Quick Detail

Description

The 330101-20-40-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is a high-precision eddy current transducer engineered and manufactured by Bently Nevada in the USA, tailored for non-contact measurement of vibration, displacement, and position in critical rotating machinery. As a core member of the trusted 3300 XL product line, this proximity probe combines patented mechanical innovations and robust electrical performance to deliver unparalleled reliability in the most demanding industrial environments, from power generation plants to oil & gas refineries. Boasting a 2.0 in unthreaded length and 4.0 in overall case length, the 330101-20-40-10-02-05 proximity probe features a streamlined, compact design that fits seamlessly into space-restricted bearing housings and machinery gaps, eliminating the need for costly equipment modifications during installation.

Equipped with a 1.0-meter (3.3 feet) standard cable terminated with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector, this proximity probe ensures plug-and-play compatibility with Bently Nevada Proximitor monitor modules, enabling fast, hassle-free integration into existing machinery protection systems. What sets the 330101-20-40-10-02-05 proximity probe apart is its dual patented technologies: TipLoc molding and CableLoc retention systems. The TipLoc design permanently bonds the Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) probe tip to the AISI 301/304 stainless steel case, eliminating the risk of tip separation under extreme vibration, thermal cycling, or mechanical shock— a common failure point in conventional probes. Meanwhile, the CableLoc system anchors the cable to the probe body with a pull strength of up to 330 N (75 lbf), preventing cable loosening or detachment during operation or maintenance.

Applications

The 330101-20-40-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is primarily deployed for continuous condition monitoring of critical rotating equipment, including steam turbines, gas turbines, centrifugal compressors, and large industrial pumps, across power generation, oil & gas, and petrochemical sectors. Its 2 mm linear measurement range enables precise detection of radial vibration, axial displacement, and shaft runout, providing maintenance teams with actionable data to identify potential faults early and avoid unplanned downtime that could lead to costly production losses.

Thanks to its CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications, this proximity probe is ideally suited for use in hazardous industrial environments, such as offshore oil platforms, refinery processing units, and chemical plants where explosive atmospheres are present. Its rugged construction— featuring a corrosion-resistant stainless steel case and PPS probe tip— withstands exposure to harsh chemicals, extreme temperature fluctuations, and high humidity, eliminating the need for additional protective enclosures and reducing on-site installation costs.

The 330101-20-40-10-02-05 proximity probe serves as a key component for system retrofits and upgrades, offering seamless compatibility with legacy Bently Nevada 3300 XL monitoring systems as well as new-generation Proximitor modules. Its 1.0-meter integrated cable and ClickLoc connector simplify on-site wiring, making it a preferred choice for plant operators looking to enhance their machinery protection capabilities without overhauling their entire monitoring infrastructure, supporting both short-term maintenance needs and long-term predictive maintenance strategies.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1.Dual Patented Technologies for Unmatched Mechanical Reliability

Integrated with Bently Nevada’s proprietary TipLoc and CableLoc systems, the probe eliminates two of the most common failure modes in proximity probe installations: tip separation and cable detachment. The TipLoc molding ensures permanent bonding between the probe tip and case, while the CableLoc retention system provides a 330 N pull strength, significantly extending the probe’s service life and reducing maintenance frequency in high-vibration industrial environments.

2.Global Hazardous Area Certifications for Regulatory Compliance

Pre-certified by CSA, ATEX, and IECEx, the 330101-20-40-10-02-05 proximity probe meets strict international safety standards for use in Zone 1/2 explosive atmospheres. This pre-approval eliminates the time, cost, and administrative burden of obtaining third-party certifications, making it a seamless choice for global industrial projects and ensuring compliance with local regulatory requirements.

3.Extreme Temperature Tolerance for Broad Environmental Adaptability

With an operating temperature range of -55°C to +168°C (-63°F to +349°F), the probe outperforms conventional transducers with narrower temperature limits, enabling reliable operation in both cryogenic and high-heat industrial settings. This broad adaptability expands its application scope across diverse industries, from arctic oil drilling operations to high-temperature turbine power plants, without compromising measurement accuracy.

4.Plug-and-Play Compatibility for Streamlined System Integration

As a genuine Bently Nevada OEM component, the probe guarantees 100% compatibility with all 3300 XL series Proximitor monitors and accessories. Its miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector enables fast, secure connections, eliminating signal matching issues and simplifying inventory management for plant maintenance teams. Combined with in-stock availability and 5-7 days fast delivery, it ensures timely deployment for urgent maintenance and project needs.
