Brief Product Description

Bently Nevada 330103-00-06-10-02-00 is a 3300 XL 8mm eddy current proximity probe, part of Bently 3300 series non-contact transducer system. This version has 6mm unthreaded tip length and 1m integral cable, 3/8-24 thread mounting. It must be matched with extension cable and 3500 monitor module to measure radial shaft vibration, axial thrust displacement and shaft position for rotating machinery. Based on eddy current principle, it performs non-contact measurement without touching the rotating metal shaft. Stainless steel sealed probe construction supports continuous operation under harsh conditions with high temperature, oil mist and vibration. Fully tested surplus and refurbished Bently 330103-00-06-10-02-00 probes are available for legacy machinery monitoring system maintenance, probe replacement and plant equipment retrofit projects.

Core Product Functions

• 8mm eddy current proximity probe for non-contact gap, vibration and displacement measurement
• Real-time monitoring of rotating shaft radial vibration, axial thrust position and rotor eccentricity
• Eddy current sensing principle for conductive metal target surface measurement
• Works together with matched extension cable and 3500 monitor to convert gap to analog voltage signal

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

• Q: Unstable vibration readings or signal dropout after installing 330103-00-06-10-02-00?
  A: Verify probe installation gap, check cable and connector integrity, inspect target material and surface finish, check shielding grounding and confirm 3500 monitor configuration.
• Q: Does Bently 330103-00-06-10-02-00 support hot-swap replacement?
  A: Hot swap is not permitted. Shut down rotating equipment and perform lockout-tagout before replacement to avoid mechanical damage and safety hazards.
• Q: What series is 330103-00-06-10-02-00?
  A: It belongs to Bently Nevada 3300XL 8mm eddy current proximity probe series.
• Q: What is the difference between this model and 330103-00-04-10-02-00?
  A: Different unthreaded tip length, this one is 6mm tip while the other is 4mm tip, cable length and connector style are the same.
• Q: Is Bently 330103-00-06-10-02-00 available for new monitoring projects?
  A: This legacy 3300XL proximity probe is end-of-life for new installations. Only fully tested surplus and refurbished units are supplied for existing machinery monitoring system maintenance and retrofits.
