Quick Detail

Description

The 330101-00-20-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is a premium-grade eddy current displacement sensor, engineered by Bently Nevada to set a new benchmark for reliability, durability, and precision in critical machinery condition monitoring. As a leading model within the acclaimed 3300 XL series, this 8 mm diameter proximity probe is designed to deliver uncompromising performance in the most demanding industrial environments, including oil and gas platforms, power generation turbines, and heavy manufacturing facilities. Its robust construction, featuring an AISI 303/304 stainless steel case and a chemically resistant Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) probe tip, provides exceptional defense against corrosion, wear, and chemical attack, ensuring long-term operational integrity.

At the heart of its superior design are Bently Nevada's proprietary patented technologies. The revolutionary TipLoc molding process creates a permanent, inseparable bond between the probe tip and body, effectively eliminating the risk of separation under extreme vibration and thermal stress—a common failure mode in conventional probes. Complementing this is the robust CableLoc system, which provides an industry-leading cable pull strength of 330 N (75 lbf), securing the integral 1.0-meter standard cable and its Miniature Coaxial ClickLoc connector against accidental disconnection and ensuring continuous, interference-free signal transmission. For applications where fluid ingress is a concern, the optional FluidLoc cable configuration offers a hermetic seal to prevent lubricants or process fluids from migrating along the cable, enhancing system reliability and environmental protection.

Applications

This probe is essential for continuous shaft radial vibration and axial position monitoring in large, critical turbomachinery such as gas turbines, steam turbines, and centrifugal compressors. Its 2 mm linear range and high sensitivity enable precise detection of shaft runout, dynamic movement, and thrust bearing position, providing vital data for condition-based maintenance and protecting against failures caused by misalignment, imbalance, or bearing wear.

Certified with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals, the probe is ideally deployed for safety-critical monitoring points within hazardous areas like offshore production modules, refinery compressor trains, and chemical processing units. Its robust stainless steel construction and exceptional operating temperature range (-52°C to +178°C) ensure dependable, long-lasting performance in these corrosive and thermally challenging environments.

The probe's integral 1.0-meter cable with a secure ClickLoc connector and optional FluidLoc feature makes it perfectly suited for monitoring equipment with fluid exposure, such as pump seal housings, gear boxes, and hydro turbine bearings. This configuration prevents fluid leakage along the cable path, ensuring signal integrity and sensor longevity while providing reliable displacement data for equipment health assessment in wet or oil-lubricated environments.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1.Unrivaled Mechanical Durability with Patented TipLoc & CableLoc

The probe's defining advantage is its incorporation of Bently Nevada's patented TipLoc and CableLoc technologies. The TipLoc process ensures a permanent, vibration-proof bond, while the CableLoc system guarantees an exceptional 330 N cable pull strength. This dual-fortification virtually eliminates mechanical failures related to tip separation or cable detachment, delivering unmatched reliability and significantly extending service life in high-stress industrial applications compared to probes using conventional assembly methods.

2.Global Hazardous Area Certification and Fluid Containment Option

Holding the triple certification of CSA, ATEX, and IECEx, this probe provides a globally compliant, ready-to-deploy solution for explosive atmosphere monitoring, simplifying international procurement and compliance. Furthermore, the availability of the optional FluidLoc cable addresses a critical industry pain point by preventing fluid migration along the cable interior, offering superior protection in oil-lubricated or wet machinery and enhancing system cleanliness and sensor reliability.

3.Precision Performance Across Extreme Environmental Conditions

Engineered for excellence, the probe combines a wide 2 mm linear range with an extraordinary operating temperature range of -52°C to +178°C. This ensures high measurement accuracy and stable signal output in the most extreme thermal environments, from arctic cold to turbine-level heat. Coupled with its chemically resistant PPS tip and stainless steel housing, it delivers consistent, trustworthy data for critical protection decisions, minimizing false alarms and ensuring optimal machinery health monitoring.
