• Extended Temperature Capability: Supports ETR options up to 218°C (425°F) for high-heat applications.

• FluidLoc Leak Prevention: Prevents oil and liquid leakage through the cable interior, protecting machine integrity.

• Corrosion-Resistant Connectors: Gold-plated ClickLoc connectors resist corrosion and ensure secure connections in wet environments.

• High Mechanical Strength: Patented CableLoc design provides 330 N (75 lbf) pull strength for durability under stress.

• RFI/EMI Immunity: Reliable operation in fiberglass housings without shielded conduit, meeting CE mark standards.

• Interchangeable Compatibility: Fully interchangeable with other 3300 XL components, simplifying field replacements and reducing downtime.

System Compatibility & Alternatives

• System Compatibility:
  Fully compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors and 3300 XL standard extension cables. It is fully interchangeable with older non-XL 3300 series 5mm and 8mm transducer systems, maintaining backward compatibility compliant with API 670 standards.
• Alternative Model & Differences:
  The corresponding alternative configuration within the metric series is catalog number 330106-05-30-10-02-05.
• The Difference: The 330105-02-12-10-02-05 uses an English standard 3/8-24 UNF-2A thread layout with fixed structural length options (0.2 in unthreaded, 1.2 in case length) and a 7/16-inch hexagonal body size. The 330106 variant uses an M10x1 metric thread structure with customized options (5mm unthreaded, 30mm case length) and a matching M10 hexagonal body profile for metric machines. Neither variant supports flexible stainless steel armor or integrated connector protector options due to their specific reverse-mount mechanical design.

Installation & Troubleshooting FAQ

Q1: What are the torque limits for fastening this reverse mount probe housing?

A: The maximum rated installation torque for this probe case structure is 22.6 N•m (200 in•lbf). For standard plant setups, the recommended tightening torque is 7.5 N•m (66 in•lbf). Tightening beyond the maximum limits will deform the structural body housing and result in thread binding.

Q2: Why are stainless steel armor options unavailable for this specific configuration?

A: The reverse mount design is specifically engineered to be inserted through a protective sleeve or internal bracket channel inside the machine casing. Because the entire length of the cable and body stays protected inside the mounting sleeve matrix, external abrasive forces are avoided. This eliminates the need for bulky stainless steel armor profiles.

Q3: How do I choose between standard silicone tape and a connector protector for this setup?

A: This specific unarmored probe comes with standard ClickLoc connectors without an installed protector. For field connections inside junction boxes, wrapping with self-fusing silicone tape is ideal. However, do not use silicone tape if the junction point is exposed to turbine oil washdowns, as chemical degradation can compromise electrical insulation.

Q4: My system calibration curve looks distorted after mounting the probe inside a sleeve. What is the cause?

A: This is typically caused by inadequate clearance inside the probe sleeve or mounting bracket tip opening. If the metallic counterbore or housing diameter surrounding the 8mm tip is too narrow, an electromagnetic "Side Effect" occurs. To prevent this signal distortion, ensure the internal counterbore diameter provides a minimum clearance width of 24mm.
