Product Overview
The Bently Nevada 330103-00-04-05-02-00 is a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe designed for precise vibration and position measurement in rotating machinery. This metric probe features an M10 x 1 thread and is built without armor, making it suitable for standard industrial environments. Its polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) tip and AISI 303/304 stainless steel case ensure durability in harsh conditions.

Industry Applications
Its 2 mm linear range and -9 Vdc recommended gap setting enable accurate radial vibration measurement. The wide temperature range (-52°C to +177°C) supports use in extreme environments like gas turbines or refrigeration systems. When evaluating this probe against alternatives, its PPS tip offers superior chemical resistance, reducing failure risk in wet or corrosive conditions.

Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the probe with M10 x 1 threads, ensuring thread engagement does not exceed 15 mm. Use 3-conductor shielded triad cable with tinned field wiring (0.2 to 1.5 mm² or 16 to 24 AWG). Maximum field wiring length between the 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor and the monitor is 305 meters (1,000 feet). Set the gap to approximately -9 Vdc (1.27 mm) for radial vibration applications. The linear range starts at 0.25 mm from the target.
Maintenance & Reliability
Inspect the probe periodically for physical damage or contamination on the tip. The probe is designed to seal differential pressure via a Viton O-ring, but it is not pressure tested before shipment. Avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) to prevent premature pressure seal failure. The probe maintains less than 3% change in Average Scale Factor (ASF) after 56 days at 93% humidity per IEC 68-2-3.
Compatibility & Integration
This probe is compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors and monitoring systems. For intrinsically safe installations, use zener barriers per drawing 141092 or galvanic isolators. For non-incendive circuits, connect per drawing 140979. Hazardous area approvals include Class I, Zone 0 and Zone 2, as well as Class I, Division 1 and 2 for various gas groups.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When selecting the 330103-00-04-05-02-00, verify your required cable length and connector type. This variant includes a 0.5 meter cable with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector. For custom pressure seal testing, contact the design department. Order from AutoDCSTech for genuine Bently Nevada parts and expert support.
