Description

The Bently Nevada 330104-00-08-10-02-00 is a high-performance 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe designed for non-contact vibration and position measurement in industrial rotating machinery. As part of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL transducer system, this probe provides accurate, reliable data for monitoring shaft displacement, radial vibration, and axial position in critical assets such as turbines, compressors, and pumps. This specific configuration features an M10 x 1 thread, an 80 mm case length, and a 1.0-meter cable length with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector.

Features

• Advanced 8 mm probe design for superior signal linearity and range.
• ClickLoc connector system for secure, reliable cable connections.
• Rugged construction suitable for harsh industrial environments.
• Compatible with standard Bently Nevada 3300 XL extension cables and proximitors.
• Designed for high-precision gap measurement in rotating machinery.

Applications

• Radial vibration monitoring on centrifugal compressors and turbines.
• Axial position (thrust) measurement for rotating shafts.
• Speed and phase reference (keyphasor) signal acquisition.
• General-purpose proximity sensing in industrial automation and condition monitoring systems.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the probe is mounted in a rigid, vibration-free bracket to prevent false readings.
• Maintain proper gap distance as specified in the system manual to ensure linear operation.
• Use caution when handling the probe tip; avoid physical impact or scratching of the sensing face.
• Route signal cables away from high-voltage power lines and sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Ensure all connections are clean and fully seated; use the ClickLoc mechanism to lock the connector securely.
• Verify system calibration after installation to ensure the transducer system meets accuracy requirements.

FAQ

What is the primary function of the 330104 probe?

This probe is an essential component of the 3300 XL transducer system, used to measure the distance between the probe tip and a conductive target, typically a rotating shaft, to monitor vibration and position.

Is this probe compatible with older 3300 series systems?

The 3300 XL system is designed to be backward compatible with many 3300 series components, but it is recommended to verify the specific proximitor and extension cable compatibility in your system documentation.
