Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-10-01-05 is a 3300 XL 8 mm eddy-current proximity probe used for non-contact measurement of relative shaft displacement. Installed with the correct target gap, it detects shaft motion by sensing changes in the electromagnetic field at the probe tip. When combined with a matching 3300 XL extension cable and Proximitor sensor, the channel provides both dynamic vibration information and static position (gap) trending for rotating machinery protection and diagnostics.

This part number specifies a particular mechanical configuration and integral lead arrangement intended for installation on equipment such as turbines, compressors, pumps, and motors that use sleeve bearings or other proximity-based measurement points.

Important correction to listing inconsistencies

• This is a 3300 XL 8 mm probe, not a 3300 NSv probe. NSv is a different proximity family designed for small-target/space-restricted applications.

• SpringLoc terminal strips are not a probe feature; they are associated with certain monitor or I/O modules.

• The probe itself is passive; power and output scaling are provided by the Proximitor sensor and the monitoring input.

Hardware Parameters

Installation and commissioning notes

• Maintain correct probe gap and rigid mounting to achieve repeatable readings.

• Use the correct extension cable length and corresponding Proximitor sensor for the intended system length to preserve calibration behavior.

Industrial Applications

• Radial shaft vibration monitoring on fluid-film bearing machines

• Shaft position and displacement trending for condition monitoring and protection logic (monitor dependent)

• Rotating equipment in oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, and heavy manufacturing

• Replacement of existing 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes where M10x1 mounting and 1 m integral lead are required
