Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330101-00-12-15-02-05 is a high-precision non-contact proximity probe from the 3300 XL 8 mm series, a widely deployed industrial solution for monitoring critical machinery. Built to measure the static and dynamic displacement of rotating shafts, this proximity probe plays a central role in condition monitoring and machinery protection systems.
Manufactured by Bently Nevada, a division of Baker Hughes, the 330101 probe is part of a transducer system that includes an extension cable and Proximitor® sensor. This model is engineered for robust, long-life operation in harsh environments including oil refineries, power plants, petrochemical facilities, and manufacturing.
This specific variant, with a 12 ft probe length and 15 ft cable, offers extended range connectivity, making it suitable for installations where cable routing and environmental shielding are critical.
