330130-060-13-00 3300 XL 8mm Probe Installation Guide
Product Introduction
The 330130-060-13-00 is a reverse mount probe. It offers a 6-inch case length with a 1-meter flying lead. Additionally, it uses a 3/8-24 UNF threaded case. This design ensures secure mounting in most bearing housings. Furthermore, this model meets API 670 standards for machinery protection.
Core Value
This probe delivers high accuracy for thrust position and radial vibration measurements. Its primary value is system interoperability. It works seamlessly with Bently Nevada 3300 and 3500 monitoring systems. Consequently, it helps prevent unplanned downtime. Moreover, the 330130-060-13-00 provides long-term stability. This reduces the need for frequent recalibration.
Technical Insights
Firstly, the 330130-060-13-00 features a coil and tip assembly. It measures the gap between the probe tip and the shaft. Specifically, the linear range is 2 mm with a scale factor of 7.87 V/mm. Secondly, the operating temperature ranges from -35°C to +120°C. Therefore, it performs reliably in harsh environments. Furthermore, the probe cable includes a connector. This simplifies field wiring to the driver. Meanwhile, the tip material resists wear from shaft runout.
Installation & Maintenance
Proper gap voltage is critical during installation. First, target a voltage between -9.0 Vdc and -11.0 Vdc. Use a micrometer to set the air gap precisely. Also, ensure the shaft surface is free of runout and nicks. Torque the probe mounting nut to the specified value. Over-tightening can damage the threads. Moreover, routinely check the cable connector for corrosion. Clean it with an approved solvent if required.
Buyer's Guide FAQ
1. What systems is the 330130-060-13-00 compatible with?
It is fully compatible with Bently Nevada 3500/3300 racks and monitors.
2. What is the cable length for this model?
The standard cable length is 1 meter. It comes with a flying lead.
3. Can I use this probe with a 5mm driver?
No. You must pair it with a 8mm proximity driver system for accuracy.
4. What is the thread size on this probe?
The thread size is 3/8-24 UNF. This is the standard mounting thread.
5. How do I check if the probe is faulty?
Check the DC gap voltage. A reading outside -9 to -11 Vdc indicates issues.
