Industry Applications
The 8 mm diameter provides enhanced ruggedness compared to smaller probes, reducing the risk of damage during installation or operation. The FluidLoc cable option prevents oil leakage through the cable interior, making it suitable for applications where oil mist or liquid ingress is a concern.
Installation & Setup Guidance
When installing the 330101-30-49-10-12-05, ensure the probe is properly aligned with the target surface. Use the recommended gap setting of -9 Vdc (approximately 1.27 mm or 50 mils) for radial vibration measurements. The probe case thread engagement should not exceed 0.563 inches. Apply the 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). Field wiring should use 3-conductor shielded triad cable with tinned conductors, 16 to 24 AWG, and a maximum length of 305 meters (1,000 feet) between the Proximitor Sensor and the monitor.
Maintenance & Reliability
The 3300 XL probe is designed for long-term reliability in harsh environments. The PPS tip and stainless steel case resist corrosion and mechanical wear. The patented TipLoc and CableLoc designs provide a robust bond and high pull strength (330 N or 75 lbf). Inspect the probe and cable periodically for signs of physical damage or fluid ingress. The probe can operate in temperatures from -52°C to +177°C (standard) and in humidity up to 93% with minimal scale factor change.
Compatibility & Integration
This probe is part of the 3300 XL system and is compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors and extension cables. The ClickLoc connector ensures a secure, quick connection. The system provides a standard incremental scale factor of 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) with interchangeability error of ±5% for 1 meter systems. The linear range of 2 mm (80 mils) covers typical vibration amplitudes in industrial machinery.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When selecting a probe, consider the thread size, cable length, and environmental approvals. The 330101-30-49-10-12-05 offers CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals, making it suitable for hazardous area installations.
