Features:
- Power Interface for the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System
- Integrated Eddy Current Sensing with Standard and Extended Cable Compatibility
- Designed for Seamless Operation with 3300 XL Extension Cables and Proximitor Sensors
The Bently Nevada 330101-00-12-20-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe operates as the primary sensing element in the 3300 XL proximity transducer system, providing accurate detection of conductive surfaces for vibration and position monitoring applications. The 330101-00-12-20-02-05 continuously converts physical displacement into a proportional electrical signal, generating an output voltage directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed conductive surface. This signal is transmitted through the standard cable to the 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor, which conditions and processes the data for both static (position) and dynamic (vibration) measurements. Seamless integration is standard with the 330101-00-12-20-02-05, and using the complete 3300 XL system configuration allows seamless compatibility with extension cables for installations requiring greater distances between the probe and monitoring equipment. The 330101-00-12-20-02-05 has incorporated significant design improvements over previous proximity probe generations, including enhanced linear range accuracy and full compliance with API 670 standards for mechanical configuration and temperature stability.
The 330101-00-12-20-02-05 provides essential sensing functions critical to the entire transducer system, and is a vital component of the monitoring path, directly affecting the proper, normal operation of machinery protection and condition monitoring systems. One 330101-00-12-20-02-05 probe is required per measurement point, working in conjunction with one 3300 XL extension cable and one 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor to form a complete channel. The 330101-00-12-20-02-05 features a compact form factor with 3/8-24 UNF thread, 0.0 inch unthreaded length, and 1.2 inch overall case length, making it suitable for installations where mounting space is limited.
For applications requiring Keyphasor reference and speed measurements, the 330101-00-12-20-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe delivers precise timing signals essential for phase-related diagnostics. In addition to standard vibration monitoring, the 330101-00-12-20-02-05 performs automatic detection of both static position changes and dynamic vibration events. The 3300 XL system executes signal processing using the internal circuitry specified in the Proximitor Sensor options. Using this method, the monitoring system continually tracks the health of rotating machinery. If the system detects that vibration levels or shaft position have exceeded configured alarm thresholds, it will automatically trigger alerts and place an event in the system event list for operator action.
The 330101-00-12-20-02-05 Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
