Quick Detail

Description

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-11-10-02-CN 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe is a high-performance, intrinsically certified eddy current transducer engineered for precision machinery health monitoring within the most challenging and safety-regulated industrial sectors globally. As an integral part of the renowned 3300 XL monitoring system from Bently Nevada, this proximity probe is pre-certified with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals, authorizing its direct deployment in Zone 1 and 2 hazardous locations where flammable gases or combustible dusts are present. This eliminates complex engineering assessments and the need for external protective housings, providing a turnkey solution for oil & gas, petrochemical, and chemical processing plants where operational safety is paramount. The probe's robust construction features an AISI 301 or 304 stainless steel (SST) case and a durable Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) probe tip, offering superior resistance to corrosion, chemical degradation, and mechanical stress, ensuring longevity in harsh operational environments.

Engineered for accurate non-contact measurement, this 3300 XL 8 mm sensor delivers a consistent linear range of 2 mm (80 mils), enabling precise detection of both dynamic shaft vibration and static axial position on critical rotating equipment. Its optimized mechanical design includes a 0 mm unthreaded length and a versatile 110 mm (4.33 in) overall case length, making it compatible with a wide array of standard mounting configurations found in turbines, compressors, and large pumps. The probe is supplied with a 1.0-meter (3.3 feet) standard cable terminated with a reliable Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector, facilitating secure signal transmission and seamless integration with the 3300 XL monitoring framework and associated extension cables.

Applications

This probe is the definitive solution for continuous online monitoring of critical turbomachinery located within classified hazardous areas. Its pre-certified CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals allow for direct, compliant installation on gas compressors, process pumps, and turbines in refineries, offshore platforms, and LNG facilities, providing essential vibration and position data while adhering to the strictest international safety standards for explosive atmospheres.

The sensor is extensively used for precise radial vibration and thrust position measurement on high-value assets in power generation and heavy industrial settings. Its reliable performance and robust 2 mm linear range make it ideal for monitoring steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, and large boiler feed pumps, supporting condition-based maintenance programs to detect imbalance, misalignment, and bearing wear, thereby preventing unscheduled outages and costly repairs.

With its stable signal output and durable construction, the probe serves as an excellent source for Keyphasor® reference and rotational speed sensing. It can accurately detect keyways or notches on a shaft, providing crucial timing signals for dynamic balancing, startup/shutdown analysis, and overspeed protection systems in various industrial rotating machines, from paper mill rolls to marine propulsion engines.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1. Factory-Issued Global Hazardous Area Certifications for Simplified Compliance

This probe arrives with fully integrated CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications, making it a pre-qualified, off-the-shelf solution for Zone 1/2 explosive atmospheres. This dramatically reduces project timelines, engineering overhead, and total installed cost associated with obtaining site-specific certifications or implementing external protection methods for uncertified sensors, providing a significant regulatory and logistical advantage.

2. Optimized 110mm Case Length for Universal Installation Flexibility

Featuring a versatile 110 mm (4.33 in) overall case length, this probe strikes an ideal balance for broad compatibility. It readily fits the vast majority of standard mounting holes and depths found in common industrial machinery, offering greater application flexibility and simplifying inventory management compared to probes with non-standard or highly specialized lengths.

3. Engineered for Extreme Environmental Durability and Signal Integrity

The combination of a corrosion-resistant AISI 301/304 stainless steel case and a chemically inert PPS probe tip ensures exceptional long-term reliability in aggressive environments. This rugged build, coupled with a wide operating temperature range (-56°C to +115°C) and low supply sensitivity, guarantees stable, drift-free performance in the presence of moisture, hydrocarbons, and extreme thermal cycles, minimizing maintenance needs and lifecycle costs.
