Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330101-00-13-05-02-00 is a high-performance 8mm eddy current proximity sensor engineered for non-contacting displacement monitoring. As a primary sensing element for the 3300 XL series, this probe translates the physical gap between its tip and a rotating shaft into a precise linear voltage signal. It is an essential component for Turbine Supervisory Instrumentation (TSI), providing the critical data needed to monitor radial vibration, axial thrust position, and rotational speed on high-speed rotating assets.

Designed for maximum reliability in hazardous and demanding industrial environments, this probe utilizes advanced manufacturing techniques to ensure long-term stability. It is the industry standard for monitoring machinery utilizing fluid-film bearings, such as steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, and large industrial pumps, where accuracy is paramount for preventing catastrophic equipment failure.

Advanced Design and Performance Features

• TipLoc and CableLoc Technology: Employs a patented molding process that creates an inseparable bond between the probe tip and body. The integrated CableLoc design provides a superior pull strength of 330 N (75 lbf), preventing cable separation under mechanical stress.

• Gold-Plated ClickLoc Connectors: Features corrosion-resistant, gold-plated miniature coaxial connectors. These connectors utilize a specialized locking mechanism that requires only finger-tight torque, ensuring a secure electrical junction without the need for specialized tools.

• Universal Component Interchangeability: Part of the 3300 XL "universal match" architecture, allowing probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors to be swapped without time-consuming bench calibration or component matching.

• Extreme Temperature Resilience: While the standard probe operates in high-heat areas, it is fully compatible with Extended Temperature Range (ETR) systems, supporting probe tip temperatures up to 218°C (425°F).

• API 670 Standard Compliance: Fully meets American Petroleum Institute standards for mechanical configuration, linear range, and thermal stability, ensuring high-fidelity data for machinery protection systems.

• Leak Protection Compatibility: Can be paired with optional FluidLoc cables to prevent oil or other process contaminants from migrating through the cable interior into sensitive electronics enclosures.
