Description：

The Bently Nevada 330101-00-16-05-02-00 is a high-precision proximity probe used in continuous machine condition monitoring systems for critical rotating equipment. As part of the 3300 XL 8 mm product family, it delivers accurate non-contact measurements of shaft movement, allowing operators to evaluate machine performance without interrupting production.

The probe operates using eddy current measurement technology, detecting changes in the clearance between the probe tip and a conductive shaft surface. Variations in this gap are converted into electrical signals that represent machine movement in real time. This measurement method enables a single probe to monitor both slowly changing shaft position and rapidly changing vibration, making it suitable for machinery operating under varying process conditions.

Frequently asked questions

Q : What does the exact part number "330101-00-16-05-02-00" stand for?

A: It represents a 3300 XL 8mm proximity probe with a 3/8-24 UNF English thread, 0.0" unthreaded length, 1.6" total case length, 0.5-meter total cable length, standard ClickLoc coaxial connector, and standard agency approvals.

Q : What is the linear range of this 8mm probe?

A: The standard linear range is 2.0 mm (80 mils), starting from approximately 0.25 mm (10 mils) to 2.25 mm (90 mils) away from the target material.

Q : What is the scale factor for this probe system?

A: When paired with a matching 3300 XL Proximitor, the standard scale factor is 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil).

Q : What is the typical shelf life of an unused Bently Nevada probe?

A: As long as it is stored in a clean, dry environment within its storage temperature limits (-51 °C to +177 °C), it has an indefinite shelf life.
