Features:
- 330104-05-10-50-02-05 provides 50mm unthreaded length with 100mm case for deep probe tip reach.
- 5.0-meter total length with full armor and CSA, ATEX, IECEx hazardous area approvals.
- TipLoc molding and CableLoc design deliver 330N pull strength with gold ClickLoc connectors.
The 330104-05-10-50-02-05 features a substantial 50 mm unthreaded length (05 × 10 mm increments), providing a long smooth cylindrical section between the probe tip and the M10 x 1 threaded portion. This extended unthreaded section allows the probe to be inserted deeper into machine casings before the threads begin to engage, which is particularly valuable for applications where the target surface is recessed deep within the machine housing. This is common in large compressors, steam turbines with thick casings, and gearboxes where the shaft is significantly inset from the mounting surface.
The 330104-05-10-50-02-05 combines full stainless steel armor protection with comprehensive hazardous area certifications. The flexible AISI 302 stainless steel armor with PFA outer jacket surrounds the cable, providing excellent resistance to crushing from heavy equipment, abrasion against sharp metal edges, cutting from tools, and impact damage from falling objects. This makes the 330104-05-10-50-02-05 suitable for the most demanding turbomachinery installations where cables are routed along machine frames or through cable trays with other heavy cables. Agency approval option 05 provides CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications for installation in explosive atmospheres worldwide, including Zone 0, Zone 1, Zone 2, Division 1, and Division 2 hazardous locations commonly found in refineries, chemical plants, and offshore platforms.
The 330104-05-10-50-02-05 incorporates multiple patented design features for maximum durability in harsh industrial environments. TipLoc molding creates a permanent, robust bond between the probe tip and the probe body, eliminating a common failure point found in older designs where the tip could become loose or separate from the body due to vibration or thermal cycling. This is especially critical in high-vibration applications such as gas turbines, steam turbines, and high-speed compressors. CableLoc technology secures the probe cable with 330 N (75 lbf) pull strength, preventing accidental disconnection during installation or machine operation.
The 330104-05-10-50-02-05 Bently Nevada Proximity Probe may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond
End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

- Turbomachinery Diagnostics: Deployed in power generation steam turbines and petrochemical gas turbines to track high-speed rotor dynamics.
- Centrifugal and Axial Compressors: Tracks shaft vibration characteristics to prevent severe impellers-to-casing rubs.
- Large Industrial Pumps and Motors: Monitors continuous radial shaft deflection and thrust offset on critical plant infrastructure.
- Hydroelectric Generators: Evaluates steady-state structural bearing shifts and low-frequency vibration on large-diameter vertical or horizontal shafts.
- Probe Tip & Cable Tolerances: Operates across a wide standard thermal layout spanning -51 °C to +177 °C (-60 °F to +350 °F).
- Thermal Stability: Designed with minimal scale factor shifting over its temperature range, ensuring stable telemetry even when the machine reaches full operating load temperatures.
- Tip Composition: The probe head is molded from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), a high-performance engineering thermoplastic that resists chemical degradation from synthetic turbine oils, water, or process ammonia.
- Identifies relative micro-inch shaft displacement inside the bearing shell.
- Measures the physical drift of the rotor shaft relative to the thrust bearing face.
- Tracks precise shaft rotational speeds or captures a once-per-turn reference signal (Phase Angle) from a machined notch on the shaft.
- Dynamic Loop Verification: The monitor rack continuously tracks the probe loop's static DC gap voltage. A standard working gap sits at approximately -10 VDC (the midpoint of the linear 80-mil measurement envelope).
