🏭 Built for These Challenges
High-Speed Turbomachinery: Gas turbines spinning at 10,000+ RPM demand sensors that can track shaft motion with microsecond precision. This probe delivers.
Critical Compressor Trains: In LNG facilities and petrochemical plants, unplanned compressor shutdowns cost millions per day. The 3300/05-24-00-01 provides the early warning data that prevents catastrophic failures.
Power Generation Assets: Steam turbine generators, hydro units, and combined-cycle plants rely on this probe for bearing health monitoring and rotor dynamics analysis.
Heavy Industrial Drives: Paper mills, steel rolling mills, and mining operations use these probes to monitor gearboxes, motors, and drive trains under extreme loads.
⚡ Performance That Matters
🎯 Sub-Micron Resolution: Detect bearing wear and rotor cracks before they become visible problems
🎯 Wide Frequency Range: Capture both slow-roll data and high-frequency bearing defects in one measurement
🎯 Temperature Stable: Maintains calibration accuracy across 130°C temperature swings
🎯 EMI Resistant: Advanced shielding rejects interference from VFDs, motors, and welding equipment
🎯 Long Service Life: Stainless steel construction survives years of vibration, thermal cycling, and contamination
🔗 System Compatibility
This probe works seamlessly with all Bently Nevada 3300 XL proximitor models. The 5-meter cable length provides installation flexibility for most machinery configurations—long enough to route around obstacles, short enough to minimize signal degradation.
Need more reach? Add Bently Nevada extension cables to achieve custom installation distances while maintaining measurement accuracy. The system supports daisy-chaining up to manufacturer-specified maximum cable lengths.
📐 Installation Considerations
The 5/8-18 UNC thread is the North American standard for proximity probe mounting. It fits directly into most industrial probe holders, mounting brackets, and machine casings without adapters. The 8mm probe diameter provides the optimal balance between sensitivity and ruggedness for general-purpose machinery monitoring.
Each probe includes factory calibration data showing the exact voltage-to-distance relationship for your specific unit. This individual calibration ensures measurement accuracy regardless of manufacturing tolerances.
✅ Quality Documentation
Ships with complete technical package including individual calibration certificate (NIST traceable), installation instructions, dimensional drawings, and material certifications. All documentation supports ISO 9001 quality management requirements and regulatory compliance audits.
Condition: Brand new, factory-sealed with full manufacturer warranty and global technical support.
