3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe for Specialized Machinery Monitoring

The Bently Nevada 330101-XX-XX-10-02-05 MOD:147773-00-12 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is a factory-modified configuration of the proven 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System, designed for specialized machinery protection applications where standard catalog configurations may not satisfy installation or customer-specific requirements. Built on Bently Nevada's industry-leading eddy-current sensing technology, this probe provides accurate, non-contact measurement of shaft vibration, shaft position, and radial displacement for critical rotating equipment. The MOD:147773-00-12 designation identifies a factory-authorized modification that customizes the probe configuration while maintaining compatibility with the 3300 XL transducer platform.

Unlike standard ordering codes, the "XX-XX" fields indicate that the probe's unthreaded length and overall case length are defined by the factory modification rather than a standard catalog option. This allows the probe to meet unique installation requirements without compromising measurement performance or system interchangeability. The probe remains compatible with matching 3300 XL Proximitor Sensors and extension cables when configured according to the original factory specification.

Technical Specifications

Technical FAQs

1. What does the "XX-XX" designation mean?

It indicates that the unthreaded length and overall case length are factory-customized rather than standard catalog dimensions. These values are defined by the MOD:147773-00-12 modification.

2. What is MOD:147773-00-12?

It is a factory modification number identifying a customized version of the standard 330101 proximity probe. The modification defines specific mechanical or configuration changes requested for a particular application.

3. What cable length does this model include?

The ordering code specifies a 1.0-meter (3.3-foot) integrated standard cable.

4. Which connector does this probe use?

It is equipped with a Miniature ClickLoc™ coaxial connector, providing secure electrical connections and simplified installation.

5. What does Option 05 indicate?

Option 05 specifies CSA, ATEX, and IECEx hazardous-area approvals, allowing installation in qualified hazardous environments.

6. Is this probe interchangeable with standard 3300 XL components?

Yes. When used with the corresponding factory-defined configuration, it remains compatible with the appropriate 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor and extension cable.

7. What parameters can this probe monitor?

It measures shaft vibration, shaft displacement, shaft position, eccentricity, and other dynamic shaft movement characteristics.

8. Which industries commonly use this probe?

It is widely used in power generation, oil and gas, petrochemical processing, mining, pulp and paper, and other heavy industrial sectors.

9. Why choose a factory-modified probe?

Factory modifications provide a solution when standard catalog configurations do not match the mechanical or installation requirements of a specific machine.

10. Is this probe suitable for continuous online monitoring?

Yes. It is engineered for permanent installation in machinery protection and condition monitoring systems operating continuously.
