Product Overview

The 330103-00-06-15-02-05 is a ruggedized 8 mm proximity transducer part of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL series. This specific configuration features a metric M10 x 1 threaded body with integrated stainless steel armor, designed for non-contacting displacement measurements in high-stress industrial environments. By utilizing eddy current technology, this probe provides critical monitoring of vibration, axial thrust, and shaft position for rotating machinery. Its armored lead ensures the coaxial signal remains protected from mechanical abrasion and chemical exposure, making it a cornerstone for Turbine Supervisory Instrumentation (TSI) in power and petrochemical facilities.

Technical Configuration Details

The alphanumeric designation 330103-00-06-15-02-05 indicates the following specific build parameters:

• Model Number: 330103 (M10 x 1 Thread with Stainless Steel Armor)

• Unthreaded Length: 0.0 mm (Fully threaded case)

• Overall Case Length: 60 mm (06 option)

• Total Length: 1.5 Meters / 4.9 Feet (15 option)

• Connector Type: Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector (02 option)

• Agency Approvals: Multi-certified including ATEX, IECEx, and CSA (05 option)

• Operating Temperature: -52°C to +177°C (-62°F to +351°F)

• Linear Range: 2.0 mm (80 mils) starting at approximately 0.25 mm (10 mils) from the tip

Key Features and Performance

The 330103-00-06-15-02-05 is engineered for maximum longevity and signal stability. The probe tip is constructed from high-performance Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), which is hermetically sealed to prevent oil or moisture from wicking into the probe coil. The 3300 XL system offers superior RFI/EMI immunity, allowing it to meet European CE requirements without specialized shielded housing. Furthermore, the ClickLoc connector system provides a gold-plated, vibration-resistant connection that simplifies installation and maintenance.

Industrial Applications and Integration

This probe is optimized for "plug-and-play" integration within the 3300 XL ecosystem, requiring no bench calibration when paired with matching 3300 XL Proximitor sensors.

• Shaft Monitoring: Ideal for measuring radial vibration and axial position in fluid-film bearing machines.

• Predictive Maintenance: Provides the high-fidelity data needed for early fault detection in compressors, pumps, and turbines.

• Hazardous Locations: Certified for use in explosive atmospheres via ATEX and IECEx pathways.

• Backward Compatibility: Electrically compatible with older 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm systems when following proper installation guidelines.
