This 8mm proximity probe serves as the critical \"eye\" for your machinery protection system, providing non-contacting displacement and vibration measurements on fluid-film bearing machines. It excels in high-speed centrifugal compressors, steam turbines, and large pumps where sub-micron precision is non-negotiable. By integrating seamlessly with the 3500 Monitoring System, this probe ensures early detection of shaft misalignment or imbalance, preventing catastrophic mechanical failure and optimizing maintenance intervals for critical rotating assets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDecoding the Configuration Suffix\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnboxing the Part Number Logic\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 330101 series utilizes a specific alphanumeric coding system to define physical dimensions and certification standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-00 (Unthreaded Length):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSpecifies a 0.0-inch unthreaded length, indicating the probe body is fully threaded for maximum mounting flexibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-50 (Overall Case Length):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eDefines a 5.0-inch total case length, suitable for standard bearing housing depths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-15 (Total Length):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRepresents a 1.5-meter total cable length, optimized for routing to a nearby junction box or Proximitor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-02 (Connector\/Adapter Option):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFeatures a miniature coaxial connector with a specialized cable protector for harsh environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-05 (Agency Approval):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eCSA\/ATEX\/IECEx intrinsically safe rating, mandatory for Class I, Division 1 or Zone 0 hazardous areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCore Hardware Parameters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"firstRow\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Detail\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBently Nevada (Baker Hughes)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUSA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLinear Range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2.0 mm (80 mils)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Sensitivity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e7.87 V\/mm (200 mV\/mil)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-51°C to +177°C (-60°F to +350°F)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.45 kg (Approx. 1.0 lbs)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e8mm Tip Diameter; 5.0\" Case Length\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHS Code\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e90318080\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngress Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIP68 \/ NEMA 4X (Properly Installed)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eField Deployment Strategy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecision Calibration \u0026amp; Clearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAchieving the correct Gap Voltage is paramount for signal integrity.
