3300 XL 8mm Probe 330101-00-18-10-02-00 New Bently Nevada

Product Overview

The 330101-00-18-10-02-00 represents the industry standard in non-contacting displacement measurement. This probe utilizes an 8mm tip to detect the gap between the probe and a target (typically AISI 4140 steel). It integrates Bently Nevada’s patented TipLoc™ and CableLoc™ technologies to prevent mechanical separation under extreme stress. We supply this unit as a 100% Brand New original component, ensuring your vibration monitoring system maintains the strict calibration standards required for API 670 compliance.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

The 330101-00-18-10-02-00 eliminates the reliability issues common with generic sensors through advanced mechanical engineering:

• TipLoc™ Robustness: The probe tip and body utilize a high-strength bond that prevents "blowouts" in high-pressure environments. This ensures the probe survives even if the machinery seal fails.

• ClickLoc™ Connectivity: The miniature coaxial connector features a gold-plated ClickLoc™ mechanism. This design prevents the cable from vibrating loose and provides a secure electrical connection that resists fluid ingress.

• Exceptional Thermal Stability: The PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) tip maintains its dielectric properties up to +177°C. This prevents signal drift as the machinery reaches its operating temperature, providing consistent data from startup to full load.

• Enhanced Pull Strength: The CableLoc™ design provides 330 N (75 lbf) of pull strength. This prevents the cable from pulling out of the probe during aggressive installation or maintenance procedures in tight conduits.

FAQs

How do I adjust the gap for the 330101-00-18-10-02-00?

Adjust the probe gap by rotating the threaded body within the mounting bracket. Measure the DC voltage output at the Proximitor sensor; typically, a -10.00 VDC output corresponds to the center of the linear range (approx. 50 mils) for standard AISI 4140 steel.

Can I use this probe with a 5-meter Proximitor system?

No. The total system length (probe + extension cable) must match the Proximitor sensor's calibration. This probe has a 1.0-meter lead. To create a standard 9-meter system, you must pair it with an 8.0-meter extension cable and a 9-meter Proximitor.

Does the probe withstand moisture and oil?

Yes. The stainless steel case and PPS tip resist most industrial lubricants and moisture. However, for applications where the connector might be submerged or exposed to high-pressure washdowns, we recommend using connector protectors or fluorosilicone boots to prevent signal attenuation.
