This 8mm proximity probe tracks dynamic shaft vibration, axial position, and thermal growth with micro-inch accuracy, transferring the raw physical displacement data straight to Bently Nevada 3500 protection racks and plant-wide DCS architectures. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance in hostile machinery interiors, maintaining a constant 200 mV\/mil output scale despite the presence of turbulent bearing oils and high operating pressures. Plant engineers trust this specific model within emergency shutdown loops and automated safety configurations to prevent catastrophic machine damage, minimize expensive forced outages, and secure uninterrupted production uptime across complex oil, gas, and power generation processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart Number Structural Configuration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e330102 Base Model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis defines a 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe with a 3\/8-24 UNF English thread profile, serving as a reliable structural match for standard industrial machine casings and specialized bracket assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnthreaded Length Suffix (-04)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 04 code designates an unthreaded length of 0.4 inches.

The 3300 XL probe exhibits a different electrical impedance profile compared to older series components; using mismatched elements skews the 200 mV\/mil scale factor, shifts the nominal gap voltage, and introduces non-linear errors across the vibration monitoring range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ2: How do I verify if the probe has suffered an internal short circuit or coil failure?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA2: Disconnect the probe from the extension cable and measure the resistance across the ClickLoc center pin and outer body using a digital multimeter. A functional 3300 XL 8mm probe with a 1.0-meter cable exhibits a continuous DC resistance between 5.9 and 7.7 ohms. A reading near zero ohms points to an internal short, while a reading of infinity confirms an open circuit loop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ3: What is the purpose of the option 02 connector protector on this specific assembly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA3: Option 02 includes a specialized silicone sleeve molded directly over the miniature coaxial connector. This design prevents internal bearing oil, moisture, and fine metal dust from seeping into the high-impedance coaxial junction, eliminating potential ground faults and signal noise without requiring separate field-applied self-vulcanizing tape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ4: Can this probe be mounted through a machine casing without a separate housing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA4: Yes, you can mount this probe directly through a threaded hole in the machine casing, provided the casing thickness matches the unthreaded and threaded body lengths. However, for easier gap adjustments and online maintenance without opening the machine, we recommend using an external Bently Nevada proximity probe housing assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bently Nevada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45518878834861,"sku":"330102-04-16-10-02-00","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/1613\/9181\/files\/bently-nevada-330102-04-16-10-02-00-3300-xl-8-mm-probe-xcml20v0oln.jpg?v=1766980823","url":"https:\/\/www.maxwellplc.com\/products\/bently-nevada-330102-04-16-10-02-00-3300-xl-8mm-proximity-transducer-probe","provider":"Maxwell PLC Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
