Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330171-00-16-90-01-05 is a 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe designed for non‑contact displacement, vibration, and position measurement of rotating machinery shafts. It is part of the high‑performance 3300 XL series, offering superior linear range, temperature stability, and corrosion resistance. This model features a standard 8 mm probe tip, a 16‑thread‑inch casing length, a 9.0 meter coaxial cable, and a Miniature Coaxial (Mini‑Type) connector with industrial approvals. It is commonly paired with a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor (e.g., 330180 series) to form a complete measurement system.

Application Scenarios
Radial Vibration Monitoring – Installed on steam turbines, gas turbines, compressors, and large pumps to measure shaft relative vibration, enabling early detection of unbalance, misalignment, or bearing wear.
Axial (Thrust) Position Measurement – Used to monitor rotor axial displacement, preventing thrust bearing damage and rotor‑stator rub.
Eccentricity and Shaft Expansion – Deployed on high‑speed rotating equipment to track shaft bow during startup and thermal growth.
Keyphasor / Speed Reference – Provides a once‑per‑revolution signal for phase reference and speed measurement, critical for advanced diagnostic systems like Bently Nevada 3500.
Hazardous Area Applications – With approval option 05, the probe can be installed in environments requiring explosion protection (e.g., refineries, chemical plants, offshore platforms).
