The 330101-00-60-05-02-00 is a Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8mm proximity probe featuring a standard 3/8-24 UNF thread, an extended 6.0-inch overall case length, and an ultra-short 0.5-meter leading cable. Fully compliant with API 670 standards, this unit works seamlessly with 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors to deliver highly precise vibration tracking and stable industrial network communication.
Specifications
Unthreaded Length Option：0.0 in
Overall Case Length Option：6.0 in
Total Length Option：0.5 meter (1.6 feet)
Connector and Cable-Type Option：Miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector, standard cable
Agency Approval Option：Not required
Application
- Steam and gas turbines: Enables continuous shaft vibration monitoring.
- Compressors: Detects imbalance and mechanical looseness early.
- Electric motors: Provides precise displacement feedback for protection systems.
- Oil & gas equipment: Operates reliably under high temperature and harsh conditions.
- Predictive maintenance systems: Supports condition-based monitoring to reduce downtime and extend equipment life.
System Compatibility & Alternative Models
- System Compatibility: Fully compatible with the Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor and standard 3300 XL extension cables. It features complete physical and electrical interchangeability with standard non-XL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm components.
- Alternative Model (For Severe Physical Friction or Impacts): 330102-00-60-05-02-00 Armored Proximity Probe.
- Difference: The 330101-00-60-05-02-00 relies on an unarmored 75Ω triaxial FEP cable jacket. The 330102 alternative model adds a flexible stainless steel armor jacket over the lead cable to protect against physical abuse, mechanical cuts, or sharp flying debris inside machinery housings.
- Alternative Model (For Moisture and Leak Prevention): 330101-00-60-05-12-00 FluidLoc Proximity Probe.
- Difference: The configured model uses a standard FEP insulated probe cable. The alternative "-12" option incorporates a patented FluidLoc cable design that physically prevents turbine oil and other process liquids from leaking out of the machine housing through the interior of the cable.

Installation & Troubleshooting FAQ
Q1: What is the correct initial calibration voltage when setting up this proximity probe?
A: For standard radial vibration tracking, the correct recommended initial gap setting corresponds to -9 VDC (approximately 1.27 mm or 50 mils from the target area). This voltage puts the probe near the physical center of its 2.0 mm (80 mils) total linear range.
Q2: What physical thread engagement restrictions should be monitored during installation?
A: For a standard 3/8-24 UNF thread profile, the maximum length of structural thread engagement inside the bracket or machinery casing is 0.563 inches. Exceeding this industry standard limit assumption may trigger severe mechanical binding or physical stripping during sensor rotation.
Q3: Can I couple this 0.5-meter probe directly to a 9-meter Proximitor sensor without an extension cable?
A: No. transudcer system lengths must be perfectly matched to the calibration of the Proximitor sensor. Because this probe has a 0.5-meter leading length, it must be paired with a matching 8.5-meter extension cable (such as 330130-085) to reach the required 9.0-meter total system length, otherwise severe scale factor errors will occur.
