Bently Nevada 330101-15-40-10-02-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe

FAQ

Q1: What are the primary applications of this probe?
A1: It is mainly used for vibration and position monitoring in fluid-film bearing machinery and for Keyphasor phase and speed measurements.

Q2: Does this model comply with API 670 standards?
A2: Yes, it meets API 670 requirements for mechanical configuration, linear range, accuracy, and temperature stability.

Q3: Is individual calibration required for each component?
A3: No. All 3300 XL components are fully interchangeable and do not require matched calibration.

Q4: What is the recommended gap setting for this probe?
A4: The recommended gap is 1.27 mm (50 mils), corresponding to an output of approximately -9 VDC.

Q5: What is the maximum temperature this probe can withstand?
A5: The standard probe endures up to +177°C, while the ETR variant can withstand up to +218°C (probe tip) and +260°C (cable).

Q6: How is connector reliability ensured?
A6: The ClickLoc connectors lock with a finger-tight twist and emit a “click” when properly engaged, requiring no tools.

Q7: Can this model be used with non-XL 3300 components?
A7: Yes, but doing so limits system performance to that of the non-XL components.

Q8: How stable is the probe in high humidity conditions?
A8: It shows less than a 3% change in Average Scale Factor when tested under 93% humidity for up to 56 days.
