Bently Nevada 330103-10-02-10-02-CN 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Description

Designed for high-precision displacement and vibration measurements, the 330103-10-02-10-02-CN probe belongs to the industry-standard 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System by Bently Nevada. This proximity probe is engineered to deliver continuous, linear voltage outputs proportional to the physical distance between the probe tip and a conductive target, such as a rotating shaft. The system provides critical feedback for fluid-film bearing machinery, turbine supervisory instrumentation (TSI), and general asset protection systems.

This specific configuration is tailored for applications requiring a 100 mm unthreaded length and a 20 mm overall case length. Featuring a 1.0-meter (3.3 feet) standard coaxial cable with a miniature ClickLoc connector, the device ensures a highly reliable and vibration-resistant electrical path to the proximitor sensor. The CN option designates country-specific agency approvals for global deployment in specialized industrial zones.

Features

• Features a robust ClickLoc miniature coaxial connector for secure, moisture-resistant connections.
• Provides physical backward compatibility with legacy 3300 series 8 mm transducer system components.
• Designed for harsh, high-vibration industrial environments with excellent thermal and chemical stability.
• Standard cable configuration optimized for precise signal transmission over the 1.0-meter span.

Applications

• Radial vibration and shaft centerline position monitoring in steam and gas turbines.
• Thrust (axial) position tracking in high-speed centrifugal compressors.
• Hydroelectric generator shaft alignment and runout measurements.
• General machinery protection systems in petrochemical, refining, and power generation facilities.

Installation Guidelines

To ensure accurate calibration and prevent cross-talk, maintain the minimum specified mechanical clearance between the probe tip and adjacent conductive materials. Ensure that the ClickLoc connectors are completely clean and dry before mating. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius of the coaxial cable during routing, as physical deformation can introduce signal attenuation and measurement errors.
