Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What is the exact linear range of this probe?Linear range is 2 mm (80 mils), starting at 0.25 mm (10 mils) from target up to 2.3 mm (90 mils). Output approximately -1 to -17 Vdc.
• Can I use this probe with my existing 3300 system?Yes. It is fully compatible with 3300 XL Proximitors and all Bently Nevada monitors that accept 8 mm probe inputs.
• What does the suffix 330103-00-06-05-11-05 mean?330103=M10x1 thread without armor, 00=0 mm unthreaded length, 06=60 mm case length, 05=0.5 m total length, 11=ClickLoc connector with FluidLoc cable, 05=CSA/ATEX/IECEx approvals.
• Is the probe pressure tested before shipment?Factory does not pressure test standard probes. For applications requiring a tested pressure seal, contact our custom design department.
• Which gap voltage should I set for radial vibration?Recommended static gap is -9 Vdc (approximately 1.27 mm / 50 mils) to center the probe in its linear range.
• What if my application requires high temperature up to 218°C?Standard probe handles +177°C. For extended tip temperature +218°C, you need the extended temperature range option; check with our sales team.

Selection & Experience Guide

• For machines with high surface speeds, ensure target material and finish meet Bently Nevada specs to avoid electrical runout.
• If cable length exceeds 0.5 m, order a probe with longer cable or use extension cables with ClickLoc connectors – max system length 305 m.
• In areas with strong electromagnetic interference, always use shielded triad wiring and ground properly.
• When installing in hazardous zones, verify barrier or isolator compatibility per drawing 141092 (ia) or 140979 (nA/ec).
• Need help selecting the correct probe? Contact us with your machine type, thread size, and cable length requirement.
