330104-00-25-10-02-05 Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8mm Armored Probe for Rotating Machinery

The Bently Nevada 330104-00-25-10-02-05 probe is an M10x1 3300 XL 8mm proximity probe with stainless steel armor, mainly used in API 670 compliant systems and rotating machinery protection.

The “-00-25” means 0 mm unthreaded length and 250 mm case length, so the body is basically fully threaded.

The “-10-02-05” defines a 1.0 m cable, ClickLoc connector, and intrinsically safe / hazardous area probe configuration. Common in critical asset protection setups.

The Bently Nevada 330104-00-25-10-02-05 armored probe is normally delivered in a static-shielded, factory-sealed package, with serial number and basic production traceability.

Inside the box you’ll usually find a factory calibration report, and depending on procurement or audit needs, documents like Certificate of Conformance (CoC) or Certificate of Origin (CoO) can also be supplied.

Key point is the probe-to-target gap and side clearance. On site, engineers adjust it using a probe calibrator or multimeter during setup.

If the counterbore / side wall clearance is too tight, you may get cross-talk interference, especially in radial vibration monitoring or Keyphasor / shaft speed sensor applications.

The armored cable should be fixed, but not over-clamped, to keep the 80 mil linear range output stable.

Yes, mechanically it can be replaced while the Bently Nevada 3500 rack module is running. However, unplugging the ClickLoc connector will immediately trigger a “NOT OK” channel status on 3500/40M or 3500/42M monitors.

So the channel should be bypassed in the configuration software first, otherwise it may risk a false ESD event in tightly controlled systems.
