Bently Nevada 330103-04-13-10-02-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Technical Specifications

The Bently Nevada 330103-04-13-10-02-00 serves as a high-precision eddy current sensor for industrial machinery. This 3300 XL series probe measures static and dynamic distances between the probe tip and the target. It primarily monitors radial vibration and axial shaft position in rotating equipment. Consequently, it provides essential data for the 3500 Machinery Protection System. Reliable sensing ensures that operators can detect mechanical wear before catastrophic failure occurs.

Technical Characteristics and Design

This proximity probe features a robust 8mm tip design for enhanced signal stability. The specific configuration includes a 1.0-meter cable length and an armored protective jacket. Stainless steel armor shields the internal coaxial wiring from mechanical damage and harsh chemicals. Furthermore, the 330103 series provides a linear range of 2.0 mm (80 mils). It maintains high accuracy even in environments with significant temperature fluctuations or electromagnetic noise.

Industrial Applications

Maintenance teams install this probe on critical assets like steam turbines and centrifugal compressors. It also excels in monitoring auxiliary equipment such as large electric motors and industrial pumps. The rugged construction suits power generation facilities and petrochemical processing plants. Because it adheres to API 670 standards, it ensures global compliance for vibration monitoring. This sensor remains a cost-effective solution for both critical and semi-critical machinery protection.
