Bently Nevada 330101-43-57-05-02-00 3300 XL 8 mm Probe, 3/8-24 UNF Thread, Without Armor

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330101-43-57-05-02-00 is a 3300 XL 8 mm Probe with a 3/8-24 UNF thread, designed without armor. This probe is engineered for precise vibration monitoring in rotating machinery, offering enhanced durability and reliability. Manufactured in the U.S.A., it incorporates patented TipLoc and CableLoc technologies for robust tip-to-body bonding and high pull strength (330 N / 75 lbf).

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 330101-43-57-05-02-00 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications

This probe is commonly used for radial vibration and position monitoring in turbines, compressors, pumps, and other rotating equipment. The 8 mm design offers superior resistance to physical abuse, reducing downtime in harsh environments. By providing accurate vibration data, it helps prevent catastrophic failures and extends machinery life, delivering strong operational ROI.

Installation & Setup Guidance

When installing the 330101-43-57-05-02-00, ensure the mounting surface is clean and the probe is properly aligned with the target. The recommended gap setting for radial vibration is -9 Vdc (approximately 1.27 mm or 50 mils). Use field wiring of 0.2 to 1.5 mm² (16 to 24 AWG) with a 3-conductor shielded triad cable. Maximum field wiring length between the Proximitor Sensor and monitor is 305 meters (1,000 feet). Avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) to prevent premature pressure seal failure.

Maintenance & Reliability

Inspect the probe and cable periodically for physical damage or wear. The probe is designed to seal differential pressure between tip and case using a Viton O-ring, but it is not pressure tested before shipment. For applications requiring pressure seal verification, contact the custom design department. The probe exhibits less than a 3% change in Average Scale Factor when tested in 93% humidity per IEC 68 2 3 for up to 56 days.

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 and quick installation. The standard cable length of 0.5 meters (1.6 feet) allows for flexible integration into existing monitoring setups.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

When selecting the 330101-43-57-05-02-00, consider the required unthreaded length, overall case length, and total length options. This model is suitable for applications where armor is not needed.
