Features:
- 330902-04-48-10-02-00 provides 1-meter armored NSv probe with 1/4-28 thread and 4.8-inch case.
- 0.4-inch unthreaded length with full armor for tight installations, small shafts, and small targets.
- TiLoc and CableLoc deliver 220N pull strength with gold ClickLoc connectors for reliable monitoring.
The 330902-04-48-10-02-00 is specifically designed for machinery monitoring applications where standard 5 mm and 8 mm probes cannot fit due to space constraints. The full stainless steel armor with PFA jacket surrounds the cable, providing exceptional resistance to crushing from heavy equipment, abrasion against sharp metal edges, cutting from tools, and impact damage from falling objects. This makes the 330902-04-48-10-02-00 ideal for centrifugal air compressors, refrigeration compressors, process gas compressors, and other machines with tight installation requirements where counter bore, sideview, or rearview restrictions limit the use of standard transducers.
The 330902-04-48-10-02-00 is optimized for applications where standard transducers cannot reliably measure due to target size limitations. It is ideal for measuring radial vibration on shafts smaller than 51 mm (2 inches) in diameter or axial position on flat targets smaller than 15 mm (0.6 inches). The enhanced sideview characteristics of the NSv probe are superior to those of the 3000-series 190 probe when gapped at the same distance from the probe target. The average scale factor is 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil), which is the most common output for eddy current transducers. The linear range is 1.5 mm (60 mils), which exceeds the linear range of the 3000-series 190 Transducer System.
The 330902-04-48-10-02-00 incorporates patented design features for maximum durability in industrial environments. TiLoc 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 due to vibration or thermal cycling. This is critical in high-vibration applications such as compressors and turbines. CableLoc technology secures the probe cable with 220 N (50 lbf) pull strength, preventing accidental disconnection during installation or machine operation. The gold-plated ClickLoc connectors are corrosion-resistant and lock into place with a positive click, preventing loosening from vibration. The probe is mechanically and electrically compatible with previous 3300 RAM probes, allowing gradual system upgrades.
The 330902-04-48-10-02-00 Bently Nevada Proximity Probe may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond
End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

- Small-Diameter Shaft Monitoring: Ideal for measuring radial vibration or axial position on small target profiles, such as shafts smaller than 51 mm (2 inches) or flat targets under 15 mm (0.6 inches).
- Restricted Geometries (Counterbores & Slots): Deployed on machines where the probe must be threaded deep into counterbored holes, high-density brackets, or narrow structural gaps. Standard probes would see the sides of the hole instead of the shaft target, whereas the NSv probe suppresses side-view interference.
- Process Gas Compressors: Widely used on centrifugal and reciprocating compressors. The advanced Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) tip material provides enhanced chemical resistance against corrosive process gases and synthetic lubricants.
- Hazardous Area Approvals: Complies with major global regulatory frameworks such as ATEX, IECEx, and CSA (NRTL/C). When routed through approved zener barriers or galvanic isolators, it is certified for Intrinsically Safe (Ex ia) installations in Zone 0, Zone 1, and Class I, Division 1 environments.
- Non-Incendive/Div 2 Ratings: Approved for Ex nA (Non-Sparking) use in Zone 2 / Class I, Div 2 environments without requiring bulky, explosion-proof conduit sealing, reducing installation footprint.
- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Bears the CE and UKCA Marks. Built with enhanced immunity to radio frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic fields, it maintains low-noise signal tracking even when housed near high-frequency industrial radio or wireless equipment.
- Matched Electrical Length Integration: The probe must match the electrical lengths of the remaining system parts. This 1.0-meter probe requires a 4.0-meter extension cable to operate correctly with a 5-meter 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor, yielding a standard target output scale factor of 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) over a 1.5 mm (60 mils) linear range.
- Backward Legacy Interchangeability: The 3300 XL NSv probe and extension cable are mechanically and electrically backward-compatible with Bently Nevada’s older 3300 RAM proximity systems. It is also designed to replace the legacy 3000-series 190 transducer systems while delivering vastly superior side-view performance and a wider linear window.
- Target Material Tuning: The transducer loop is factory-calibrated to a standard AISI 4140 steel target. Interoperability with alternative metallurgy (e.g., stainless steel, aluminum, or chrome-plated journals) requires custom calibration factors or a specialized Proximitor to avoid signal attenuation or scale factor degradation.
