The 330105-02-12-10-02-00 reverse mount probe is a Bently Nevada eddy current sensor featuring an unthreaded length of 5.0mm, a 30mm case length, and a 3/8-24 UNF thread pattern. Fully compatible with external probe housings, this unit works seamlessly with 3300 XL Proximitor sensors to deliver rigid mechanical protection and stable non-contact shaft vibration telemetry in heavy-duty machinery housings.
Features and benefits
The Bently Nevada 330105-02-12-10-02-00 proximity probe is part of the advanced 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer system, designed for precise vibration and position monitoring on rotating machinery. It provides stable output signals proportional to shaft displacement and supports both static and dynamic measurements. Compliant with API 670 standards, the probe ensures excellent accuracy, temperature stability, and reliability. Its interchangeable design allows easy integration with compatible probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors.
Specific Application
- Radial vibration and axial position measurements inside protective externally mounted proximity probe housings (such as 21000, 24701, or 31000 series).
- Retrofit or replacement sensor installations on fluid-film bearing machines with standard English mounting hardware configurations.
- Shaft displacement monitoring where space layout restrictions necessitate a reverse-mount wiring path out through a rigid protective sleeve.
System Compatibility and Alternative Models
- System Compatibility: Connects directly to a 3300 XL standard 4.0-meter extension cable (such as 330130-040) to match a 5.0-meter Proximitor Sensor (such as 330180-50), or can be paired with an 8.0-meter cable for a 9.0-meter system configuration. It features complete physical and electrical interchangeability with older, non-XL 3300 series 5mm and 8mm transducer systems.
- Alternative Model: 330106-05-30-10-02-00 Metric Reverse Mount Proximity Probe.
- Key Differences:
Threading Specification: The 330105 model uses English 3/8-24 UNF threads with a 7/16-inch hexagonal nut profile, whereas the 330106 utilizes metric M10 x 1 threads with an 10mm hexagonal casing structure.
Mechanical Length Increments: The 330105 features a standardized unthreaded length of 5.0mm (0.20 in) and a case length of 30mm (1.2 in), while the 330106 metric alternative layout follows a 5.0mm unthreaded length paired with a 30mm metric envelope structure.
