Enviromental Strength
-
FluidLoc Cable: Prevents oil and liquid leakage through the cable interior, protecting machine environments.
-
Corrosion-Resistant Connectors: Gold-plated ClickLoc connectors resist corrosion and stay secure without tools.
-
RFI/EMI Immunity: Operates reliably in fiberglass housings without shielded conduit, simplifying installation in harsh electrical environments.
-
CE Mark Compliance: Meets European standards without requiring metallic enclosures, reducing installation complexity.
-
Optional Connector Protectors: Adds an extra layer of environmental sealing for field installations exposed to moisture or debris.
-
Extended Temperature Options: Available with ETR versions rated up to 218°C (probe) and 260°C (cable) for high-heat applications.
System Compatibility & Alternative Models
- System Compatibility: Fully compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors (e.g., 330180) and 3300 XL extension cables. It is completely interchangeable with non-XL 3300 series 5mm and 8mm transducer loops, satisfying mechanical configuration and accuracy criteria compliant with API 670 standards.
- Alternative Model: 330102-00-16-10-11-RU
- Key Differences: The 330101-00-16-10-11-RU is an unarmored model assembly featuring a lightweight FEP jacketed cable, making it optimized for routing through dedicated internal machine conduits. Conversely, the alternative 330102-00-16-10-11-RU integrates a built-in flexible AISI 302 or 304 stainless steel protective armor sleeve over the leading line to insulate the core wire from cutting, crushing, or floor abrasion hazards.
Installation & Troubleshooting FAQ
Q1: What is the recommended field gapping voltage for setting up this 3300 XL 8mm proximity probe?
A: For a standard 3300 XL 8mm proximity transducer system calibrated to AISI 4140 steel, the initial calibration voltage is -10.0 VDC. This target parameter matches the exact physical midpoint of the sensor's 2.0 mm (80 mils) linear operating range. Wire a digital multimeter to your Proximitor OUT and COM terminals, then slowly rotate the probe into its 3/8-24 UNF thread until the multimeter reads -10.0 VDC before locking down the nut.
Q2: What are the strict thread engagement limits when driving this 1.6-inch probe body into a tapped hole?
A: For a standard 3/8-24 UNF thread configuration case, the maximum safe thread engagement depth is limited to 0.563 inches. This boundary follows the standard industry rule of 1.5 times the nominal thread diameter. Driving the housing threads past this limit induces high mechanical friction that will cause thread binding, warp the casing, and void your warranty protection.
Q3: Can I wrap this specific FluidLoc probe-to-cable coaxial connector junction with silicone self-fusing tape?
A: No, using silicone self-fusing tape is strictly prohibited for installations where the cable junction is directly exposed to industrial turbine oil. Turbine oil degrades the silicone material composition over time, causing loop faults. You must instead specify the integrated connector protector boot layer included with your 11 cable option to ensure moisture-tight sealing.
