Bently Nevada 330101-00-43-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Probe, 3/8-24 UNF Thread

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 330101-00-43-10-02-05 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications

The 8 mm probe design provides improved robustness in high-vibration environments, reducing the risk of sensor damage and false readings. The optional FluidLoc cable option prevents oil leaks through the cable interior, making it suitable for applications with lubricated bearings.

Installation and Setup Guidance

When installing the 330101-00-43-10-02-05, ensure the target surface is clean and free of debris. The recommended gap setting for radial vibration is -9 Vdc, approximately 1.27 mm (50 mils). Use the specified field wiring: 0.2 to 1.5 mm² (16 to 24 AWG) three-conductor shielded triad cable. Maximum field wiring length between the Proximitor Sensor and monitor is 305 meters (1,000 feet). Secure the probe with the 3/8-24 UNF thread, applying appropriate torque per manufacturer guidelines.

Maintenance and Reliability

Inspect the probe and cable periodically for signs of wear or damage. The probe tip is made of PPS, which resists many chemicals. Avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) to prevent premature failure of the pressure seal. The probe is designed to seal differential pressure using a Viton O-ring; if pressure testing is required, contact the custom design department.

Precision Vibration Monitoring with the Bently Nevada 3300 XL Probe

For maintenance engineers, reliable vibration data is critical to preventing unplanned downtime. The Bently Nevada 330101-00-43-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm probe delivers the ruggedness and accuracy needed for demanding rotating machinery applications. This probe is designed with a patented TipLoc molding method for a robust bond between the probe tip and body, and a CableLoc design providing 330 N (75 lbf) pull strength. The 8 mm diameter probe body offers a thicker encapsulation of the probe coil in molded PPS plastic, resulting in a more durable sensor that withstands physical abuse.

Compatibility and Integration

The 3300 XL probe works with Bently Nevada 3300 XL extension cables and Proximitor sensors. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector ensures a secure, reliable connection. The system provides a standard incremental scale factor of 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) for 1-meter systems, enabling direct integration with compatible monitors.

Selection Guide and Purchasing Advice

When selecting a replacement probe, verify the thread size (3/8-24 UNF), overall case length (4.3 in), and total length (1.0 m). The 330101-00-43-10-02-05 includes CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals for hazardous area use. Contact AutoDCSTech for current pricing and availability.
