Expert Review – Manager’s Insight

“The 330171 is the workhorse for turbomachinery protection. Its PPS tip withstands oil mist and moisture, while the 304 case resists corrosion. We recommend this version (12-23-10-01-05) because the 1.0 m cable and ClickLoc connector minimize signal loss and simplify installation. Ideal for retrofitting aging Bently Nevada 3300 5mm Proximity Probes systems.”
“For high‑temperature zones above 177°C, consider the 330173 series with extended cable options.”

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between 330171 and 330173?
330171 has a standard 1 m cable and PPS tip; 330173 offers longer cables (up to 9 m) and optional armored versions. Both share the same sensing performance.
Can I use this probe with a 5 mm extension cable?
Yes. The ClickLoc connector mates directly with Bently Nevada 3300 series extension cables (sold separately).
What if my ambient temperature exceeds 177°C?
This probe is rated -35 to +177°C. For higher temps, select the 330173 with high‑temperature options.
How do I choose the correct total length?
Total length (probe + extension) must match the proximitor input. Our 1 m probe works with 5 m or 9 m systems when paired with proper extension.
Is this probe hazardous‑area certified?
Yes, option 05 includes multiple approvals (CSA, ATEX, IECEx) for Zone 2 gas/dust.
