Product Overview
The Bently Nevada 330194-05-13-10-05 is a high-performance proximity probe from the 3300 XL series, designed for precise non-contact vibration and position measurement in rotating machinery. This model features a robust 8 mm PPS tip, M10x1 thread, and optional armor for harsh environments. Patented TipLoc molding and CableLoc technology provide superior mechanical bond and 330 N (75 lbf) pull strength, significantly reducing the risk of probe failure due to cable stress or tip separation. Ideal for upgrading older probes, the 330194-05-13-10-05 offers improved durability and reliability.

Industry Applications
The Bently Nevada 330194-05-13-10-05 is essential for vibration and position monitoring in turbines, compressors, pumps, and fans. Its enhanced cable strength and tip bonding reduce premature failure in high-vibration environments. In a typical upgrade scenario, replacing older probes with this model improves measurement stability and extends maintenance intervals, delivering long-term ROI.
Installation & Setup Guidance
For proper installation, ensure the probe thread engages the housing by no more than 15 mm. Apply torque to the connector not exceeding 0.565 N·m. Use the supplied armor when routing cables through abrasive areas. One-meter systems (like 330194-05-13-10-05) do not require an extension cable. For oil-leak prevention, order the optional FluidLoc cable. Always verify gap settings with a Proximitor sensor per the calibration procedure.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When ordering, confirm the unthreaded length and overall case length match your mechanical clearance. Verify agency approvals (CSA, ATEX, IECEx) suit your hazardous area classification.
