The Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-05-12-05 is a 3300 XL 8 mm eddy current proximity probe designed for precise shaft vibration and position measurement in rotating machinery. It is widely deployed in turbines, compressors, pumps, and heavy industrial equipment where continuous condition monitoring is required to maintain operational safety, prevent unplanned downtime, and support predictive maintenance strategies.
As part of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL proximity transducer system, this probe is engineered for high interchangeability, stable long-term signal output, and strong resistance to harsh operating environments such as vibration, high temperature, and industrial contamination.
Technical Specifications
This model follows the structured 3300 XL ordering code system, where each segment defines probe geometry, cable length, and configuration options.
