SKU: 330901-00-10-10-02-00
Bently Nevada 330901-00-10-10-02-00 3300 NSv Proximity Probe
The Bently Nevada 330901-00-10-10-02-00 is a 3300 NSv proximity probe with a 5mm tip. It provides precise displacement measurements in confined industrial spaces.
The Bently Nevada 330901-00-10-10-02-00 belongs to the 3300 NSv (Non-Standard viton) transducer line. This proximity probe measures shaft vibration and position in tight spaces. It excels where standard probes cannot fit due to physical constraints. Specifically, the NSv system handles small shaft diameters or flat surfaces effectively. This probe identifies potential mechanical issues before they lead to failure. It serves as a vital tool for centrifugal and axial compressors.

Performance and Signal Stability
The 3300 NSv probe delivers a linear output across its measurement range. It converts mechanical displacement into a proportional voltage signal for monitoring. Furthermore, the 330901-00-10-10-02-00 maintains high accuracy despite temperature fluctuations. This stability ensures reliable data for machinery protection systems. The probe tip features polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) for superior chemical resistance. Consequently, the sensor survives in oil-saturated industrial environments.
Optimized for Narrow Clearance
This specific probe model utilizes a small 5mm tip diameter. This design allows for installation in very narrow target areas. Moreover, the NSv series works with targets smaller than standard 8mm probes. It provides excellent side-view immunity to prevent false readings from walls. The miniature ClickLoc connector ensures a secure electrical path. This mechanism resists loosening caused by high-frequency vibration.
Industrial Application and Reliability
Maintenance teams integrate these probes into standard Bently Nevada monitoring racks. They monitor radial vibration, axial position, and phase reference. This data helps operators assess the health of fluid-film bearings. Additionally, the rugged armored cable option protects against mechanical crushing. The 330901-00-10-10-02-00 meets the strict requirements of API 670 standards. This compliance guarantees long-term performance in mission-critical applications.

31000-16-10-15-030-03-02 | Bently Nevada | 31000 Proximity Probe Housing
Technical Overview
The Bently Nevada 31000-16-10-15-030-03-02 is a specialized proximity probe housing designed to physically protect a proximity probe and its integral cable within harsh industrial environments. Its primary function is to provide a secure, environmentally sealed mounting point on rotating machinery for acquiring critical vibration and position data. The housing is constructed from 304 Stainless Steel, offering robust protection against physical impact and corrosion. This specific configuration, 31000-16-10-15-030-03-02, features a 3/4-14 NPT external mounting thread for direct installation into a machine case. Internally, it accommodates a Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm or 3300 5 mm probe, which is positioned by a 1.0-inch stinger (probe sleeve). The housing facilitates the signal path from the probe tip to the Bently Nevada 3500 Monitoring System. The probe, connected via an extension cable to a Proximitor Sensor, generates a high-frequency RF signal. The resulting eddy current field is used to measure the distance to the observed conductive target. The Proximitor Sensor conditions this signal into a calibrated DC voltage proportional to the gap, which is then transmitted to a 3500/42M Proximitor/Seismic Monitor module for analysis, alarming, and machinery protection.

Operational Capabilities
In Oil & Gas applications, the 31000-16-10-15-030-03-02 housing provides essential protection for transducers monitoring centrifugal and reciprocating compressors, pumps, and gearboxes. Its 304 Stainless Steel construction and Viton seals ensure long-term integrity in environments containing corrosive elements such as H2S and hydrocarbons, a critical requirement for meeting API 670 standards for machinery protection systems. In Power Generation, this housing is extensively used on steam and gas turbines, exciters, and boiler feed pumps. It maintains measurement accuracy and reliability under conditions of high temperature and vibration, which is fundamental for monitoring shaft radial vibration, axial thrust position, and differential expansion. The passive mechanical design results in a high Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), contributing to overall plant availability. When properly installed, the housing assembly provides an environmental rating equivalent to NEMA 4X and IP65, preventing ingress of dust, moisture, and process contaminants that could otherwise compromise signal integrity
