Description

Fully unarmored M10 x 1 metric threaded steel probe body (Option 06 unthreaded, Option 13 case length) with a 1.0 m standard coaxial cable (Option 10) and Miniature ClickLoc connector (Option 02) specifies the 330103-06-13-10-02-00 configuration of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe. Because this model is configured with Option 00 for agency approvals, it does not carry certification markings for explosive atmospheres, making it suitable for general-purpose, non-hazardous industrial areas.

Unlike armored variants such as the 330104 series or configurations utilizing integrated connector protectors, this probe features standard unarmored 75 ohm triaxial cable. It serves as a non-contact eddy-current transducer when paired with a compatible 3300 XL Proximitor sensor and extension cable, providing measurements for rotor shaft vibration, axial thrust position, dynamic oil film thickness, and rotational speed or phase reference (Keyphasor) on industrial machinery.

Features

• Option 06: 60 mm unthreaded case section on M10 x 1 threaded case.
• Option 13: 130 mm overall case length made of AISI 303 stainless steel.
• Option 10: 1.0 meter (3.3 feet) total cable length.
• Option 02: Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with standard FEP-insulated probe cable.
• Option 00: General-purpose installation option with no hazardous area approvals.
• 8.0 mm probe tip diameter featuring rugged polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) plastic encapsulation.

Applications

• Shaft radial vibration measurement on steam/gas turbines, centrifugal compressors, and generators.
• Thrust position or axial displacement tracking on industrial rotating shafts.
• Keyphasor, speed, and phase reference measurements.
• Rotor eccentricity and structural casing expansion tracking.

Installation Guidelines

• Do not exceed the maximum case torque rating of 22.6 N-m (200 in-lbf) during installation; typical recommended starting torque is 7.5 N-m (66 in-lbf).
• Always maintain the minimum 25.4 mm (1.0 in) cable bend radius during routing to prevent coaxial core damage.
• Ensure that thread engagement does not exceed 15 mm for the M10x1 threads to prevent internal binding.
• Set the mounting gap to 1.27 mm (50 mils) to establish the correct voltage offset operating centerpoint (nominally -10 Vdc bias).
• Protect the miniature coaxial connection from fluid ingress or environmental contamination using appropriate enclosure or mounting sleeve provisions, especially when exposed to turbine lubricating oils.

Compliance and Certifications

• CE compliant (European Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive)
• RoHS compliant
• Option 00 designates standard-area usage; this variant does not feature hazardous area certifications (such as ATEX, IECEx, or CSA approvals).
