Bently Nevada 330103-00-22-10-12-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Description

Option 00 (0 mm unthreaded length), Option 22 (220 mm case length), and Option 12 (FluidLoc cable with Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector) specify this 3300 XL 8 mm metric probe configuration — 330103-00-22-10-12-05. This unarmored, threaded proximity probe uses the eddy-current measurement principle to provide precise, non-contact shaft displacement and position feedback. It incorporates standard M10 x 1 case threads without protective armor, making it suitable for direct conduit installations or internal routing pathways where mechanical wear on the cable jacket is minimized.

Unlike basic configuration options that utilize standard cables, Option 12 features a patented FluidLoc cable construction that stops lubricating oils, process liquids, and other fluids from migrating or leaking through the inner core of the cable to the connector end. This specific 1.0-meter configuration is engineered for hazardous environments requiring certified safety approvals (Option 05). The probe pairs with a compatible 3300 XL Proximitor sensor and extension cable to form a complete 5-meter or 9-meter transducer system.

Features

• M10 x 1 Metric Thread: Option 330103 designates a metric threaded probe body without external stainless steel protective armor.
• Fully Threaded Case: Option 00 specifies a 0 mm unthreaded length, maximizing depth adjustment within mounting sleeves or machinery walls.
• Extended Case Length: Option 22 provides a 220 mm overall case length for deep-reach internal mounting configurations.
• FluidLoc Cable Technology: Option 12 prevents oil and liquid leakage through the internal capillary pathways of the cable to protect outer terminations.
• 1.0 Meter Total Length: Option 10 supplies a 1.0 m probe lead length, calibrated to interface seamlessly with 5 m or 9 m Proximitor sensor loops.
• ClickLoc Coaxial Connector: Gold-plated connector mechanism secures with finger-tight torque and prevents vibration-induced loosening.
• Hazardous Area Certified: Option 05 offers native approvals for installation in classified industrial atmospheres.

Applications

• Radial shaft vibration and axial position monitoring in industrial rotating machinery.
• Oil-filled bearing housings, gearboxes, steam turbines, compressors, and high-pressure pumps.
• Deep-reach turbine casing installations requiring a 220 mm metric threaded probe envelope.
• Hazardous area machinery setups requiring ATEX, IECEx, or CSA certified instrumentation.

Installation Guidelines

To establish proper measurement calibration, adjust the probe gap until the Proximitor sensor output reads approximately -10 Vdc (the nominal midpoint of the linear range) when targeted against AISI 4140 steel. Ensure the target surface area is at least 15.2 mm (0.6 in) in diameter to prevent side-viewing errors or signal degradation. Hand-tighten the ClickLoc coaxial connector until it audibly clicks to ensure a low-resistance RF path. Route all field cabling inside protective conduit or cable trays to minimize physical damage and isolate signal paths from high-voltage electrical lines.
