The Bently Nevada 330709-000-060-10-02-00 is a high-performance 3300 XL 11 mm proximity probe designed for precise vibration and position monitoring in industrial rotating machinery. This transducer system utilizes eddy current technology to provide accurate, non-contact measurements of shaft displacement, radial vibration, and axial position.
Features
- Output sensitivity of 3.94 V/mm (100 mV/mil).
- Extended linear range for demanding monitoring applications.
- M16 x 1.5 metric thread for secure mounting.
- Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector for reliable signal transmission.
- Designed for compatibility with the 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor system.
Applications
- Monitoring large steam turbine generators, gas turbines, and hydro turbines in power generation facilities.
- Vibration and displacement monitoring for centrifugal compressors, reciprocating compressors, and industrial oil pumps.
- Mechanical health status tracking for critical process units in petrochemical and chemical plants.
- Precise position monitoring for blast furnace fans, large motors, and machine tool spindles.

Installation Guidelines
- Ensure the probe is mounted using the provided locknut to secure the gap setting; the locknut includes pre-drilled holes for safety wire to prevent loosening due to machinery vibration.
- When upgrading from 7200-series systems, ensure all components are replaced with 3300 XL 11 mm compatible parts and the monitoring system software is updated.
- Maintain proper clearance and avoid high-EMI sources to ensure signal integrity.
- Always power down the monitoring system before installing or removing transducer components to prevent electrical damage.
- Handle the probe tip with care to avoid mechanical damage or calibration shifts.
FAQs
What is the primary function of this probe?
The 330709-000-060-10-02-00 is a proximity probe used to measure shaft vibration and position in rotating machinery by detecting changes in the eddy current field.
Is this probe compatible with older 7200-series systems?
No, the 3300 XL 11 mm system is not directly compatible with 7200-series components. A full system upgrade, including the Proximitor sensor and monitoring system configuration, is required.
What is the typical gap voltage for this probe?
The gap voltage is typically adjusted to -10V DC during installation to ensure the probe operates within its linear range.
