probe tip with care; avoid physical contact or damage to the plastic tip, as this can affect calibration and accuracy.
• When routing the coaxial cable, maintain a minimum bend radius to avoid damaging the internal conductor or shielding.
• Ensure the ClickLoc connector is fully seated and locked to prevent intermittent signal loss due to vibration.
• Verify that the probe is properly gapped according to the specific machinery monitoring requirements before finalizing the installation.
• Keep signal cables separated from high-voltage power lines to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).

FAQ

What is the primary function of the 3300 XL 8 mm probe?

This probe is used to measure the distance (gap) between the probe tip and a metallic target, allowing the Bently Nevada monitoring system to calculate vibration amplitude and position data for rotating shafts.

Is this probe compatible with older 3300 series systems?

The 3300 XL probes are designed to be fully compatible with 3300 XL Proximitor sensors. Please consult your system documentation to ensure compatibility with your specific Proximitor model.
