Features:
- Interface Between the Rotating Machinery Surface and 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor
- Combines High-Precision Eddy Current Sensing with Robust Industrial Durability
- Operates in Conjunction with the 3300 XL Extension Cables and Proximitor Monitoring Systems
The 330103-00-03-10-02-05 operates as an 8 mm Proximity Probe within a 3300 XL Transducer System, providing reliable non-contact vibration and position data for critical assets. It continuously senses the gap between the probe tip and the target material (typically 4140 steel) and transmits this displacement signal through a 1.0-metre integral cable to a Proximitor Sensor. High-accuracy measurement is standard with the 330103 series; however, this specific configuration utilizes a 30 mm threaded case with M10 x 1 metric threads to allow precise mechanical gapping in restricted housing environments. The 3300 XL design has made improvements in thermal stability and moisture resistance over previous 8 mm designs, incorporating a patented TipLoc molding method.
The 330103-00-03-10-02-05 provides essential sensing functions for the monitoring chain and is a critical component of the vibration measurement path, directly affecting the accuracy of the overall machinery protection system. One probe is required per measurement point (e.g., Radial Vibration or Axial Thrust) depending on the desired monitoring strategy. The 330103-00-03-10-02-05 occupies a physical mounting hole on the machine bearing housing and is typically installed using a bracket or threaded directly into the casing.
For Hazardous Area applications, the 330103-00-03-10-02-05 includes the -05 Multiple Agency Approval option. In addition to standard industrial performance, this configuration complies with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications for use in explosive atmospheres. The 3300 XL 8 mm system executes signal transduction using the specialized gold-plated ClickLoc connectors specified in the hardware options. Using this method, the proximity system ensures a vibration-resistant connection between the probe and extension cable. If the system detects a change in the eddy current field, it will immediately output a proportional voltage to the monitor to reflect the dynamic position of the shaft.
The 330103-00-03-10-02-05 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).

- Condition New Original ready stock
- Product Family 330103-00-03-10-02-00,330103-00-03-10-02-CN
Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Radial Vibration Monitoring: Measuring the dynamic motion of a shaft within its bearings to detect imbalances or misalignments.
- Axial (Thrust) Position: Tracking the longitudinal movement of a shaft to prevent catastrophic internal contact within a machine.
- Keyphasor & Speed Measurements: Providing accurate timing signals for synchronization, phase analysis, and rotational speed calculation.
- Target Environments: Ideally suited for fluid-film bearing machines like turbines, centrifugal compressors, pumps, and large motors.
- System Integration: Typically connected to a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor and then to a monitoring system like the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System.
- Signal Output: Generates a standard scale factor of 200 mV/mil (7.87 V/mm), which is compatible with most industrial vibration monitors.
- Machinery Protection: Used to trigger alarms or "trips" (automatic shutdowns) if vibration levels or shaft positions exceed safety thresholds defined by API 670 standards.
- Mechanical Gapping: The probe must be physically positioned at a specific distance from the target. A common recommended gap is -9 Vdc (approximately 1.27 mm or 50 mils) to ensure it sits in the center of its linear range.
- Interchangeability: The 3300 XL series allows for the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor to be swapped without the need for bench calibration or individual component matching.
- Monitor Configuration: In systems like the Orbit 60 or 3500, users use specialized software to select the "3300 XL 8mm" transducer type and set the appropriate alert and danger setpoints.
- Calibration: The system is factory-calibrated for AISI 4140 steel. If the target material differs (e.g., stainless steel or tungsten carbide), the monitor must be programmed with a custom scale factor to maintain accuracy.
