Product Overview
When precision vibration monitoring is critical for rotating machinery, the Bently Nevada 330708-00-24-50-12-00 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Probe delivers reliable performance. Part of the trusted 3300 XL series, this probe is designed to work seamlessly with the five‑meter Proximitor sensor, ensuring accurate displacement measurements in turbines, compressors, and pumps. The 330708-00-24-50-12-00 features a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector with FluidLoc cable for secure, easy installation in demanding industrial environments.
Key Features & Compatibility
The 330708-00-24-50-12-00 is built for use exclusively with the five‑meter Proximitor sensor, making it a direct replacement or upgrade for existing installations requiring that cable length. Its 5/8‑18 UNF thread and unthreaded length of 0 inches simplify mounting in standard probe holders. The probe tip is made from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and the case from AISI 304 stainless steel, offering durability in harsh conditions.
Compatible systems include any Bently Nevada monitoring system that accepts 3300 XL series probes with a 5/8‑18 thread and five‑meter cable. The ClickLoc connector ensures a positive, vibration‑resistant connection, reducing signal noise. For specific controller or monitor compatibility, please consult the equipment documentation or contact our team.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Proper installation is essential for accurate readings. The 330708-00-24-50-12-00 probe case thread (5/8‑18) has a maximum engagement length of 0.938 inches. When tightening, use the recommended torque of 15.2 N•m (133 in•lb) — do not exceed the maximum rated torque of 45.2 N•m (400 in•lb). For the connector, finger‑tight is recommended; do not exceed 0.565 N•m (5 in•lb). The minimum bend radius of the cable is 25.4 mm (1.0 in) to avoid damage. Always verify the probe length and cable type match your Proximitor sensor before installation.
Maintenance & Reliability
This probe is designed for long life in continuous operation. Its FEP‑insulated triaxial cable resists chemicals and high temperatures. Operating and storage temperature range from -51°C to +177°C (-60°F to +351°F). Note that exposure to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) may cause premature pressure‑seal failure. Regular inspection of the cable and connector for wear or contamination is recommended. If pressure sealing is critical for your application, contact our custom design department for testing options.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
Before ordering the 330708-00-24-50-12-00, verify that your system requires a five‑meter probe with a 5/8‑18 thread and miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector. This probe is not armored; if you need armored cable, select a different option in the 330708 series.
