Bently Nevada 330104-00-05-05-11-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Description

The 330104-00-05-05-11-05 is a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe featuring a 0.5-inch case length (Option 05) and a 0.5-meter total length (Option 05). This transducer, designed for use in 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer systems, utilizes eddy-current technology for non-contact measurement of shaft vibration and axial position in critical rotating machinery. The configuration includes the 11 connector option and the 05 agency approval package, ensuring compatibility with standard hazardous area requirements and monitoring chain components.

This 8 mm probe model is a component of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL system, intended to pair with a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor and extension cable. The system provides a voltage output proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed conductive surface, facilitating precise machinery protection and condition monitoring. The 0.5-meter length option is primarily utilized in installations where the proximity sensor is mounted in close proximity to the machine housing.

Features

• Option 00: Unthreaded mounting style for specific installation requirements.
• Option 05: 0.5-inch case length for compact installation constraints.
• Option 05: 0.5-meter system length, including probe lead.
• Option 11: Miniature ClickLoc connector with female connector and cable protector.
• Option 05: Agency approval package including CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications.
• Designed for 3300 XL 8 mm monitoring chains, fully compatible with 3300 XL Proximitor sensors.

Applications

• Hydroelectric and steam turbines
• Centrifugal and axial compressors

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the probe gap is set according to the Proximitor sensor requirements, typically -9V or -10V depending on the monitoring setup.
• Maintain proper clearance from conductive machine casings to prevent signal interference.
• Route extension cables through shielded conduit to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI).
• Use appropriate thread sealants if necessary for fluid-tight installations, ensuring the probe remains electrically isolated from the case if required by the specific ground loop prevention strategy.

Compliance and Certifications

• CSA (Canadian Standards Association)
• ATEX (Atmosphère Explosible)
• IECEx (International Electrotechnical Commission Explosive)
