Bently Nevada 330104-00-19-10-01-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe Overview

Product Overview

When rotating machinery demands precise vibration monitoring, the Bently Nevada 330104-00-19-10-01-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe delivers reliable performance. This probe is part of the proven 3300 XL series, designed for non-contact displacement measurements in critical applications like turbines, compressors, and pumps. Its robust construction and agency approvals make it a trusted choice for industrial environments.

Technical Specifications Breakdown

The 330104-00-19-10-01-05 features a polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) probe tip and an AISI 303 or 304 stainless steel case for durability. It uses an M10 x 1 thread and includes armor for added protection. The unthreaded length is 00 mm, the overall case length is 190 mm, and the total length is 1.0 meter (3.3 feet). The connector is a miniature coaxial ClickLoc type with a connector protector and standard cable. Agency approvals include CSA, ATEX, and IECEx. The nominal probe DC resistance from center conductor to outer conductor is 7.59 ± 0.50 Ω at 1.0 meter probe length. The probe is designed to seal differential pressure between the tip and case using a Viton O-ring.

Industry Applications

This proximity probe excels in monitoring shaft vibration and position in steam turbines, gas turbines, and centrifugal compressors. Its 8 mm diameter and PPS tip withstand harsh conditions, while the armored cable resists mechanical wear. In oil and gas facilities, the ATEX and IECEx approvals ensure safe operation in hazardous areas. The probe's 1.0 meter length suits installations where the sensor must be close to the target, reducing signal degradation.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the 330104-00-19-10-01-05 using the M10 x 1 thread into a compatible bracket or housing. Ensure the probe tip is clean and gapped at 1.27 mm (50 mils) for optimal performance with an AISI 4140 steel target. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector simplifies cable attachment and provides a secure connection. Route the armored cable away from high-temperature surfaces and sharp edges to prevent damage. Verify the system uses only 3300 XL 8 mm components for specified accuracy.

Maintenance & Reliability

Regularly inspect the probe tip for contamination or wear. The PPS material resists many chemicals, but periodic cleaning with a soft, dry cloth is recommended. Check the connector and cable for signs of damage or corrosion. The Viton O-ring maintains seal integrity; replace it if leakage is suspected. Following these steps extends probe life and reduces unplanned downtime, maximizing return on investment.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

Before ordering, confirm that the 330104-00-19-10-01-05 matches your system requirements: 8 mm probe size, 1.0 meter cable length, and M10 x 1 thread. Verify compatibility with your 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor and extension cable. For current availability and lifecycle status, contact plcmatrix.com.
