Quick Detail

Description

The 330104-07-14-05-01-00 is a high-performance eddy current displacement transducer belonging to the iconic 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes series, exclusively designed and manufactured by Bently Nevada in the USA. As a pivotal component in industrial rotating machinery condition monitoring systems, this 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is engineered to deliver precise gap measurement capabilities, serving as a reliable guardian for preventing machinery failures and ensuring operational safety. Its core functionality lies in converting the physical distance between the probe tip and a conductive target surface into a high-fidelity voltage signal with exceptional linearity, enabling engineers to obtain real-time and accurate data on critical parameters such as shaft vibration, axial position, Keyphasor reference, and rotational speed of rotating equipment. What distinguishes this 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe from conventional transducers is its robust structural design and superior environmental adaptability, making it suitable for deployment in the harshest industrial environments where factors such as extreme temperatures, corrosive gases, lubricating oils, and high particulate matter are prevalent.

Compliant with the stringent American Petroleum Institute API 670 standard, the 330104-07-14-05-01-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe guarantees consistent performance across an ultra-wide operating temperature range from -55°C to +105°C, eliminating signal drift caused by temperature fluctuations and ensuring stable monitoring even in extreme thermal conditions.

Applications

The 330104-07-14-05-01-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is widely used for radial vibration monitoring of rotating machinery in power generation, petrochemical, and heavy industry sectors. With its 2mm linear measurement range and high operating temperature resistance up to 105°C, it can accurately capture tiny dynamic displacements of shafts caused by equipment imbalance, misalignment, or incipient bearing failures. For key rotating equipment such as steam turbines in power plants, centrifugal compressors in refineries, and large industrial fans, this probe provides continuous and stable vibration data, enabling early detection of potential mechanical faults, triggering timely maintenance alerts, and effectively preventing catastrophic failures that could lead to large-scale production shutdowns.

It serves as a critical component for axial (thrust) position monitoring in heavy-duty rotating equipment, especially in power generation units such as hydroelectric and steam turbines. By leveraging the linear relationship between output voltage and gap distance, the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe precisely measures the axial float of the shaft, ensuring that the rotating and stationary components of the equipment remain within safe clearance ranges. This monitoring function is essential for protecting thrust bearings from excessive wear or damage; once the axial position exceeds the safe threshold, the system can immediately issue an alarm or trigger a shutdown, avoiding severe mechanical collisions and extending the service life of core equipment components.

Competitive Advantage

API 670 Compliance and Strict Quality Assurance: The 330104-07-14-05-01-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is fully compliant with the American Petroleum Institute API 670 standard, which is recognized as the gold standard in the industrial machinery protection field. From material selection to production assembly, every process undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure exceptional linearity, temperature stability, and reliability. This compliance enables the probe to meet the strict requirements of "Category 1" critical machinery monitoring in oil, gas, and petrochemical industries, providing users with a trustworthy solution that reduces compliance risks and project uncertainties.

Superior Material Selection and Robust Durability: The probe tip is made of high-performance Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), which exhibits excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance, capable of withstanding corrosion from lubricating oils, acids, alkalis, and other harsh media. The housing adopts AISI 303/304 stainless steel, ensuring superior corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. Compared to probes made of conventional materials, this product has a service life extended by more than 30% in extreme operating environments, significantly reducing maintenance frequency, replacement costs, and total cost of ownership for users.

True Component Interchangeability and Convenient Maintenance: A core competitive advantage of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is its true interchangeability with other components in the 3300 XL series. It can be directly matched with standard 3300 XL extension cables and Proximitor sensor modules without the need for complex calibration procedures. This feature greatly simplifies spare parts inventory management for enterprises, reduces the difficulty and time of emergency maintenance, enables rapid probe replacement within minutes, minimizes unplanned downtime of critical machinery, and effectively improves the overall operational efficiency of the production line.
