Quick Detail

Description

The 330103-00-11-10-02-CN 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is a high-precision, intrinsically safe eddy current transducer, meticulously engineered by Bently Nevada in the USA for critical machinery protection in globally regulated industrial environments. As a specialized variant within the acclaimed 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes series, this model is purpose-built to deliver exceptional accuracy in non-contact vibration and displacement measurement. Its core technology generates a linear, high-fidelity voltage output that is directly proportional to the minute gap between its advanced sensing tip and a conductive target surface, such as a rotating shaft. This capability is fundamental for the continuous condition monitoring and predictive maintenance of vital assets, including turbines, compressors, and large pumps, enabling the early detection of faults to prevent unplanned downtime.

A paramount feature of the 330103-00-11-10-02-CN probe is its comprehensive pre-certification for operation in explosive atmospheres, holding major international hazardous area approvals including CSA, ATEX, and IECEx. This authorization permits direct, compliant deployment in Zone 1/2 locations where flammable gases or dusts are present, offering a significant advantage for sectors like oil & gas, chemical processing, and pharmaceuticals. The probe is constructed with a durable 110 mm overall case length and a 0 mm unthreaded shank, providing a versatile mechanical profile that accommodates a wide range of standard mounting configurations and adapter kits commonly found in industrial settings.

Applications

This probe is indispensable for continuous vibration and axial position monitoring on critical rotating equipment within certified hazardous areas, such as gas turbine-generators on offshore production platforms or centrifugal compressors in ethylene plants. Its integrated CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications provide a fully compliant, ready-to-install sensing solution that meets stringent international safety codes without requiring additional protective apparatus.

The probe's 110mm case length and 0mm unthreaded design make it ideal for retrofit and upgrade projects in power generation and heavy industry, where it can directly replace older or damaged sensors in existing mounting locations without requiring mechanical modifications. This ensures a straightforward performance enhancement for legacy monitoring systems on assets like steam turbines and large fans.

Its robust construction and wide operating temperature range suit it for demanding applications in harsh environments beyond just hazardous areas, such as monitoring pumps and motors in mining operations, pulp and paper mills, or coastal facilities where exposure to moisture, temperature extremes, and corrosive elements is common.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1. Globally Recognized Hazardous Area Certification as Standard

The probe is distinguished by its inclusion of CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals as a standard feature, not an optional extra. This provides immediate compliance for global projects in explosive atmospheres, drastically reducing the engineering, procurement, and installation timeline compared to sourcing and certifying uncertified probes separately, offering a significant regulatory and logistical advantage.

2. Optimized Mechanical Design for Maximum Application Versatility

Featuring a 110 mm overall case length with a 0 mm unthreaded section, this probe offers an ideal mechanical form factor. This design ensures compatibility with the vast majority of standard mounting housings and adapters used across industries, providing unmatched application flexibility and simplifying the specification process for engineers and maintenance teams.

3. Robust Material Science for Uncompromised Longevity and Signal Integrity

The use of a corrosion-resistant AISI 303/304 stainless steel case combined with a chemically inert PPS probe tip creates a sensor built to endure. This material synergy ensures long-term dimensional stability and signal accuracy in environments plagued by oil, chemical splashes, and abrasive particulates, delivering a lower total cost of ownership through reduced failure rates and maintenance intervals.
