Technical Overview

The 330103-00-16-10-02-05 is a Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe, designed for non-contacting vibration and shaft displacement measurement. Utilizing eddy current technology, it monitors radial vibration, axial thrust, and phase reference (Keyphasor) in high-speed rotating machinery. This model meets API 670 standards for machinery protection and condition monitoring, ensuring precise, high-fidelity signal output.

Featuring a 160 mm metric-threaded case, it is suitable for deep mounting through machine casings or internal brackets, and its Multi-Approval (CSA, AEX, IECEx) certification allows use in hazardous areas worldwide. The chemically resistant Ryton® tip and gold-plated ClickLoc™ connector provide stable, long-term signal integrity even in oil, moisture, and high-temperature industrial environments.

Machinery Protection Application

  • Monitors steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, and gearbox shafts.

  • Ideal for deep housing installations where the 160 mm probe case is required to reach the shaft.

  • Hermetically sealed for use in oil-filled bearing housings, compatible with mineral and synthetic lubricants.

  • Integrates seamlessly with Bently Nevada 3500 Monitoring Systems to detect shaft instability, preventing catastrophic mechanical failure.


Engineering FAQ

What does the "05" approval code provide?

  • The 05 suffix denotes Multi-Approval certifications (CSA, ATEX, IECEx) for hazardous locations, suitable for Class I Division 1 and Zone 0 areas.

Is the probe compatible with immersion in lubricants?

  • Yes. The tip and cable exit are hermetically sealed, making it safe for oil-filled or synthetic-lubricant bearing housings.

Is an extension cable required?

  • Yes. Being a 1.0 m probe, it must be paired with a 4.0 m or 8.0 m 3300 XL extension cable for standard 5 m or 9 m Proximitor® Sensor calibration.

Typical Applications:

  • High-speed turbomachinery monitoring

  • API 670-compliant machinery protection

  • Hazardous area installations requiring global certifications
