Quick Detail

Description

The 330103-00-07-05-02-05 represents a sophisticated iteration of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes series, meticulously engineered by Bently Nevada for high-precision machinery protection. As a critical sensor within the eddy current transducer ecosystem, this 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is designed to monitor the health of rotating assets by providing accurate, non-contact measurements of vibration and shaft position. The 330103-00-07-05-02-05 operates by generating a high-frequency electromagnetic field that detects micro-displacements between the probe tip and the target material, translating these into a linear voltage signal.

Specifically configured with a 70 mm overall case length and 0 mm unthreaded length, this 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is ideal for specialized mounting scenarios where a flush-mount or sleeve-supported installation is required. The 330103-00-07-05-02-05 features a 0.5-meter (1.6 feet) total length, making it a compact choice for proximity sensing where the connection point is localized. For harsh industrial environments, this proximity probe is armored with a Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) tip and an AISI 303/304 stainless steel case, ensuring maximum resistance to corrosive fluids, oil, and extreme temperature fluctuations.

Furthermore, the 330103-00-07-05-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is fully compliant with the American Petroleum Institute (API) 670 Standard, guaranteeing its reliability in mission-critical oil, gas, and power generation applications. It utilizes the patented TipLoc molding process to prevent tip-case separation and CableLoc technology to withstand up to 330 N (75 lbf) of pull force. Equipped with a Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector, the 330103-00-07-05-02-05 ensures a secure, vibration-resistant link to extension cables. This 8 mm proximity probe is the gold standard for operators seeking to minimize downtime through advanced machinery condition monitoring and predictive maintenance strategies.

Applications

Critical Turbine Radial Vibration Monitoring The 330103-00-07-05-02-05 is widely utilized in steam and gas turbines to detect rotor instability. With its 2 mm (80 mils) linear range, it captures high-frequency vibration data, allowing operators to identify misalignment or unbalance before mechanical damage occurs. Its wide operating temperature range (-55°C to +180°C) ensures stable data even in the high-heat zones of turbine enclosures.

Axial Position and Thrust Bearing Protection In large centrifugal compressors and pumps, monitoring the axial (thrust) position is vital to prevent catastrophic rotor-to-stator contact. The 330103-00-07-05-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe tracks the movement of the shaft relative to the thrust bearing, providing a steady-state DC signal that alerts the protection system of excessive wear or load changes.

Hydroelectric Unit Phase Reference (Keyphasor) The short 0.5-meter cable and compact 70 mm case make this probe excellent for providing a Keyphasor signal in hydroelectric generators. By detecting a notch or projection on the shaft, the 330103-00-07-05-02-05 provides a once-per-turn timing pulse, which is essential for determining vector phase angles and calculating rotational speed for diagnostic analysis.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

Enhanced Thermal and Chemical Resilience The 330103-00-07-05-02-05 is built to withstand extreme conditions, featuring an operating temperature limit of up to +180°C. The use of PPS and high-grade stainless steel ensures that the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe remains immune to the corrosive effects of many industrial lubricants and chemical contaminants found in refineries and chemical plants.

Specialized Case Configuration for Versatile Mounting With a 70 mm overall case length and 0 mm unthreaded length, this specific model provides a specialized geometry for installations where external threads are not needed. This allows for cleaner integration into smooth-bore holes or custom brackets, solving mechanical interference issues common with fully threaded probes.

3. Global Hazardous Area Certifications The inclusion of CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals makes the 330103-00-07-05-02-05 a "universal" solution for global projects. Engineers can specify this probe for use in explosive atmospheres without worrying about regional compliance issues, simplifying the procurement and auditing process.

Advanced Mechanical Integrity (TipLoc & CableLoc) Bently Nevada’s patented TipLoc technology prevents the probe tip from detaching under vacuum or pressure, while CableLoc ensures the cable remains securely attached even if accidentally pulled during maintenance. This significantly increases the service life of the 330103-00-07-05-02-05 compared to generic alternative sensors.

Seamless 3300 XL System Interchangeability As a genuine 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe, this unit is fully interchangeable with other XL series proximitors and extension cables. This "plug-and-play" capability eliminates the need for time-consuming field calibration and allows for simplified inventory management, as one probe type can support multiple machinery assets.
