330174-00-06-10-02-CN Bently Nevada 3300 5mm Probe M8

Product Overview of the 330174-00-06-10-02-CN

The Bently Nevada 330174-00-06-10-02-CN is a 3300 series 5mm proximity probe engineered for precise displacement and vibration measurement in rotating machinery. As a result, it delivers engineering-grade precision in every part. This probe features an M8 x 1 thread, a 60 mm overall case length, and a 1.0 metre total length with armor. Furthermore, its polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) tip and AISI 304 stainless steel case ensure durability in demanding industrial environments.

Technical Specifications and Performance

When integrated into a proximity transducer system, the 330174-00-06-10-02-CN operates with a -24 Vdc power supply, a 10 kW load, and an AISI 4140 steel target gapped at 1.27 mm. The probe requires -17.5 Vdc to -26 Vdc at 12 mA maximum consumption. Additionally, output resistance is 50 W, and sensitivity is less than 2 mV change per volt change in input voltage. The probe DC resistance from center conductor to outer conductor is 7.59 ± 0.50 Ω at 1.0 metre. The cable is 75 Ω triaxial, FEP insulated. The probe temperature range is -35°C to +177°C. Tensile strength is 222 N (50 lbf) for both probe case to lead and lead to extension cable connectors. The recommended probe case torque is 5.1 N·m (45 in·lb), with a maximum of 7.3 N·m (65 in·lb). Minimum cable bend radius is 25.4 mm (1.0 in).

Comparison with Similar Product Categories

• 330174-00-06-10-02-CN (this model): 5mm probe, M8 x 1 thread, 1.0 m total length, armor, Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector.
• Standard 3300 5mm probe without armor: Lacks the protective armor, reducing mechanical protection in harsh environments.
• 3300 8mm probe: Larger tip diameter, typically used for larger shaft diameters; not interchangeable with 5mm systems.
• 3300 XL series: Offers extended linear range but different connector and cable options.

Installation and Integration Notes

Proper installation of the 330174-00-06-10-02-CN requires attention to thread engagement limits. The M8 x 1 thread allows a maximum thread engagement of 12 mm. Therefore, ensure the probe is mounted securely without exceeding this limit. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector provides a reliable interface with standard extension cables. However, when integrating into fieldbus networks, wiring may require an external gateway or connection module. Confirm cables and gateways with the supplier to ensure compatibility.

Maintenance and Reliability

To maintain engineering-grade precision, inspect the probe periodically for signs of wear or damage. The PPS tip and stainless steel case resist many industrial chemicals, but exposure to temperatures below -34°C may cause premature failure of the pressure seal. Additionally, avoid exceeding the maximum torque during installation. Regular checks of cable bend radius and connector integrity help prevent signal degradation. For specific maintenance procedures, refer to official Bently Nevada documentation.
