Bently Nevada 330710-000-050-50-02-00 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Probe

Description

Engineered for high-precision displacement and vibration measurements in heavy rotating machinery, the 330710-000-050-50-02-00 non-contacting sensor serves as a key component of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Transducer System. This robust probe provides a wider linear range than standard 8 mm probes, making it highly effective for applications requiring extended measurement ranges or where mounting constraints require a larger sensor-to-target distance.

This specific configuration features a fully unthreaded probe body (0 mm unthreaded length option) with a 50 mm overall case length. The integrated standard cable spans a total length of 5.0 meters (16.4 feet) and terminates in a secure, miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector. Designed to withstand harsh industrial environments, this system ensures reliable mechanical diagnostics and machinery protection telemetry.

Features

• Extended Linear Range: 11 mm probe tip provides reliable measurement across wider gaps compared to standard 8 mm options.
• Secure ClickLoc Connection: Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector prevents accidental disconnection due to industrial vibration.
• Durable Case Design: Threadless, smooth cylinder body configuration with a 50 mm overall case length for specialized mounting brackets.
• Industrial-Grade Cable: 5.0-meter standard coaxial cable designed for signal integrity over long runs to the Proximitor sensor.

Applications

• Steam turbine and gas turbine shaft vibration monitoring
• Hydroelectric generator axial thrust and radial displacement tracking
• Centrifugal compressor shaft position diagnostics
• Heavy industrial pump, blower, and fan monitoring systems

Installation Guidelines

• Gap Calibration: Ensure the probe is gapped correctly within its linear range using a calibrated voltmeter or machinery protection system monitor during commissioning.
• Cable Routing: Avoid running probe cables parallel to high-voltage AC power lines to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Connector Protection: Use connector protectors or terminal boots to safeguard the ClickLoc connection from moisture, oil, and conductive particulates.
• Mounting Integrity: Ensure the threadless body is firmly secured in its mounting clamp or bushing to prevent vibration-induced movement of the probe body itself.
