Product Overview

The Bently Nevada 330908-00-08-10-02-05 belongs to the 3300 NSv Proximity Transducer System, a product family developed for machinery where installation space is limited or shaft diameters are smaller than those accommodated by standard proximity probe systems.

This ordering configuration includes a standard 3/8-24 UNF threaded probe, a 0.8-inch case length, a 1.0-meter integral cable, a miniature ClickLoc connector, and the Multiple Approvals option. It is commonly selected for compressor, turbine, pump, and gearbox monitoring systems that require dependable shaft vibration and position measurement.

Its compact construction makes installation easier in restricted locations while maintaining compatibility with the complete 3300 NSv monitoring system.

Technical FAQs

1. What is the primary function of the 330908-00-08-10-02-05?

It is used to monitor shaft vibration and shaft position on rotating machinery as part of a proximity transducer system.

2. Which machines commonly use this probe?

Typical applications include centrifugal compressors, turbines, pumps, motors, gearboxes, and other rotating equipment.

3. What sensing principle does this probe use?

The probe operates using eddy current technology to detect changes between the probe tip and the conductive target surface without physical contact.

4. Is this probe suitable for confined installation spaces?

Yes. The 3300 NSv Series was developed for applications where standard proximity probes cannot be installed because of limited mounting space or small shaft diameters.

5. What cable configuration is supplied with this model?

The 10 ordering option specifies a 1.0 m (3.3 ft) integral cable.

6. What connector configuration does this model use?

The 02 option identifies a miniature ClickLoc connector with a standard cable configuration.

7. Which monitoring system is compatible with this probe?

The probe is intended for use with compatible 3300 NSv extension cables and Proximitor Sensors within the 3300 NSv Proximity Transducer System.

8. Can this probe be used for shaft position measurement?

Yes. Depending on the monitoring configuration, it can be applied to shaft position, radial vibration, and phase reference measurements.

9. What should be checked before replacing an existing probe?

Verify the thread type, case length, cable length, connector option, approval option, and compatibility with the installed extension cable and Proximitor Sensor.
