Product Description

The 330104-00-18-10-02-00 is a high-performance 8mm eddy current proximity probe from the 3300 XL series manufactured by Baker Hughes - Bently Nevada.

This non-contact vibration sensor is engineered for rotating machinery condition monitoring, including measurement of:

  • Radial shaft vibration

  • Axial thrust position

  • Rotational speed (tachometer monitoring)

The probe operates using eddy current displacement sensing technology, generating an analog voltage signal proportional to the distance between the probe tip and conductive metallic targets. The 3300 XL platform is known for high chemical resistance and thermal stability, allowing reliable operation in environments with oil mist, steam, and high mechanical stress.

This specific configuration is optimized for standard industrial installations requiring a 3/8-24 UNF threaded mounting body without hazardous area certification requirements.

Application and Installation Guidelines

The 330104-00-18-10-02-00 is commonly used with:

  • Vibration monitoring racks (such as Bently Nevada 3500 and 2300 systems)

  • Turbine, compressor, and large motor protection systems

For accurate measurement performance:

  • The probe must be properly gapped to achieve a DC output voltage typically between -9 V and -10 V, representing the center of the probe’s linear operating range.

  • Always use matching 3300 XL extension cables and Proximitor sensors to maintain system calibration accuracy.

The total system cable length (probe + extension cable) is usually designed to match calibrated monitoring configurations of 5 m or 9 m total length.


FAQ

How do I choose between the 18-10-02-00 and 18-10-02-05 suffix versions?
The -00 variant is a standard industrial model without hazardous area certifications. The -05 variant typically includes ATEX, IECEx, or CSA intrinsic safety approvals for hazardous environments.

Is the connector protector necessary?
Yes. The protector prevents lubricating oil contamination and accidental grounding of the coaxial connection, which could introduce signal noise and measurement errors.

Why is the 1.0 m cable length important?
The 1.0 m lead cable is part of the calibrated probe system. It is typically combined with 4 m or 8 m extension cables to achieve total system lengths that match Proximitor sensor calibration standards.
