FAQ

Q1: What is the Bently Nevada 330101-08-20-10-02-00 Proximity Probe used for?
A: This proximity probe is primarily used for measuring the position, vibration, and movement of rotating machinery components.

It is commonly applied in machinery condition monitoring and protection systems.

Q2: What type of sensor technology does this proximity probe use?
A: It uses eddy-current (or inductive) sensor technology, which allows non-contact measurement of

the distance between the probe tip and the target surface.

Q3: Is the 330101-08-20-10-02-00 probe compatible with all Bently Nevada monitoring systems?
A: It is compatible with most Bently Nevada monitoring systems that support proximity probes,

including the 3500 Series and other condition monitoring platforms.

Q4: How do I install the Bently Nevada proximity probe?
A: The probe is installed by mounting it close to the rotating shaft or target surface, typically through a threaded hole or

probe holder. Proper alignment and gap setting (usually around 0.005" to 0.020") are critical for accurate measurement.
