Bently Nevada 330103-00-06-10-02-CN 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Description

Option 00 (0 mm unthreaded length) and Option 06 (60 mm case length) specify this metric 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe configuration - 330103-00-06-10-02-CN. This unarmored, non-contact transducer features an M10 x 1 thread and a 1.0-meter cable length ending in a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector. It operates as part of a 3300 XL 8 mm transducer system, generating an electrical signal proportional to the gap between the probe tip and a target surface.

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-06-10-02-CN probe is used to monitor shaft vibration and axial position on fluid-film bearing machinery, such as turbines, compressors, and pumps. This specific configuration includes the -CN suffix, which integrates a dedicated China hazardous area approval package consisting of NEPSI and CCC certifications. The unarmored design simplifies installation in standard conduit routings, while the ClickLoc connector without a protector provides a compact connection profile inside the junction box or probe sleeve.

Features

• M10 x 1 metric thread structure with fully threaded 60 mm case length (0 mm unthreaded).
• 1.0-meter total cable length using standard coaxial cable without mechanical armor.
• Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection to the extension cable.
• -CN China hazardous area approval package with CCC and NEPSI certifications for industrial deployment.
• TipLoc molding process creates a high-strength bond between the PPS plastic probe tip and the stainless steel case.
• CableLoc design delivers 330 N (75 lbf) of pull strength to prevent cable detachment.

Applications

Used primarily on rotating machinery with fluid-film bearings, including turbine generators, industrial compressors, steam turbines, gas turbines, and large process pumps. It is ideal for monitoring radial shaft vibration, axial thrust position, Keyphasor phase reference, and speed sensing in environments requiring China-specific NEPSI or CCC industrial certifications.

Installation Guidelines

Ensure that the mounting location allows sufficient clearance around the probe tip to prevent side-view interference from adjacent metal surfaces. The minimum recommended clearance is 40 mm (1.6 in) diameter around the probe tip. Avoid exceeding the maximum thread engagement limit of 15 mm for M10 x 1 threads to prevent binding. Tighten the probe case to the recommended torque of 3.4 N-m (30 in-lb). Connectors should be finger-tightened to ensure a secure, gold-plated electrical contact without over-tightening. Run probe cables in designated conduit to protect against physical wear and fluid contamination.
