Bently Nevada 330102-00-80-10-11-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Product Overview

Unplanned machinery downtime often stems from undetected shaft vibration. The Bently Nevada 330102-00-80-10-11-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe provides precise, non-contact displacement measurements to catch issues early. This probe features a 1.0 meter (3.3 feet) total length, a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with connector protector, and FluidLoc cable for secure installation in harsh environments.

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 330102-00-80-10-11-00 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications

Its 2 mm linear range and recommended -9 Vdc gap setting enable accurate radial vibration and shaft position measurement. The PPS tip and stainless steel case withstand harsh conditions, reducing false alarms and maintenance costs.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Ensure the probe is installed with the 3/8-24 thread engaging no more than 0.563 inches. Use 3-conductor shielded triad cable (16 to 24 AWG) for field wiring, with maximum length of 305 meters (1,000 feet) between the Proximitor Sensor and monitor. Verify the probe resistance (RPROBE) is 7.59 ± 0.50 Ω for a 1.0 m probe. For radial vibration, set the initial gap to -9 Vdc (approximately 1.27 mm or 50 mils) from the target.

Maintenance & Reliability

Inspect probe cables and connectors periodically for wear or damage. The probe is designed to seal differential pressure between tip and case using a Viton O-ring; avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) to prevent premature pressure seal failure. Relative humidity below 93% ensures less than 3% change in Average Scale Factor (ASF).

Compatibility & Integration

This probe is compatible with the 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor system. For hazardous locations, it can be installed with intrinsically safe zener barriers per drawing 141092 or galvanic isolators for Class I, Zone 0 environments. For non-incendive circuits, follow drawing 140979 for Class I, Zone 2 applications.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

Choose the 330102-00-80-10-11-00 for applications requiring a 1.0 m probe with a ClickLoc connector and FluidLoc cable. Verify lifecycle status with AutoDCSTech before ordering to ensure availability.

Troubleshooting & Common Issues

If readings drift, check the probe gap and ensure it remains within the linear range (0.25 to 2.3 mm from target). Verify field wiring continuity and resistance. For signal rolloff at high frequencies, review frequency response graphs (Figures 10 and 12) when using longer cable runs.
