Quick Detail

Description

The 330104-00-04-10-02-CN 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe stands as a pinnacle of precision measurement technology, engineered for the rigorous demands of modern industrial health monitoring and protection. Manufactured by Bently Nevada in the USA, this proximity probe is an essential sensor for the 3300 XL 8 mm system, delivering high-fidelity, non-contact displacement data critical for safeguarding high-value rotating machinery from catastrophic failure. Its core operation utilizes the eddy-current principle to instantaneously and linearly convert the minute physical gap between its probe tip and a conductive target surface into a stable voltage signal, providing indispensable real-time insights into shaft radial vibration, axial position, Keyphasor reference, and rotational speed.

A defining hallmark of this 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is its uncompromising build quality and adherence to international standards. Designed in strict compliance with the API 670 machinery protection standard, it guarantees exceptional performance consistency and temperature stability across an extensive operating temperature range from -45°C to +105°C. The probe incorporates premium materials engineered for longevity: the sensing tip is fabricated from high-temperature, chemically inert Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), while the robust housing is constructed from AISI 303 or 304 stainless steel. This combination provides superior corrosion resistance and durability, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments laden with lubricants, process gases, and particulates.

Applications

The 330104-00-04-10-02-CN 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is fundamental for protecting high-speed rotating equipment such as steam and gas turbines, centrifugal compressors, and large electric motors. Its 2 mm linear range and high-resolution output enable precise monitoring of radial vibration to detect imbalance, misalignment, and developing bearing issues. Its capability to operate reliably in temperatures from -45°C to +105°C, combined with its compact form and 0 mm unthreaded length, makes it suitable for the challenging thermal and spatial conditions inside turbine casings and compressor housings, forming the backbone of predictive maintenance programs to avoid unscheduled outages.

This probe provides critical axial position (thrust) monitoring for machinery with thrust bearings, such as turbines and pumps. The linear voltage-to-gap relationship allows for accurate measurement of shaft float, ensuring rotating components operate within safe mechanical clearances to prevent damaging contact. Its robust construction from stainless steel and PPS tip material ensures signal integrity and sensor longevity even in environments exposed to oil, moisture, and vibration, which is essential for long-term reliability in power generation and marine propulsion systems.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1. Certified Safety for Global Hazardous Area Deployment

This probe is pre-certified with major international explosion-proof standards, including CSA, ATEX, and IECEx. This certification suite permits immediate and compliant installation in Zone 1/2 hazardous areas containing flammable gases or dust, which is a mandatory requirement in industries like oil & gas, petrochemicals, and mining. It eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming third-party certification processes for end-users, providing a true plug-and-play safety solution that reduces project risk and simplifies global procurement and deployment.

2. Unmatched Durability from Premium Material Engineering

Constructed for extreme service life, the probe utilizes a Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) tip for exceptional thermal and chemical resistance, paired with a housing made from AISI 303/304 stainless steel for superior mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. This premium material combination far exceeds the durability of standard sensor constructions, significantly extending mean time between failures (MTBF) in corrosive, high-temperature, or particulate-laden environments. This results in lower long-term total cost of ownership through reduced replacement frequency and maintenance interventions.

3. Exceptional Signal Integrity and Operational Stability

The probe delivers high-precision measurement with a 2 mm linear range and exhibits outstanding electrical stability. Its extremely low supply sensitivity (less than 2 mV/V) makes the output signal highly resistant to fluctuations in the input power supply, ensuring consistent accuracy. Coupled with a stable 45 Ω output resistance and designed for use with standard field wiring, it guarantees reliable, high-fidelity signal transmission over necessary distances. This operational stability is crucial for accurate condition monitoring and trustworthy diagnostic data, preventing false alarms and enabling precise machinery health assessment.
