Quick Detail

Description

The 330103-00-05-05-01-05 is a high-precision component of the globally recognized 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes system by Bently Nevada. This specific 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe configuration is engineered for high-performance vibration and position monitoring in demanding industrial environments. As an eddy current transducer, the 330103-00-05-05-01-05 operates by generating a magnetic field that interacts with a conductive target, providing a linear voltage signal proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed shaft. Within the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes series, this model features a 50 mm overall case length and a 0.5-meter (1.6 feet) total length, making it an ideal choice for compact bearing housings or tight machinery internal spaces where precise gap measurement is critical.

Durability is a cornerstone of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes design. The 330103-00-05-05-01-05 is constructed with a Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) probe tip and an AISI 303/304 stainless steel case, ensuring it remains resilient against oil, moisture, and chemical exposure common in power plants and refineries. This 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe supports a wide operating temperature range from -51°C to +177°C, maintaining signal integrity even under extreme thermal fluctuations. Furthermore, the 330103-00-05-05-01-05 incorporates the Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector, providing a secure, vibration-resistant connection point that simplifies field installation.

Applications

The 330103-00-05-05-01-05 is primarily utilized for the continuous monitoring of radial vibration and axial thrust position in high-speed rotating machinery. Its 2 mm linear range allows for the precise detection of microscopic shaft movements in steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, and industrial pumps. By delivering real-time data to monitoring systems, it enables operators to identify imbalances, misalignments, or bearing wear before they escalate into catastrophic equipment failures, ensuring the structural integrity of "Category 1" machinery.

In complex industrial setups like petrochemical refineries and gas compression facilities, this probe serves as a vital component for Keyphasor signal generation. The 330103-00-05-05-01-05 can be positioned to observe a timing notch or keyway on a rotating shaft, providing a once-per-turn pulse essential for phase analysis and precise speed measurements. This application is crucial for diagnostic engineers who require detailed orbital plots and synchronized data to troubleshoot complex vibration issues in multi-stage turbomachinery.

Given its CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications, the 330103-00-05-05-01-05 is specifically designed for deployment in hazardous areas (Zone 0, 1, and 2). It is extensively applied in offshore drilling platforms and chemical processing plants where flammable gases or vapors are present. The probe’s rugged stainless steel construction and PPS tip ensure it performs reliably in these corrosive and high-temperature environments, providing a "fit-and-forget" solution for remote monitoring locations where maintenance access is limited.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1. Optimized for Compact and Specialized Installations

The 330103-00-05-05-01-05 features a 50 mm case length with a 0 mm unthreaded section, specifically designed for dense machinery layouts. This compact profile allows for installation in narrow bearing housings or internal machine cavities where standard-sized probes cannot fit, providing maximum flexibility for OEM integrations and retrofits without sacrificing sensor performance.

2. Comprehensive Global Safety Certifications

Unlike generic sensors, this probe comes pre-certified with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals. This "off-the-shelf" compliance allows for immediate deployment in regulated hazardous environments worldwide. For project managers, this eliminates the administrative burden and technical risks associated with obtaining third-party safety validations, significantly accelerating project timelines.

3. Superior Material Resilience and Signal Stability

Constructed with AISI 304 stainless steel and high-grade Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), the probe offers exceptional resistance to the harsh fluids and high temperatures found in heavy industry. The patented ClickLoc connector technology ensures a low-loss, moisture-resistant connection, maintaining a supply sensitivity of less than 2 mV change per volt and an output resistance of 46 Ω for consistent, high-fidelity data transmission.
