Quick Detail

Description

The 330103-00-05-90-02-05 is a premier, factory-integrated solution within the esteemed 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes series, distinguished by its extended cable length and comprehensive safety certifications. Manufactured by Bently Nevada in the USA, this ready-to-install eddy current transducer is engineered to deliver precise, non-contact measurement of vibration and position for critical rotating machinery operating in the world’s most challenging and regulated industrial environments. At the core of its function, this advanced Proximity Probe generates a high-fidelity, linear voltage signal that is directly proportional to the gap between its probe tip and a conductive target surface, providing indispensable data for safeguarding turbines, compressors, and pumps against unexpected failure.

This specific configuration of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes is designed for applications where long cable runs and hazardous location compliance are paramount. It features a generous 9.0-meter (29.5-foot) integrated cable, significantly reducing or eliminating the need for separate extension cables in many installations, thereby simplifying system architecture and minimizing potential connection points. Crucially, the probe is supplied with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx Approvals, certifying it for direct use in Zone 1/2 hazardous areas where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts may be present. This makes the 330103-00-05-90-02-05 an off-the-shelf, compliant choice for petrochemical plants, offshore platforms, and gas compression facilities.

Built to the rigorous performance standards of the 3300 XL platform, this probe ensures exceptional reliability. Its construction utilizes a corrosion-resistant AISI 303/304 stainless steel case and a durable Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) probe tip, offering long-term stability in environments contaminated with oil, moisture, and corrosive agents.

Applications

The 330103-00-05-90-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes are engineered for comprehensive machinery protection in demanding and remote monitoring scenarios. Its primary application is the continuous monitoring of radial vibration and axial (thrust) position in critical rotating equipment such as steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, and large pumps across power generation and hydrocarbon processing industries, utilizing its 2 mm linear range for precise detection of imbalance, misalignment, and bearing wear. The integrated 9.0-meter cable is particularly advantageous for installations where the monitoring rack is located far from the measurement point, such as on large turbine-generator sets or within expansive compressor halls, reducing signal loss and installation complexity. Furthermore, its built-in CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications authorize its direct deployment in hazardous areas (Zone 1/2) commonly found in refineries, chemical plants, and offshore production facilities, where it performs essential vibration monitoring and Keyphasor reference signal generation for phase analysis and speed measurement on “Category 1” machinery, ensuring compliance with international safety standards like API 670 without requiring additional protective enclosures.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1.Factory-Integrated Long Cable for Simplified Installation

Featuring a pre-attached 9.0-meter (29.5-foot) standard cable, this probe drastically reduces the need for external extension cables and junction points in many applications. This integration streamulates installation, lowers overall project cost by minimizing additional components, and enhances system reliability by reducing potential failure points associated with field connections.

2.Pre-Certified for Global Hazardous Area Deployment

Equipped with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals ex-factory, this probe is ready for immediate installation in Zone 1/2 hazardous locations. This eliminates the time, cost, and complexity of obtaining after-market certifications or designing custom protective housings, providing a significant advantage for projects in oil & gas, petrochemical, and mining sectors with stringent safety regulations.

3.Robust, Compact Design for Dense Machinery Layouts

With a compact overall case length of 50 mm and 0 mm unthreaded length, the probe offers a streamlined profile ideal for installations in space-constrained bearing housings or between tight machine casings. Its AISI 303/304 SST and PPS construction ensures this compact design does not compromise durability in harsh, corrosive environments.

4.Guaranteed Performance within the 3300 XL Ecosystem

As a genuine 3300 XL series component, it delivers assured interchangeability and performance synergy with all other 3300 XL monitors and accessories. This plug-and-play compatibility future-proofs investments, simplifies maintenance logistics, and ensures data accuracy and system integrity for critical protection functions.
