Bently Nevada 330104-00-09-10-11-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Product Overview

When machinery vibration threatens uptime, the Bently Nevada 330104-00-09-10-11-00 delivers precise, non-contact displacement measurement. This 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe is built for harsh industrial environments, offering reliable performance in steam turbines, compressors, and pumps. With its armored construction and FluidLoc cable, it withstands oil, moisture, and mechanical stress, reducing unplanned maintenance.

Technical Specifications

The 330104-00-09-10-11-00 uses a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) probe tip and AISI 303 or 304 stainless steel case for durability. It features a 1.0 meter (3.3 feet) total length with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector and connector protector. The probe is designed for differential pressure sealing with a Viton O-ring. Nominal probe DC resistance is 7.45 ± 0.50 Ω for a 0.5 meter length. The system operates with a -17.5 Vdc to -26 Vdc power supply at 12 mA maximum consumption, and output resistance is 50 Ω.

Industry Applications

This proximity probe excels in rotating machinery monitoring. In steam turbines, it measures shaft vibration and axial position, helping operators detect early bearing wear. For centrifugal compressors, the 330104-00-09-10-11-00 provides accurate gap measurements, ensuring safe operation during load changes. Its armored cable resists abrasion in high-vibration areas, extending service life.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the probe using the M10 x 1 thread into a drilled and tapped hole. Ensure the target surface is clean and made of AISI 4140 steel for optimal accuracy. Gap the probe at 1.27 mm (50 mils) for standard operation. Connect the miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector to the extension cable, and verify the connector protector is secure. Use only 3300 XL 8 mm components for system accuracy.

Maintenance & Reliability

Inspect the probe tip and cable periodically for damage. The PPS tip resists chemical attack, but avoid physical impact. Check the O-ring seal during installation to maintain pressure integrity. For best reliability, keep the probe gap within the specified range and verify power supply voltage stays between -17.5 Vdc and -26 Vdc. Regular calibration checks with a known target ensure consistent performance.
