Industry Applications
The 2 mm linear range and -9 Vdc recommended gap setting provide stable, repeatable measurements for radial vibration analysis.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the probe using the M10 x 1 thread with a maximum thread engagement of 15 mm. Use 3-conductor shielded triad cable with tinned field wiring (0.2 to 1.5 mm² / 16 to 24 AWG). The maximum field wiring length between the proximitor and monitor is 305 meters (1,000 feet). Set the initial gap to approximately -9 Vdc (1.27 mm) for radial vibration applications.
Maintenance & Reliability
The probe tip material (PPS) and stainless steel case offer chemical resistance and durability. Operating temperature range of -52°C to +177°C covers most industrial environments. The probe is designed to seal differential pressure between tip and case using a Viton O-ring. Exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) may cause premature failure of the pressure seal.
Compatibility & Integration
This probe is part of the 3300 XL system and works with compatible Bently Nevada proximitors and monitors. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector ensures secure, quick connections. Agency approvals include Country Specific Approval (CN) and intrinsic safety certifications for hazardous area installations.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When selecting a replacement or new probe, verify the total length, thread size, and connector type match your existing system. The 330103-00-18-10-12-CN is available from AutoDCSTech. Please verify current lifecycle status and availability with AutoDCSTech before ordering.
