Bently Nevada 3300 XL 11mm Proximity Probe 330707-00-10-90-12-00
Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330707-00-10-90-12-00 is a high-performance eddy current sensor. It belongs to the industry-standard 3300 XL series, which is widely used for machinery protection. This non-contact probe accurately measures shaft vibration, position, and eccentricity. Consequently, it is a critical component for safeguarding turbines, compressors, and other high-value rotating equipment. Furthermore, the model's specific configuration ensures it meets various installation needs. Its robust construction and advanced materials guarantee long-term reliability. The probe delivers a stable output signal. This signal is directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the target surface.
Technical Specifications
The model number 330707-00-10-90-12-00 defines its precise configuration. The base type "330707" signifies a 3300 XL 11 mm Probe. This probe features a 5/8-18 UNF thread and comes without armor. The "00" option specifies an unthreaded length of 0 inches. The "10" denotes an overall case length of 1.0 inch. The "90" option indicates a total length of 9.0 meters, which equals 29.5 feet. The connector and cable option "12" includes a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector and a FluidLoc cable. Finally, the "00" agency approval indicates that no specific agency approval is required for this configuration.
Moreover, the sensor's materials are engineered for performance and durability. The probe tip is made of Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). The case is constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel (SST). The cable is a 75 Ω triaxial type with fluoroethylene propylene (FEP) insulation. The DC resistance between the center and outer conductors is 8.5 ± 1.1 ohms. This consistency ensures reliable signal transmission. For installation, the probe case thread is 5/8-18. The maximum length of thread engagement is 0.938 inches.
Environmental and Mechanical Parameters
The 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Probe performs reliably across a broad spectrum of environmental conditions. Its operating and storage temperature range is from -51°C to +177°C (-60°F to +351°F). However, please be aware that exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (30°F) may lead to premature failure of the pressure seal. This seal, designed to handle differential pressure, incorporates a Viton O-ring. For correct installation, the recommended torque for the probe case is 15.2 N•m (133 in•lb). The maximum permissible torque is 45.2 N•m (400 in•lb). The connector-to-connector torque should be finger tight, with a maximum of 0.565 N•m (5 in•lb). Also, the cable has a minimum bend radius of 25.4 mm (1.0 in).
Installation Guide
Correct installation is essential to achieve accurate measurements and ensure the sensor's longevity. Therefore, please follow these steps. First, inspect the mounting hole to ensure it has a 5/8-18 UNF thread and is clean. Second, examine the probe tip for any signs of damage. Next, gently thread the Bently Nevada 330707-00-10-90-12-00 into the mounting hole. Be careful to avoid cross-threading. Use a torque wrench to tighten the probe to the recommended 15.2 N•m. Overtightening can cause significant damage. After that, connect the probe's ClickLoc connector to the extension cable. Secure this connection by hand until it is finger tight. Finally, connect the system to the driver and power it on. Subsequently, set the proper air gap according to your specific application requirements. Always adhere to all relevant safety protocols.
