The 330101-00-53-10-12-05 is a classic eddy current probe from Bently Nevada's 3300 XL series, 8mm in diameter. This probe features an unarmored, 5.3-inch fully threaded housing and a 1-meter leak-proof cable, meets API 670 industry standards, and has multiple international explosion-proof certifications.

One 3300 XL extension cable
One 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor
The system provides an output voltage that is directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed conductive surface and can measure both static (position) and dynamic (vibration) values. The system’s primary applications are vibration and position measurements on fluid-film bearing machines, as well as Keyphasor reference and speed measurements.The 3300 XL 8 mm system delivers the most advanced performance in our eddy current proximity transducer systems. The standard 3300 XL 8 mm 5-meter system also fully complies with the American Petroleum Institute’s (API) 670 Standard for mechanical configuration, linear range, accuracy, and temperature stability. All 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer systems provide this level of performance and support complete interchangeability of probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors, eliminating the need to match or bench calibrate individual components.

Oil & Gas Industry
Installed on centrifugal compressors to measure radial vibration of the shaft. The FluidLoc cable prevents high-pressure lubricating oil inside the machine from leaking out through the cable core to external junction boxes.
Power Generation Industry
Installed on the thrust bearings of steam turbines or hydro-generators to monitor axial displacement (axial thrust position), triggering automatic safety interlocking protection when severe thrust pad wear occurs.
Steel and Metal Industry
Used at the journal bearings of large blast furnace blowers or rolling mill drive motors to monitor shaft centerline/attitude angle, analyzing the dynamic oil film thickness and alignment under extremely heavy loads.
Mining and Minerals Industry
Used on large vibrating screens, heavy-duty crushers, and mine ventilation fans for machinery protection, preventing catastrophic mechanical failures via the 3500 monitoring system.
Pulp and Paper Industry
Used on high-speed refiners or high-temperature drying cylinder bearings to monitor thermal expansion and shaft runout. Its TipLoc molded probe tip can withstand the harsh, hot, and humid chemical steam environments of paper mills.
When using the 330101-00-53-10-12-05 probe in explosive hazardous areas, it must be strictly paired with an intrinsically safe barrier to ensure safety,during installation, the precise initial gap must be maintained by monitoring the output voltage at the linear midpoint of around -10V, and the shaft surface must remain clean and free of residual magnetism to eliminate false vibration signals.Meanwhile, it is strictly forbidden to cut or splice the cables to maintain system impedance matching, and the coaxial connectors must be properly insulated and sealed against moisture and oil to prevent data drift caused by contamination.
The 330101-00-53-10-12-05 is a 3300 XL series 8 mm Eddy Current Proximity Probe manufactured by Bently Nevada.
How to use products like the 330101-00-53-10-12-05?
To use it, thread its fully threaded case into a bearing housing or bracket so that the probe tip faces the rotating shaft surface, and adjust it to the proper initial gap. It must be connected to a 3300 XL Proximitor via a 3300 XL extension cable to work properly.
What is the primary function of the 330101-00-53-10-12-05 in the system?
Its primary function is acting as the "eyes" of the monitoring system, converting minute dynamic or static displacement changes on the shaft surface into impedance changes, and eventually outputting a voltage signal proportional to the gap at the Proximitor.
Can the 330101-00-53-10-12-05 be repaired on site after damage?
No. This probe has a high-precision, integrally encapsulated structure. The internal coil and cable are insulated and sealed at the factory. If wire breakage, coil burnout, or case deformation occurs, the entire probe must be replaced.
How to determine if the 330101-00-53-10-12-05 is normal or damaged?
When not connected to an extension cable, measure the resistance between the center pin and outer shell of the ClickLoc connector using a multimeter. Normal resistance is typically between 5.0 and 12.0 ohms. If it shows infinity or short circuit, it is damaged.
