Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-15-01-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-15-01-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is part of the high-performance 3300 XL series, engineered by Bently Nevada for accurate, stable, and durable condition monitoring of rotating machinery. Designed for rugged industrial environments, this model provides precise non-contact measurement of shaft displacement, vibration, and position.

This specific configuration features an 8 mm probe tip diameter, a 5-meter integral cable, and a straight connector. The mounting thread is 5/8-18 UNF, which allows for deeper insertion applications or compatibility with specific probe brackets. It offers robust protection against contamination and extreme temperatures, making it ideal for long-term deployment in mission-critical assets.

Key Features

• 8 mm diameter tip ensures stable displacement measurements

• 5/8-18 UNF thread suitable for standard or deeper mounting depths

• Straight connector with durable coaxial design

• 5-meter integral cable for extended reach

• High temperature tolerance and vibration resistance

• Compatible with 3300 XL extension cables and Proximitor sensors

• Excellent linearity and repeatability over extended operating ranges

• Sealed for harsh environments (IP68 when properly installed)

• Complies with API 670 industry standards for machinery protection

• Part of a modular system for scalable machinery monitoring
