Bently Nevada 330901-05-55-05-11-05 provides an effective monitoring solution for rotating equipment operating in locations where installation space is limited. The compact 3300 NSv probe makes it practical to monitor shafts and targets that cannot accommodate larger transducer systems. Applications include centrifugal air compressors, refrigeration compressors, and process gas compressors that demand consistent machine condition monitoring. Accurate vibration and position data help improve equipment reliability and maintenance planning.

Integrated with a 3300 NSv extension cable and a 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor, Bently Nevada 330901-05-55-05-11-05 forms a complete eddy current transducer system. Gold-plated ClickLoc connectors create secure electrical connections, while connector protectors reduce the possibility of liquid contamination. TipLoc molding technology strengthens the probe construction, and CableLoc technology delivers 220 N (50 lb) of cable retention for dependable service. These features contribute to stable measurement performance during continuous operation.

Bently Nevada 330901-05-55-05-11-05 also simplifies modernization projects involving legacy monitoring equipment. Compatibility with previous 3300 RAM probes and extension cables supports convenient upgrades in many existing installations. Improved chemical resistance expands application opportunities in process compressor environments, while the average scale factor of 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) and 1.5 mm linear range support accurate monitoring of small shafts and reduced target areas. The result is a flexible transducer solution for a wide range of industrial rotating machinery.

The 330901-05-55-05-11-05 Bently Nevada 3300 NSv Proximity Probe may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

  • Installation Torque Limitation: When installing on a steel base, the recommended maximum installation torque is no more than 6.8 N·m (60 in·lbf) to prevent damage to the housing.
  • Interference Immunity in Narrow Spaces: Designed for narrow fields of view, in confined spaces such as through-holes or side-mounted areas, a clearance of at least 13 mm (0.5 in) should be maintained between the surrounding metal and the probe side to avoid parasitic effects.
  • Secure Cable Connection: The system features a unique ClickLoc gold-plated connector that securely locks the connection with a simple fingertightening, requiring no additional special tools.
  • System Total Electrical Length Matching: Due to variations in total cable length configurations, during installation, ensure that the probe's electrical length perfectly matches the total length of the extension cable combination for 5.0-meter or 7.0-meter sensor systems.
  • Wide Operating Temperature Range: The probe and integrated cable are rated for operation from -40°C to +120°C (-40°F to +248°F), adapting to drastic temperature variations.
  • Excellent Chemical Resistance: The probe head is molded from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and features an integrated Viton (fluororubber) O-ring pressure seal, providing exceptional resistance to process gas corrosion.
  • Explosion-proof and Hazardous Area Certification: This specific model includes a -05 multi-country certification option, fully compliant with ATEX/IECEx Intrinsic Safety standards for hazardous areas.
  • High Mechanical Tensile Strength: The probe transition section incorporates a proprietary CableLoc design, allowing the housing and cable connection to withstand a maximum axial tensile force of 330 N (75 lbf).
  • Small Shaft Radial Vibration Measurement: Specifically designed for monitoring axial displacement and radial vibration in rotating machinery, especially small rotating shafts with a diameter less than 51 mm (2.0 in).
  • Centrifugal Air Compressors: Widely deployed inside the main bearing housings of compact industrial centrifugal air compressors, overcoming the physical space limitations that prevent the insertion of standard 8mm probes.
  • Process Gas and Refrigeration Compressors: Benefiting from high-level sealed chemical protection, commonly used in harsh media environments such as Freon refrigeration units and process natural gas compressors.
  • Axial Displacement Monitoring of Miniature Targets: When the diameter of the target surface at the thrust plate or shaft end of the unit is less than 15 mm (0.6 in), this system provides lower linear distortion than conventional probes.
Description
Bently Nevada 330901-05-55-05-11-05 is a 3300 NSv proximity probe developed for rotating machinery that requires reliable shaft monitoring in confined installation environments. The probe supports radial vibration, radial position, axial thrust position, tachometer, zero speed, and phase reference measurements. A 1/4-28 UNF threaded case without armor allows installation where standard transducer systems cannot easily fit. The probe features a 0.5 in unthreaded length, a 5.5 in overall case length, and a total cable length of 0.5 meter (20 in).

The 330901-05-55-05-11-05 operates as part of the complete 3300 XL NSv Proximity Transducer System, together with a 3300 NSv extension cable and a 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor. The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with connector protector and FluidLoc cable provides secure electrical connections while helping prevent loosening during operation. Gold-plated brass ClickLoc connectors improve connection reliability, and connector protectors help reduce liquid intrusion that could affect signal quality.

Built for demanding industrial environments, the 330901-05-55-05-11-05 offers a probe DC resistance of 4.0 ± 0.5 Ω and supports operating and storage temperatures from -52°C to +177°C (-62°F to +351°F). The NSv probe provides improved chemical resistance compared with the earlier 3300 RAM probe, making it suitable for many process compressor applications. The enhanced side-view characteristics also provide better performance when monitoring small targets or machines with restricted side access.

The 330901-05-55-05-11-05 is widely applied on centrifugal air compressors, refrigeration compressors, process gas compressors, and other fluid-film bearing machines. It is especially suitable for equipment where counter bore, rear-view, or side-view limitations prevent the installation of standard 3300 or 3300 XL 5 mm and 8 mm transducer systems. The average scale factor of 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) provides the common eddy current transducer output while maintaining a 1.5 mm (60 mils) linear range for small shaft and small target measurements.

Mechanical and electrical compatibility allows the 330901-05-55-05-11-05 to interchange with previous 3300 RAM proximity probes and extension cables during many upgrade projects. Existing monitoring systems may continue operating with a 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor, while upgrades from 3000-series or 7000-series 190 Transducer Systems require replacement with NSv probe, extension cable, and Proximitor Sensor components. The patented TipLoc molding process strengthens the bond between the probe tip and body, while CableLoc technology provides 220 N (50 lb) of cable pull strength for dependable long-term performance.
