330703-00-100-10-11-CN | Bently Nevada | 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Probes
Technical Overview
The Bently Nevada 330703-00-100-10-11-CN is an 11 mm eddy current proximity probe designed for non-contact displacement and vibration measurement on rotating machinery. It functions as a core component of the 3300 XL 11 mm Transducer System, which also includes a matched extension cable and a 3300 XL 11 mm Proximitor Sensor. The system operates on the eddy current principle, where the Proximitor Sensor emits a high-frequency radio frequency (RF) signal through the probe and extension cable. This signal radiates from the probe tip, creating an electromagnetic field. When a conductive target, such as a machine shaft, enters this field, eddy currents are induced on its surface. These currents create a secondary magnetic field that opposes the primary field, causing a measurable change in the RF signal's impedance. The Proximitor Sensor demodulates this signal to produce a DC voltage directly proportional to the gap between the probe tip and the target surface. This analog voltage signal is then transmitted to a monitoring system, such as the Bently Nevada 3500 series, for real-time analysis of radial vibration, axial position, and shaft speed. The 330703-00-100-10-11-CN features a robust stainless steel case and a chemically resistant Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) tip, ensuring reliability in harsh industrial environments.

It is used to connect various 3500 I/O modules, such as the 3500/40M Proximitor Monitor, 3500/42M Proximitor/Seismic Monitor, and 3500/45 Position Monitor, to their corresponding external termination blocks (e.g., 3500/25 Keyphasor I/O, 3500/40 External Termination Block) or internal termination I/O modules. Compatibility is dependent on the specific I/O module and termination type being used in the 3500 rack configuration.
Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: Proper installation is critical for system performance. First, ensure all power to the 3500 rack is de-energized before installation. Securely fasten the D-sub connector of the 16710-33 to the rear of the designated I/O module using the integrated jackscrews. Route the cable through designated cable trays, avoiding sharp bends (maintain a minimum bend radius of 10x the cable diameter), pinch points, and proximity to high-voltage power cables to prevent physical damage and noise induction. Land the pre-stripped conductors of the pigtail end onto the correct terminals of the associated terminal block, following the wiring diagram specific to the monitor and transducer type. Ensure proper strain relief is applied to the cable at both ends. The cable's shield drain wire must be terminated correctly, typically at the rack chassis ground terminal only, to prevent ground loops per Bently Nevada system grounding guidelines.
