Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8mm Probe 330103-00-05-10-01-00
Description
Overview
The Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-10-01-00 is a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe, also called a 3300 XL 8mm eddy current probe, with a metric M10 x 1 thread. It is the sensing element of the 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer system, which consists of a probe, an extension cable and a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor. Together they produce an output voltage proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the shaft. The system is used for radial vibration and axial position measurement on fluid-film bearing machines, and for Keyphasor and speed measurement.
The model 330103 is the M10 x 1 probe without armour. According to Bently Nevada datasheet 141194, the options of this part number are:
- 00: 0 mm unthreaded length
- 05: 50 mm overall case length
- 10: 1.0 m total length
- 01: miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with connector protector, standard cable
- 00: no agency approval
Key Features
- 3300 XL 8 mm eddy-current probe with M10 x 1 metric thread, without armour
- Designed to meet API 670 requirements for mechanical configuration, linear range, accuracy and temperature stability
- Moulded PPS probe tip, and a CableLoc cable attachment rated at 330 N pull strength
- ClickLoc connector with connector protector for a secure, sealed connection to the extension cable
- Interchangeable with non-XL 3300 series 8 mm components
- Seals differential pressure between the probe tip and case with a Viton O-ring

Applications
- Radial vibration and axial position measurement on steam and gas turbines, compressors, pumps and generators
- Keyphasor reference and speed measurement
- Machine casings with M10 x 1 metric tapped holes
- Short 1 m system length installations, where the probe connects directly to a 1 m Proximitor sensor
A 1 m probe is used with a 1 m system Proximitor (330180-1X-XX) and needs no extension cable. The probe length must match the system length of the Proximitor.
Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-10-01-00 Ordering Code and Options
The 330103 base number identifies a 3300 XL 8 mm probe with an M10 × 1 thread and no armour; the armoured equivalent is 330104. The five option fields are AA-BB-CC-DD-EE. AA is the unthreaded length in steps of 10 mm (00 = fully threaded case). BB is the overall case length in steps of 10 mm, from 20 mm to 250 mm, so 05 is a 50 mm case.
CC is the total length including the integral cable. Metric probes are offered in 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 5.0 and 9.0 m; 10 means 1.0 m. DD selects connector and cable: 01 is a ClickLoc connector with a factory-fitted connector protector on standard cable, 02 is the same without the protector, and 11 or 12 are the FluidLoc cable versions that stop oil travelling through the cable interior. EE is the approval option: 00 none, 05 CSA, ATEX and IECEx.
The probe is not pressure tested before shipment, and the datasheet warns that exposure below -34 °C may shorten the life of the Viton O-ring pressure seal.
Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-10-01-00 System Compatibility
A complete loop needs a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor whose system length equals the probe length plus any extension cable. A 1.0 m probe can be connected straight to a 1.0 m Proximitor (330180-10, -11 or -12) with no extension cable, or combined with a 330130 extension cable of 4.0 m for a 5.0 m system or 8.0 m for a 9.0 m system. Components are interchangeable without bench calibration; mixing in non-XL 3300 parts limits performance to the non-XL specification.

About brand
Since 1961 Bently Nevada, of Minden, Nevada, USA, has been closely tied to two things: the eddy current proximity probe and the rack-based machinery protection system. The 3500 rack is found on turbines and compressors in most large process plants.
Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier of Bently Nevada 3500 monitor modules, interface and communication modules, proximity probes, accelerometers and velocity transducers for operators in Oman and the GCC, with every item matched to the full part number.
Bently Nevada 3500 modules and transducers
The listed 3500 modules include the 3500/20 Rack Interface Module, the 3500/50M Tachometer, the 3500/61 Temperature and 3500/62 Process Variable monitors, the 3500/64M Dynamic Pressure monitor, the 3500/44M for aeroderivative gas turbines and the 3500/46M Hydro monitor. Reciprocating compressor monitoring is covered by the 3500/70M, 3500/72M and 3500/77M. The 3500/92 Communication Gateway and 3500/94M display link the rack to the control system. Transducers include the 3300 XL proximity probe system, the 330400 accelerometer and the 190501 Velomitor CT velocity transducer. The manufacturer's newer platform, Orbit 60, is offered as the modernization path for 3500 racks, and System 1 software handles diagnostics.
Where Bently Nevada vibration monitoring is used
Steam and gas turbines, generators, centrifugal and reciprocating compressors, large pumps, hydro units and cooling tower fans in oil and gas, power generation, petrochemical and mining plants are the usual machines. Measurements include radial vibration, thrust position, speed, phase, differential expansion, bearing temperature, rod position and cylinder pressure.
Ordering Bently Nevada parts: what we need
Send the complete part number with every option field, for example 330103-00-05-10-01-00 for a probe or the 3500 module number with its option dashes, plus the matching I/O module number. For probe systems state probe series, system length and the hazardous area approval. A photo of the label avoids transcription errors, and for rack modules the firmware revision is useful.
