Bently Nevada 330101-00-20-20-02-CN 3300 XL 8 mm Probe, 3/8-24 UNF Thread

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 330101-00-20-20-02-CN are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications for the 3300 XL Probe

Its 2 mm linear range and high sensitivity (7.87 V/mm) allow precise detection of shaft displacement, helping operators avoid catastrophic failures. The robust PPS tip and stainless steel case withstand harsh conditions, making it suitable for oil and gas, power generation, and petrochemical facilities.

Installation & Setup Guidance

When installing the 330101-00-20-20-02-CN, ensure the probe tip is properly positioned within the linear range. The recommended gap setting for radial vibration is -9 Vdc, approximately 1.27 mm (50 mils). Use the provided thread engagement limits (maximum 0.563 in) and apply the recommended torque: 11.2 N•m (100 in•lbf) for standard forward mounted probes. For the first three threads, use 7.5 N•m (66 in•lbf). Field wiring should use 0.2 to 1.5 mm² (16 to 24 AWG) three-conductor shielded triad cable, with a maximum length of 305 meters (1,000 feet) between the Proximitor Sensor and the monitor.

Maintenance & Reliability

Regularly inspect the probe cable and connector for signs of wear or damage. The patented CableLoc design provides 330 N (75 lbf) pull strength, but avoid excessive bending or pulling. The probe is designed to seal differential pressure using a Viton® O ring; avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) to prevent premature pressure seal failure. For extended temperature range applications, the probe tip can operate up to +218°C (+425°F).

Robust Vibration Monitoring with the Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm Probe

In rotating machinery, accurate vibration measurement is critical for predictive maintenance and avoiding unplanned downtime. The Bently Nevada 330101-00-20-20-02-CN is a 3300 XL 8 mm Probe designed for reliable, high-precision displacement sensing in demanding industrial environments. This probe features a 3/8-24 UNF thread, a 2.0-meter total length, and a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with standard cable. Manufactured in the USA, it offers the ruggedness and performance expected from Bently Nevada.

Compatibility & Integration

This probe is part of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL system and is compatible with 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors and extension cables. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector ensures a secure, quick connection. For systems requiring longer cable runs, the 9-meter system offers an Incremental Scale Factor of 7.87 V/mm ± 6.5%.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

When selecting the 330101-00-20-20-02-CN, verify your thread type (3/8-24 UNF) and cable length requirements. This model is without armor, suitable for standard environments. For applications with oil leakage concerns, consider the optional FluidLoc cable. Contact AutoDCSTech for availability, lifecycle status, and competitive pricing on Bently Nevada components.
