Features:
- 3300 XL 8 mm Reverse Mount Probes
- 330106-05-30 M10 x 1 threads
- 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System
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 probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor have corrosion-resistant, gold-plated ClickLoc connectors. These connectors require only finger-tight torque (the connectors will "click" when tight), and the specially-engineered locking mechanism prevents the connectors from loosening. These connectors require no special tools for installation or removal.
The 330106-05-30-10-02-05 Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm Reverse Mount Probes may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
Each 3300 XL 8 mm Transducer System component is backward compatible and interchangeable4 with other nonXL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm transducer system components. This compatibility includes the 3300 5 mm probe, for applications in which an 8 mm probe is too large for the available mounting space.
This probe is used in critical mechanical protection systems, such as the Bently Nevada 3500, to monitor:
Radial Vibration: Measures the dynamic movement of the shaft in pumps, compressors, and fans to detect early signs of bearing failure or imbalance.
Axial (Thrust) Position: Tracks the static position of the rotor to prevent contact between rotating and stationary parts.
Velocity and Key Phasor Signals: Provides a phase reference for diagnostics and high-precision speed monitoring.
Confined Space Installation: The reverse mounting design allows the probe to be installed externally from the machine housing through a threaded hole (M10 x 1), ideal for internal bearing housings.
Installation and Commissioning
- Verify the complete order code
- Confirm system and termination compatibility
- Follow manufacturer handling guidance
Confirm the M10 × 1 reverse-mount sleeve and 30 mm case envelope, protect the cable and ClickLoc connector, follow approval drawings and set the operating gap after connecting the matched system.
Use it with a one-meter 3300 XL 8 mm Proximitor Sensor and the specified reverse-mount sleeve arrangement. Do not mix one-, five- and nine-meter calibration components.
