The Bently Nevada 330195-02-12-05-00 is a 3300 XL 8mm reverse mount proximity probe with 3/8-24 UNF threads and a 0.5m cable. It provides high-precision non-contact vibration monitoring.
The Bently Nevada 330195-02-12-05-00 serves as a specialized 3300 XL series reverse mount proximity sensor. This eddy current probe measures shaft vibration and axial position on critical industrial assets. Specifically, the reverse mount design allows for sensor installation from the internal side of the machinery housing. It translates mechanical movement into accurate electrical signals for protection systems. Consequently, this probe remains a cornerstone for monitoring high-value rotating equipment in demanding sectors.
The probe features a 3300 XL 8mm tip constructed from high-performance polyphenylene sulfide. This material offers exceptional resistance to chemical corrosion and fluid absorption. Furthermore, the stainless steel body protects the sensor from extreme vibration and mechanical shock. The ClickLoc connector system provides a secure, moisture-resistant link to extension cables. These design elements ensure the probe maintains its ±1% measurement accuracy in high-temperature zones. Therefore, it delivers reliable data despite harsh industrial conditions.
Engineers typically deploy this reverse mount probe in tight machinery spaces with limited external access. It excels at monitoring centrifugal compressors, steam turbines, and large electric motors. Additionally, the system provides vital Keyphasor signals for machine speed and phase reference. It integrates seamlessly with the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. By detecting early signs of imbalance or misalignment, the sensor prevents catastrophic mechanical failure. This proactive approach significantly reduces the risk of unplanned plant outages.
The 330195-02-12-05-00 offers full interchangeability with standard 3300 XL proximitors and extension cables. This feature simplifies spare parts inventory and reduces replacement time during turnarounds. Moreover, the reverse mount configuration facilitates precise gap adjustment from the internal housing. This setup minimizes the risk of probe tip damage during machine startup cycles. Ultimately, this sensor provides a cost-effective solution for long-term asset health monitoring and predictive maintenance.
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.

The 330703-00-100-10-11-CN proximity probe is engineered for high reliability in demanding industrial applications, particularly within Oil & Gas and Power Generation sectors. Its 11 mm tip provides a larger linear measurement range and is well-suited for monitoring large shaft diameters or applications requiring a greater standoff distance. The probe's construction ensures operational integrity across a wide temperature range, with the probe tip rated for -51 °C to +177 °C (-60 °F to +351 °F). The 3300 XL system design provides enhanced immunity to radio frequency interference (RFI/EMI), minimizing the risk of signal corruption from nearby motors, generators, or radio sources. The gold-plated ClickLoc™ connector ensures a secure, corrosion-resistant connection that prevents intermittent signals caused by vibration. When installed and maintained according to manufacturer specifications, the system demonstrates high Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) and is a critical component for machinery protection systems (MPS) and condition monitoring programs, compliant with standards such as API 670.
Q: What systems is the 330703-00-100-10-11-CN compatible with?
A: The 330703-00-100-10-11-CN probe must be used as part of a complete Bently Nevada 3300 XL 11 mm Transducer System. This requires a matching 3300 XL 11 mm Proximitor Sensor (e.g., part number 330780) and a 3300 XL 11 mm extension cable. It is not interchangeable with components from 5 mm or 8 mm transducer systems, as the scale factor and linear range are different. The complete transducer system provides a voltage output compatible with Bently Nevada monitoring systems, including the 3500 and 3300 series, as well as third-party PLCs, DCS, and data acquisition systems designed to accept a 3-wire, -24 Vdc powered eddy current probe input.
Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: Proper installation is critical for accurate measurements. The probe must be mounted perpendicular to the observed shaft surface using a rigid bracket. The target area on the shaft must be smooth (typically 0.4 to 0.8 µm / 16 to 32 µin Ra), free of chrome or other non-conductive plating, and clear of any residual magnetism or electrical runout. The probe must be gapped correctly by adjusting its distance to the shaft until the Proximitor Sensor output voltage is at the center of the linear range, typically -10.0 Vdc. The probe case locknut should be torqued to the specified value to prevent loosening. The integral cable and any extension cable should be secured to avoid strain on the connectors and routed away from high-voltage power cables to minimize interference.
