Technical Specifications Breakdown
Key parameters for the 330101-00-17-10-02-CN are listed below for quick reference:
| Feature | Specification |
|---|---|
| Product Type | 3300 XL 8 mm Probe, 3/8-24 UNF thread, without armor |
| Unthreaded Length Option | 00=0.0 in |
| Overall Case Length Option | 17=1.7 in |
| Total Length Option | 10=1.0 meter (3.3 feet) |
| Connector and Cable-Type Option | 02=Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector, standard cable |
| Agency Approval Option | CN=Country Specific |
| Probe Tip Material | Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) |
| Probe Case Material | AISI 303 or 304 stainless steel (SST) |
| Linear Range | 2 mm (80 mils). Linear range begins at approximately 0.25 mm (10 mils) from target and is from 0.25 to 2.3 mm (10 to 90 mils) (approximately –1 to –17 Vdc) |
| Recommended Gap Setting for Radial Vibration | -9 Vdc [approximately 1.27 mm (50 mils)] |
| Incremental Scale Factor (ISF) Standard 5 or 1 meter System | 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) ± 5% including interchangeability error when measured in increments of 0.25 mm (10 mils) over the 80 mil linear range from 0°C to +45°C (+32°F to +113°F) |
| Probe Temperature Range (Standard) | -52°C to +177°C (-62°F to +350°F) |
| Probe Case Thread | 3/8-24 |
| Maximum Length of Thread Engagement | 0.563 in |
| Recommended Probe Case Torque (Standard forward mounted probes) | 11.2 N•m (100 in•lbf) |
Industry Applications
The 2 mm linear range and high sensitivity (7.87 V/mm) enable early detection of shaft instability or bearing wear. The robust PPS tip and stainless steel case resist oil, moisture, and physical abuse common in refinery, power generation, and petrochemical environments.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the probe using the 3/8-24 UNF thread into a properly tapped hole. Ensure the thread engagement does not exceed 0.563 in. For standard forward mounted probes, tighten to the recommended torque of 11.2 N•m (100 in•lbf) for the probe case, and 7.5 N•m (66 in•lbf) for the first three threads. Set the initial gap to achieve approximately -9 Vdc output, corresponding to a 1.27 mm (50 mils) gap from the target. Use 3-conductor shielded triad cable for field wiring, with a maximum length of 305 meters (1,000 feet) between the probe and the monitor.
Maintenance & Reliability
The probe is designed for long-term reliability. Inspect the cable and connector periodically for damage. Avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below –34˚C (-30˚F) to prevent premature failure of the pressure seal. The probe withstands up to 93% humidity with less than a 3% change in Average Scale Factor (ASF) over 56 days.
Robust Vibration Monitoring for Critical Machinery
When protecting rotating machinery, the sensor interface must withstand harsh conditions while delivering precise measurements. The Bently Nevada 330101-00-17-10-02-CN 3300 XL 8 mm probe provides a rugged solution for eddy-current vibration and position monitoring. Designed with a 3/8-24 UNF thread and without armor, this probe is engineered for direct installation into bearing housings or machine casings.
Compatibility & Integration
This probe is part of the 3300 XL system and is compatible with Bently Nevada Proximitor sensors and monitors. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector ensures secure, quick connections. For extended temperature applications, use the Extended Temperature Range probe version for tip temperatures up to +218°C.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When selecting a probe, consider the machine’s operating temperature, required cable length, and connector type.
