Quick Detail

Description

The Bently Nevada 330101-00-08-05-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is an ultra-compact, intrinsically safe eddy current transducer engineered for precise machinery condition monitoring within space-restricted and hazardous industrial environments. As a certified member of the renowned 3300 XL series from Bently Nevada, this proximity probe distinguishes itself through its exceptionally short form factor, featuring a mere 0.8-inch overall case length and 0-inch unthreaded length, making it one of the most space-efficient sensors in its class. This compact design is purpose-built for integration into densely packed equipment and tight mounting cavities where traditional probes cannot physically fit, without compromising on the high-performance measurement capabilities expected from the 3300 XL ecosystem. The probe is pre-certified with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals, authorizing its direct and compliant installation in Zone 1/2 hazardous locations, thereby providing a ready-to-deploy safety solution for oil & gas, petrochemical, and chemical processing applications.

Engineered for accuracy and reliability, this 8 mm proximity probe delivers a substantial 2 mm linear range, enabling high-fidelity measurement of both dynamic shaft vibration and critical static rotor position. Its robust construction utilizes a durable Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) probe tip for superior chemical resistance, housed within a corrosion-resistant AISI 301 or 305 stainless steel (SST) case, ensuring long-term durability in harsh operating conditions. The sensor is supplied with a 0.5-meter (1.6 feet) standard cable terminated with a secure Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector, facilitating reliable signal transmission and straightforward plug-and-play integration with 3300 XL monitoring systems and compatible extension cables.

Applications

Its ultra-compact 0.8-inch case length and hazardous area certifications make this probe the ideal solution for monitoring critical equipment in spatially constrained and classified zones. It is perfectly suited for gas compressors and pump skids on offshore platforms, within crowded refinery process modules, or in the compact turbine halls of floating production units, where both physical space and explosive atmospheres are defining challenges.

The probe's robust construction and wide operating temperature range enable reliable performance in demanding outdoor and high-heat applications. It is effectively deployed for monitoring fan and pump bearings in power plant cooling towers, compressor stations along remote pipelines subject to extreme ambient conditions, or in the hot, vibration-intensive environments near furnace induced-draft fans, providing continuous health data for condition-based maintenance.

This sensor serves as an excellent Keyphasor® reference and speed detection source in integrated gearboxes and small turbo-machinery. Its compact size allows it to be mounted close to shaft keyways or timing marks on high-speed spindles in compressors and turbine-driven generators, delivering precise once-per-revolution signals essential for dynamic balancing, startup analysis, and overspeed protection systems.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1. Ultra-Short Form Factor for Unmatched Spatial Efficiency

With an exceptionally compact 0.8-inch overall case length and zero unthreaded section, this probe provides a decisive advantage in installations where mounting depth is severely restricted. It enables reliable condition monitoring in applications previously inaccessible to standard-sized 3300 XL probes, such as shallow bearing housings, compact mechanical seals, and retrofits into legacy equipment with minimal clearance.

2. Integrated Hazardous Area Certification in a Miniature Package

This model uniquely combines full CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals with its ultra-compact design. It delivers the critical safety certification required for explosive atmospheres without the size penalty typically associated with certified equipment, offering a pre-certified, plug-and-play solution that simplifies compliance and installation in high-risk, space-limited environments like offshore modules and packaged compressor units.

3. Ruggedized Construction for Extended Service Life in Aggressive Settings

The combination of a chemical-inert PPS probe tip and AISI 301/305 stainless steel case ensures exceptional durability against corrosive process fluids, moisture, and abrasive particulates. This robust build, validated across a wide operating temperature range, guarantees long-term measurement stability and reduces the total cost of ownership by minimizing sensor replacement frequency and associated maintenance downtime in harsh industrial settings.
