Bently Nevada 330101-23-34-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Probe, 3/8-24 UNF Thread

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 330101-23-34-10-02-05 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications and Operational ROI

The 2 mm linear range (80 mils) provides ample measurement span for most machinery protection applications. With a recommended gap setting of -9 Vdc (approximately 1.27 mm or 50 mils), the system delivers consistent data for predictive maintenance programs. The robust PPS probe tip and stainless steel case minimize wear and environmental degradation, reducing total cost of ownership.

Installation and Setup Guidance

Mount the probe using the 3/8-24 UNF thread with a recommended torque of 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). Ensure thread engagement does not exceed 0.563 inches. 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 monitor. Verify the probe tip material (PPS) is compatible with the target environment.

Maintenance and Reliability

Inspect the probe and cable periodically for physical damage, especially near the tip and connector. The patented TipLoc and CableLoc designs provide 330 N (75 lbf) pull strength for secure attachment. The Viton O-ring seals differential pressure between the tip and case. Avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) to prevent premature pressure seal failure. The probe is designed for less than 3% change in Average Scale Factor when tested in 93% humidity per IEC standard 68 2 3 for up to 56 days.

Robust Vibration Monitoring for Critical Machinery

Industrial rotating machinery demands precise, reliable vibration monitoring to prevent unplanned downtime and catastrophic failures. The Bently Nevada 330101-23-34-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm probe offers proven performance for eddy-current displacement measurement in harsh environments. This probe is designed for permanent installation on compressors, turbines, pumps, and other rotating equipment where accurate shaft relative vibration and position data is essential.

Compatibility and Integration

The 330101-23-34-10-02-05 is part of the 3300 XL system, compatible with 3300 XL Proximitor sensors and extension cables. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector simplifies field installation. The system delivers a standard incremental scale factor of 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) with interchangeability error of ±5% for 1.0 meter systems over the 80 mil linear range from 0°C to +45°C (+32°F to +113°F).

Selection Guide and Purchasing Advice

When selecting a replacement or new probe, verify the total length (1.0 meter), thread type (3/8-24 UNF), and agency approval requirements (CSA, ATEX, IECEx). The 330101-23-34-10-02-05 is a non-armored version suitable for standard industrial environments. Contact AutoDCSTech for availability and lifecycle status before ordering.
