Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-05-02-05 is an 8 mm eddy-current proximity probe used for non-contact displacement measurement on rotating machinery. Installed near a conductive target, it detects changes in probe gap and supports shaft vibration and position monitoring when used with the correct extension cable and Proximitor sensor in a complete 3300 XL proximity transducer channel.

This configuration is commonly selected for compact installations where a short integral lead is preferred and where stable signal transfer is required in continuous-duty machinery protection and condition monitoring programs.

Important correction to listing inconsistencies

• The text describes NSv system behavior; however, this part number is identified as a 3300 XL 8 mm probe. NSv is a different proximity family optimized for small targets and restricted mounting. If the application truly requires NSv performance (small targets/side-view constraints), confirm the required NSv probe part number before ordering.

• A probe alone does not provide tachometer/Keyphasor functions; those depend on the transducer channel configuration and the connected monitor system.

Mechanical and Electrical Characteristics

Installation notes

• Correct probe gap and rigid mounting are required to achieve repeatable readings.

• Use a compatible extension cable and Proximitor sensor matched to the intended total system length to maintain calibration behavior.

Industrial Applications

• Radial shaft vibration measurement on compressors, pumps, turbines, motors, and generators using proximity channels

• Shaft position and displacement trending for sleeve-bearing machinery (monitor dependent)

• Retrofit replacement in 3300 XL installations requiring M10x1 mounting and a short 0.5 m integral lead

• Process and utility machinery where non-contact displacement sensing supports predictive maintenance and protection strategies
