The 330232-01-10-12-00 is a 3300 XL 8 mm button-style, 90-degree right-angle proximity probe engineered by Bently Nevada. It delivers the most advanced performance in eddy current proximity transducer systems, featuring an ultra-thin 8.4 mm profile height developed specifically for confined internal machinery areas where standard long-case probes cannot fit.
Flexible Configuration
Wide Temperature Range
Industry-Standard 80 mil Range and 200 mV/mil Scale Factor
Most applications of right-angle probes use a special probe case and a customized bracket. Sometimes the probe tip is simply packaged in the familiar “button style” configuration and glued to a mounting surface in the machine. For these applications, the new probe tip is available in a standard button probe package as part number 330232, with a tip height of only 8.4 mm (0.33 inches), designed to replace the majority of older button probe applications. Other times we, or our cus tomers, fabricate customized probe cases and brackets other than “button style.” Better robustness, flexibility, range, and delivery times make our new 90° tip assembly a welcome improve ment for any customer with tight-space mounting limitations.

Fossil Fuel Power Generation
Performing high-precision real-time monitoring of non-contact shaft radial vibration and runout inside extremely compact small boiler feed pump drive turbines or valve actuators.
Hydroelectric Power
Since the bearing chambers of certain auxiliary lube oil pumps in vertical generator units have ultra-thin walls, this button probe fits flat against the chamber wall to measure high-speed oil pump shaft displacement via custom brackets.
Petrochemical & Refining
Monitoring micron-level rotor axial thermal play against the internal wall inside the sealed cavities of high-wattage, high-speed canned motor pumps or specialized centrifugal separators to prevent dry friction in hazardous areas.
Pulp & Paper
Monitoring paper machine press roll runout under high-speed operation, utilizing the moisture-resistant FluidLoc cable on the highly humid, greasy internal sidewalls of large wire and press section roll bearing housings.
Pharmaceutical
Seamlessly fitting and securing via its ultra-thin thickness inside the compact shaft sleeves of high-speed sterile centrifuges or high-precision homogenizers to monitor micron-level agitation eccentricity.
Four critical precautions must be observed when using the 330232-01-10-12-00 button probe. First, due to its non-threaded, ultra-thin flat profile, the snugness of custom mounting brackets or industrial-grade resin adhesives must be strictly controlled to prevent physical loosening or displacement from high-frequency field vibrations. Second, an initial gap voltage calibration of approximately -9Vdc must be followed during installation to guarantee that it precisely captures the shaft's dynamic amplitudes within its finite 2.0mm linear range. Third, during routing, ensure the bend radius at the 90-degree right-angle exit exceeds 25.4mm, and use a connector protector to lock the ClickLoc port to completely block hot industrial oil inside the gearbox from seeping in. Fourth, as a standard model without hazardous area approvals, it is strictly forbidden to expose it directly to dangerous zones containing flammable and explosive gases.
It is a 3300 XL series 8mm 90-degree right-angle/button-style eddy current proximity probe, manufactured by Bently Nevada, USA.
What is the core design advantage of 330232-01-10-12-00?
Due to its ultra-thin profile and 90-degree right-angle cable exit, it is specifically designed for confined areas inside industrial machinery where standard long-case probes cannot fit.
What is the primary purpose of 330232-01-10-12-00?
It is primarily used inside high-pressure water pumps, industrial gearboxes, and small turbines for non-contact precision measurement of radial shaft vibration or axial displacement.
How should 330232-01-10-12-00 be installed and secured correctly?
Since it lacks a standard threaded case, it is typically secured laterally via a dedicated flat-bottom mounting bracket or fixed directly inside the bearing housing using industrial-grade resin adhesives.
How should 330232-01-10-12-00 be connected within a system?
It must be connected via its integrated gold ClickLoc connector to a 3300 XL 8mm extension cable, and ultimately wired into a corresponding 8mm Proximitor Sensor to output voltage signals.
