In the realm of industrial machinery protection, this sensor is the frontline defender for critical rotating assets. By utilizing eddy-current technology, the probe captures high-resolution data on shaft radial vibration, axial thrust position, and speed. It serves as the primary input for Turbine Supervisory Instrumentation (TSI) systems, enabling engineers to monitor the health of high-speed shafts within steam turbines, gas compressors, and large-scale industrial generators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis transducer is built to survive the harshest environments found in petrochemical, power generation, and manufacturing plants. It features Bently Nevada’s proprietary TipLoc design, which ensures a permanent, high-strength bond between the sensor tip and the stainless-steel casing. This engineering milestone eliminates the risk of tip separation, a common failure mode in lower-quality instrumentation. With strict adherence to API 670 standards, the 330101-00-27-10-02-00 provides the linear, stable output required for accurate machine protection, ensuring that your monitoring system triggers alarms only when genuine mechanical distress is detected. For procurement managers and maintenance teams, this part represents the gold standard in asset protection, offering long-term reliability that drastically reduces the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for your monitoring infrastructure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"firstRow\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e330101-00-27-10-02-00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBently Nevada\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3300 XL 8 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProbe Diameter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMounting Thread\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3\/8-24 UNF\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnthreaded Length\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCase Length\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e27 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal System Length\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.0 meter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-51 deg C to +177 deg C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTip Material\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePolyphenylene Sulfide (PPS)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.29 kg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShipping Dimensions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e30.0 * 30.0 * 6.0 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eConnector Type\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClickLoc (Standard)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAgency Approval\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStandard\/Non-Hazardous\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Configuration Explanation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ordering string 330101-00-27-10-02-00 is a precise roadmap of the component's architecture:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e330101: Defines the 3300 XL 8 mm standard mount proximity probe family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e00: Indicates 0 mm of unthreaded length, allowing maximum threaded adjustment for gap setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e27: Specifies the probe case length of 27 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10: Denotes a total calibrated system length of 1.0 meter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e02: Specifies the standard ClickLoc connector type for secure, tool-free installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e00: Represents the standard regulatory approval for non-hazardous industrial zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis proximity probe is deployed across a variety of mission-critical industrial sectors:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower Generation: Radial vibration monitoring in steam and gas turbine bearing journals to detect imbalance or alignment issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOil \u0026amp;
