FAQ

Q1: What is the purpose of the Bently Nevada 330101-00-18-20-12-05?

A1: This proximity probe and extension cable are integral components of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System,

used for monitoring shaft displacement in rotating machinery. It provides real-time data to predictive

maintenance systems, helping detect issues like misalignment or bearing wear.

Q2: Is the system compatible with other Bently Nevada components?

A2: Yes, the 3300 XL 8 mm system components are interchangeable with other 3300 series parts,

including 5 mm probes and extension cables. This compatibility simplifies maintenance

and upgrades without the need for recalibration.

Q3: What are the connector types used in this system?

A3: The system utilizes corrosion-resistant, gold-plated ClickLoc connectors, which require only

finger-tight torque for secure connections. These connectors prevent loosening and

do not require special tools for installation or removal.

Q4: Can the system operate in extreme temperatures?

A4: Yes, the standard system operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +177°C. For applications requiring

higher temperature resistance, extended temperature range (ETR) probes and extension

cables are available, with ratings up to 218°C for probes and 260°C for cables.
