Functional Characteristics
The 330101-16-28-10-12-05 probe integrates Bently Nevada’s patented TipLoc process, which reinforces the probe tip‑to‑body interface to prevent separation under thermal or mechanical stress. The CableLoc design provides exceptional tensile strength, ensuring secure cable attachment even in high‑vibration environments.
When paired with a 3300 XL extension cable and Proximitor sensor, the probe forms a complete transducer system that outputs a voltage proportional to the target surface displacement. Its reverse‑mount configuration is ideal for installations where front‑mount access is restricted.
The probe meets API 670 requirements for linear range, accuracy, and temperature stability, making it suitable for critical rotating equipment. Full interchangeability with legacy 3300 series components eliminates the need for matched calibration, simplifying maintenance and system upgrades.
Application Scenarios
This probe is commonly used in:
-
Fluid‑film bearing turbines
-
Compressors and high‑speed pumps
-
Keyphasor reference applications
-
Speed measurement systems
-
Machinery requiring reverse‑mount installation
FAQ
Q: What is the advantage of the reverse‑mount design? A: It allows installation from the rear of the mounting bracket, useful when front‑side access is limited.
Q: Is this probe compatible with older 3300 series components? A: Yes. It is fully interchangeable with non‑XL probes and cables without requiring bench calibration.
Q: Can this model be used with FluidLoc cables? A: Yes. FluidLoc cables can be added to prevent oil migration through the cable assembly.
