The Bently Nevada 330104-02-24-10-01-00 is a high-performance 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe designed for the 3300 XL Proximity Transducer System. This probe provides precise measurement of absolute vibration and shaft position by generating an output voltage proportional to the distance between the probe tip and a conductive target surface. Engineered for reliability, this model features an M10 x 1 metric thread and includes an armored cable for enhanced physical protection in industrial environments.

Features

• M10 x 1 metric thread configuration.
• Includes armored cable for increased durability.
• Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with integrated connector protector.
• Fully interchangeable with all 3300 XL 8 mm system components, eliminating the need for individual bench calibration.
• Complies with API 670 standards for linear range, accuracy, and temperature stability.

Applications

• Radial vibration and axial thrust monitoring for steam and gas turbines.
• Generator bearing monitoring for fluid-film journal bearings.
• Safeguarding high-capacity auxiliary equipment such as cooling water pumps and forced draft fans.
• Shaft stability monitoring for centrifugal compressors and turbo-expanders.
• Keyphasor reference and rotational speed measurements.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the system loop is complete by connecting the probe to the designated 3300 XL extension cable and Proximitor sensor.
• Apply a standard -24 Vdc power source to the Proximitor sensor.
• Use a digital multimeter across the OUT and COM terminals of the Proximitor to monitor voltage.
• Thread the probe carefully through the housing until the tip gently touches the shaft surface.
• Back the probe away from the target while monitoring the voltmeter; the optimal gap setting is reached at -9.0 Vdc, corresponding to a 1.27 mm (50 mil) gap.
• ClickLoc connectors require only finger-tight torque; the locking mechanism provides a tactile click when properly seated.

FAQ

What is the 330104-02-24-10-01-00?

The Bently Nevada 330104-02-24-10-01-00 is a specific probe configuration within the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System, featuring an M10 x 1 thread and armored cabling.

Can I mix XL and non-XL 3300-series components?

While technically possible, system performance will be limited to the specifications of the older, non-XL components. For optimal accuracy and compliance, using the complete 3300 XL system (probe, cable, and Proximitor) is recommended.

Does this model include fluid sealing features?

This unit includes a fluorocarbon (Viton) O-ring for sealing. Please verify specific cable options if your application requires additional FluidLoc features to prevent fluid migration through the cable.
