Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-13-10-02-00 is a high-integrity 8mm proximity probe engineered for the 3300 XL transducer series. This non-contacting sensor is designed to observe shaft motion and position by measuring the gap between the probe tip and a conductive target. As a fundamental component of Turbine Supervisory Instrumentation (TSI), this model provides the raw signal necessary for calculating radial vibration and axial thrust position. This specific configuration features a standard M10 x 1 metric thread with a 0mm unthreaded length and a 130mm total case length, providing a deep-reach solution for machine housings requiring extended sensor penetration.

Industrial Utility and Deployment Scenarios

This proximity probe is a critical sensing element for high-value rotating assets in the power generation and oil and gas sectors. Its 130mm metric case is particularly suited for European-manufactured machinery where sensors must be mounted through thick bearing supports or thermal insulation. The 330103-00-13-10-02-00 is widely deployed on steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, and large-scale industrial motors to monitor radial vibration—detecting issues like shaft unbalance or misalignment—and axial thrust to prevent catastrophic internal contact. By providing deterministic displacement data to Bently Nevada 3500 series monitoring racks, this probe enables advanced predictive maintenance and facilitates automated safety shutdowns to protect against equipment failure.
