330103-00-04-10-02-05 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe | Bently Nevada

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-04-10-02-05 serves as the primary sensing interface for the 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Transducer System. This eddy current probe provides non-contact measurement of shaft vibration and position for critical rotating machinery. We guarantee this unit as 100% Brand New and Original, featuring the full suite of international hazardous area certifications required for global industrial compliance.

Part Number Breakdown

The 330103 series uses a modular code system to define mechanical and regulatory specifications:

• 00 (Unthreaded Length): 0.0 inches.

• 04 (Overall Case Length): 4.0 inches.

• 10 (Total Length): 1.0 Metre (3.3 feet).

• 02 (Connector Type): Miniature coaxial ClickLoc™ connector, standard cable.

• 05 (Agency Approval): Multiple approvals including CSA, ATEX, and IECEx for hazardous environments.

Technical Specifications

This probe maintains high linearity and thermal stability under extreme industrial conditions.

Engineering Advantages

• Global Safety Compliance: The 05 Agency Approval provides peace of mind for international operations. By meeting ATEX, IECEx, and CSA standards, this probe allows installation in explosive atmospheres without further modification or specialized housing.

• Superior Connector Integrity: The ClickLoc™ connector eliminates the primary cause of signal loss: loose coaxial joints. The mechanical locking detent prevents the connection from backing out under high-frequency vibration, ensuring a stable "OK" status for your monitoring system.

• Resistant to Industrial Contaminants: The PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) tip and stainless steel case body withstand exposure to moisture, oil, and most industrial lubricants. This durability prevents fluid ingress and prolongs the sensor's lifespan in harsh turbine or gearbox environments.

• Field Interchangeability: 3300 XL probes require no individual calibration. You can replace this probe with any other 3300 XL 8mm probe of the same electrical length without adjusting the Proximitor®, drastically reducing maintenance man-hours.

FAQs

Is this 1.0m probe compatible with both 5-meter and 9-meter systems?

Yes, provided you pair it with the correct extension cable. Use a 4.0m extension cable for a 5-meter system or an 8.0m extension cable for a 9-meter system. Always match the total system length to the Proximitor® calibration label.

Does the 4.0-inch case length affect the sensing range?

No. The case length determines how the probe mounts through the machine housing. The sensing range remains standard (2.0 mm / 80 mils) regardless of whether the case is 2.0 inches or 4.0 inches long.

What is the benefit of buying "Brand New" vs. surplus or used?

Vibration probes are precision instruments. Surplus or used units often harbor microscopic cracks in the tip or internal wiring fatigue that cause "signal spikes." Our 100% Brand New probes ensure you receive full OEM performance and a factory-fresh lifecycle.

How do I ensure a proper seal during installation?

We recommend using a thread sealant or a mounting bushing with an O-ring if you are installing the probe in a pressurized housing or an area with high oil splash. Tighten the probe to a maximum of 11.2 N·m (100 in·lb) to prevent damaging the threads.
