8 mm probe tip – A mainstream size for medium-to-large machinery, providing robust dynamic signal and dependable gap measurements.
5 m integral cable (code “05”) – Typically used to assemble 5 m systems or mixed-length systems depending on the extension cable chosen.
3300 XL system compatibility – Works with 3300 XL Proximitor sensors and Bently Nevada 3500/3300 monitors for direct shaft vibration and position inputs.
Stable sensitivity – Standard 8 mm system sensitivity is typically 200 mV/mil (≈ 7.87 mV/µm) when used with matching Proximitor and extension cable.
Industrial-grade temperature capability – Probe assembly is designed for harsh environments commonly found on hot-end turbomachinery.
Threaded mounting with locknuts – Simple, repeatable installation; you might notice fewer re-gapping cycles after shutdowns when the mount is done right.
Backwards-fit with installed bases – In many cases, this model drops into existing 3300 XL setups without changing monitors or software.
| Brand / Model | Bently Nevada 330104-05-11-10-02-CN (8 mm proximity probe) |
| HS Code | 903180 (Measuring/monitoring instruments, other) |
| Power Requirements | Supplied via matching 3300 XL Proximitor sensor (–24 Vdc nominal from the monitoring system) |
| Sensitivity (system) | Typically 200 mV/mil (≈ 7.87 mV/µm) with the correct Proximitor and extension cable |
| Linear Range (system) | Typically up to 80 mils (≈ 2.0 mm) for 8 mm systems on steel targets |
| Operating Temperature | Probe: typically –35°C to +177°C; Proximitor (for reference): typically –35°C to +65°C |
| Dimensions & Weight | 8 mm tip diameter; integral cable length 5 m (code “05”). Weight varies with cable routing; contact for exact figure. |
| Signal I/O Types | Eddy-current probe input to Proximitor; gap (DC) and dynamic vibration (AC) outputs from Proximitor to monitor |
| Communication Interfaces | Not applicable (analog transducer system) |
| Installation Method | Threaded probe mount with locknuts; Proximitor typically mounted on panel or DIN rail; gapping via feeler gauges/target |
| Thread / Tip | 8 mm tip; thread per model code. This variant commonly uses a standard threaded sleeve for machine brackets. |
| System Compatibility | 3300 XL Proximitor sensors (e.g., matching 8 mm units) and Bently Nevada 3500/3300 monitoring systems |
You’ll typically see the 330104 used on:
Steam and gas turbines – radial vibration, axial position, and differential expansion points
Compressors and expanders – rotor dynamics and machine protection
Large induction motors and generators – bearing vibration and shaft position trending
Gearboxes and fans – coupling monitoring and early fault detection
Reliability – The 3300 XL family is known for long service life; fewer nuisance alarms when the system is matched correctly.
Compatibility – Seamless fit with installed Bently Nevada racks, which usually cuts commissioning time.
Lifecycle cost – Stable calibration means less frequent rework; spare parts are straightforward to stock across units.
Technical support – Clear selection between probe, extension cable, and Proximitor reduces mix-ups. We can help cross-check your cable lengths and thread options before shipment.
One thing I appreciate is how predictable the gap and dynamic response are when the system uses the correct combination: 330104 probe + matching 3300 XL Proximitor + the right-length 330130 extension cable. A maintenance lead recently shared that swapping to matched 5 m systems eliminated a persistent drift issue on a hot compressor train.
Installation & MaintenanceMounting – Install the probe in a rigid, properly threaded bracket; locknuts should be snug but not over-torqued. Maintain orthogonal orientation to the shaft target.
Gapping – Set the probe-to-target gap per system guidelines (typically mid-range of linear region). Verify gap voltage at the monitor after thermal stabilization.
Cabling – Route cables away from high-voltage conductors and VFD outputs. Avoid tight bends; use protective conduit in high-traffic areas.
Cabinet & ventilation – Mount Proximitor sensors in a clean enclosure with adequate ventilation; follow IP rating and temperature limits.
Safety – Lock out machinery during installation; confirm no contact between probe tip and rotating surfaces.
Routine maintenance – Inspect probe tip cleanliness during outages, confirm gap voltage, and check connectors. Firmware updates are not applicable to the probe, but it’s good practice to keep your monitor firmware current.
