Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-16-10-02-05 is a high-precision proximity probe belonging to the 3300 XL 8mm Proximitor® Sensor System. This sensor is designed for non-contacting measurement of shaft vibration and displacement in critical rotating machinery. With a 1.6-inch case length and comprehensive international agency approvals, it is engineered for reliability in the most demanding industrial environments. We supply this unit as 100% brand new and original, ensuring the highest level of machinery protection and performance.

Part Number Breakdown

The configuration for model 330103-00-16-10-02-05 defines the following mechanical and regulatory traits:

Technical Specifications

This 3300 XL 8mm probe maintains exceptional precision under extreme conditions:

• Probe Tip Material: Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS)

• Thread Size: 3/8-24 UNF-2A

• Linear Range: 2.0 mm (80 mils)

• Scale Factor: 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil)

• Operating Temperature: -51 °C to +177 °C (-60 °F to +351 °F)

• Probe Pressure Rating: 700 psi (48 bar)

• Connector Style: Gold-plated ClickLoc™ coaxial connection

• Target Material: AISI 4140 Steel (Standard calibration)

Engineering Advantages

• Certified for Hazardous Locations: The -05 approval option provides comprehensive certification (ATEX, IECEx, CSA) for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. This simplifies global procurement and ensures compliance with international safety standards for oil, gas, and power generation sectors.

• Deep Case Reach: The 1.6-inch overall case length is ideal for installations requiring the probe to reach through thicker bearing housings or mounting brackets, ensuring a stable and secure thread engagement.

• Superior Chemical Resistance: The probe tip utilizes high-performance Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). This material resists chemical attack from reactive industrial lubricants and moisture, preventing calibration shifts during years of service.

• Positive-Locking ClickLoc™ Connector: The gold-plated connector prevents signal noise and intermittent data loss caused by oxidation. The ClickLoc™ mechanism ensures the cable remains securely joined despite high-frequency mechanical vibrations.

• Environmental Connector Shielding: The standard protective boot (-02 option) shields the coaxial connection from moisture and industrial contaminants, preserving the low-voltage signal integrity from the probe to the extension cable junction.

FAQs

• What extension cable is compatible with this 1.0-meter probe?

  To achieve a standard 5.0-meter system length, pair this 1.0-meter probe with a 4.0-meter extension cable. For a 9.0-meter system, use an 8.0-meter extension cable. Always ensure the Proximitor sensor matches the total system electrical length.

• Is this Bently Nevada probe 100% brand new?

  Absolutely. We guarantee that every 330103-00-16-10-02-05 we ship is brand new and original in factory-sealed packaging. We do not supply used, surplus-pulled, or refurbished proximity hardware.

• How does the 1.6-inch case length benefit my installation?

  The longer case length provides more flexibility for mounting in deeper access ports. It allows for secure positioning and locking without the need for additional spacers in specific bearing housing designs.

• Can this probe be used in high-pressure environments?

  Yes. The probe is rated to withstand 700 psi (48 bar) at the probe tip and through the case seal, making it suitable for direct installation in high-pressure compressor or gearbox casings.
