Expert Review – Manager’s Insight
- Why choose this 5mm probe?
- The 1/4-28 UNF thread is ideal for machines with limited mounting space
- ClickLoc connector saves installation time – no tools needed, secure lock
- 0.5m cable length perfect for close-coupled installations with extension cable
- Best suited for:
- Small steam turbines, gearboxes, centrifugal pumps
- Paper machine rolls, fans, and blowers
- Applications requiring high temperature rating (up to 177°C)
- Reliability note: Bently Nevada 3300 series probes are industry standard. The 5mm size offers same performance as 8mm but in tighter spaces.
Compatible Applications
- Vibration monitoring
- Radial vibration on small to medium rotating machinery
- Shaft relative expansion measurement
- Eccentricity and keyphasor reference
- Industries served:
- Power generation, oil & gas, petrochemical
- Pulp & paper, steel, water/wastewater
Model Comparison & Selection Guide
- 330171-00-08-05-02-CN (this model)
- 0.8″ case length, 0.5m cable, ClickLoc, CN approvals
- Best for tight spaces with short cable run to extension
- 330171-00-12-10-01-CN
- 1.2″ case length, 1.0m cable, standard connector
- Choose when longer case or longer cable needed
- 330171-05-63-05-02-CN
- 5.0″ unthreaded length, 6.3″ case, 0.5m cable
- For deep mounting applications with extended unthreaded section
- Selection tip: Match case length to your mounting hole depth. Use 0.5m cable if junction box is nearby. Choose ClickLoc (02) for easiest installation.
Installation Guidelines
- Mounting requirements
- Tap hole: #3 drill or larger for 1/4-28 UNF thread

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What is the difference between 330171 and 330172 series?A: 330171 is 5mm probe with 1/4-28 thread. 330172 is 5mm with metric M8 thread. Choose based on your mounting requirements.
- Q: Can this probe work with 3300 XL extension cables?A: Yes – use Bently Nevada 3300 series extension cables with ClickLoc connectors for easy mating.
- Q: What does “CN” approval mean?A: Country specific approvals for China. Includes hazardous area certifications accepted in China.
- Q: Is the probe tip replaceable?A: No – tip is integral to probe. If damaged, replace entire probe assembly.
- Q: What is the linear range of this 5mm probe?A: Typically 2mm linear range when used with 3300 XL system. Gap at 1.27mm (50 mils) for nominal.
- Q: Can I use this in high vibration areas?A: Yes – tensile strength 222N, stainless steel construction. Ensure proper torque.
- Q: What tools needed for ClickLoc connector?A: None – hand tighten only. Max torque 0.565 N·m (hand tight).
- Q: How does 5mm compare to 8mm probes?A: 5mm fits tighter spaces, same performance. 8mm has longer linear range.
