Description
Overview
The Bently Nevada 330103‑00‑03‑05‑01‑05 proximity probe is part of the 3300 XL 8 mm transducer family, designed for precise shaft vibration and position measurement in rotating machinery. When used with the matching extension cable and Proximitor sensor, the system produces a voltage output proportional to the probe‑to‑target distance, enabling accurate monitoring of both static displacement and dynamic vibration.
This probe is widely applied in fluid‑film bearing machines, Keyphasor phase reference systems, and speed measurement applications where high linearity and long‑term stability are essential.
Design Characteristics
The probe features an M10 × 1 threaded body, a minimum case length of 30 mm, and a 0.5‑meter integral cable. The Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector includes a protective sleeve to ensure secure, corrosion‑resistant connections. As part of the 3300 XL platform, the probe supports full interchangeability with all compatible extension cables and Proximitor sensors, eliminating the need for field calibration or matched component sets.
The 330103‑00‑03‑05‑01‑05 meets API 670 requirements for linear range, mechanical configuration, accuracy, and temperature stability. It also carries CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications for use in hazardous industrial environments.
