Bently Nevada 330101-00-12-10-01-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Product Overview

The 330101-00-12-10-01-05 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe from Bently Nevada is designed for continuous vibration and shaft position monitoring in turbines, compressors, pumps, and other critical rotating machinery. It is widely applied in power plants, oil and gas refineries, LNG facilities, and petrochemical industries where accurate machine protection is required to reduce unplanned downtime and improve operational reliability.

This probe operates as part of the 3300 XL proximity transducer system and ensures stable signal performance in harsh industrial environments with vibration, thermal stress, and contamination exposure. The 1.2 in overall case length supports compact installation in tight mechanical assemblies. The 1.0 m total cable length allows flexible routing in machine housings and monitoring enclosures. The PPS probe tip material provides high chemical resistance and mechanical stability under continuous operation. The stainless steel probe case improves corrosion resistance in demanding industrial environments. The CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals support installation in global hazardous area applications requiring strict compliance standards.

Engineering & Installation Guide

Maintain correct probe gap adjustment during commissioning to ensure linear measurement response and stable vibration output.

Route probe cables away from VFD output lines and high voltage conductors to reduce electromagnetic interference in monitoring systems.

Ensure proper mechanical fixation in high vibration zones to prevent connector stress and long term signal degradation.
