The Bently Nevada 330104-00-16-05-02-05 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe is a high-reliability eddy-current sensor designed for continuous measurement of shaft vibration, displacement, and position in rotating machinery.
As part of the 3300 XL proximity transducer system, this probe is widely used in turbines, compressors, generators, and heavy industrial equipment where stable and precise non-contact measurement is essential for machinery protection. The “-16” configuration typically represents an extended 160 mm probe body for deeper installation reach, while the “-05” option corresponds to a standard system cable length configuration used in flexible industrial layouts.
This model is engineered for demanding environments where long-term stability, interchangeability, and accurate dynamic monitoring are critical to asset reliability.
