Enviromental Strength
-
No Bench Calibration: Fully interchangeable components eliminate the need for matching or bench calibration.
-
Integrated Isolation: Mounting base provides built-in electrical isolation, removing separate isolator plates.
-
Simplified Wiring: SpringLoc terminal strips enable fast field connections without screw-type clamps.
-
Finger-Tight Security: ClickLoc connectors require no tools and lock positively with an audible click.
High Pull Strength: TiLoc molding and CableLoc design deliver robust probe tip and cable retention.
CE Mark Compliance: Meets European CE mark requirements without special shielded conduit or metallic housings.
System Compatibility & Alternatives
- System Compatibility:
Fully compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors (such as 330180) and 3300 XL standard extension cables. It delivers complete electrical and physical interchangeability with non-XL 3300 series metric 5mm and 8mm transducer loop elements under API 670 guidelines. - Alternative Model & Differences:
The corresponding direct alternative configuration with integrated defense shielding is catalog number 330104-00-07-10-02-00. - The Difference: The 330103-00-07-10-02-00 features a standard unarmored triaxial cable jacketed in smooth fluoroethylene propylene (FEP), which makes it lighter and ideal for deployment within enclosed conduits or clean raceways. The 330104 alternative wraps the core cable in flexible AISI 302/304 stainless steel armor with an outer FEP protective sleeve, providing much higher mechanical protection against physical cutting, crushing, or abrasion on open machinery.

Installation & Troubleshooting FAQ
Q1: What are the torque limits and tool profiles for fastening this M10x1 probe case?
A: The maximum rated installation torque for the metric M10x1 forward-mounted probe case is 33.9 N•m (300 in•lbf), and the recommended nominal field gapping torque is 11.2 N•m (100 in•lbf). If the machine assembly allows engagement only into the first three threads of the housing hole, the safety limit drops to a maximum of 22.6 N•m (200 in•lbf). The probe casing features 8mm wrench flats, and it is supplied standard with an M10 locknut containing safety wire holes.
Q2: What do the '00' and '07' option suffixes signify in the hardware part number breakdown?
A: The '00' unthreaded length option designates that the probe barrel is fully threaded over its entire body length (0 mm unthreaded portion). The '07' option specifies an overall structural case length of exactly 70 mm. Under metric engineering layout rules, the selected unthreaded option must always be at least 20 mm less than the overall case length parameter to maintain mechanical structural integrity.
Q3: How do I handle connecting the 1.0-meter probe cable to the extension cable securely without tools?
A: The system uses gold-plated brass ClickLoc miniature coaxial connectors that lock mechanically without specialized tool sets. Align the male and female terminal interfaces, then push and rotate them together firmly using finger force only until you perceive a distinct tactile and audible "click." To ensure long-term environmental isolation against turbine oil washdowns, wrap the locked junction with self-fusing waterproof rubber tape rather than generic protectors.
Q4: Why is my monitoring instrument reading erratic voltage swings when the shaft is turning slowly?
A: This behavior typically points to mechanical or electrical runout along the targeted area of the shaft track rather than a sensor defect. Eddy current probes are highly responsive to structural imperfections like scratches, spot magnetism, or heat-treatment variations on the target material, misreading them as dynamic vibration. Ensure the target surface is precision-ground and demagnetized to API 670 rules, or use monitor software runout compensation.
