FAQ

Q1 — What does this proximity probe measure?

A: It measures shaft vibration and displacement non‑contact using eddy‑current sensing. The output is a voltage proportional to the gap between the probe tip and the metal surface being monitored.

Q2 — What does the part number 330102‑08‑50‑10‑02‑05 signify?
A: While specific internal code breakdowns vary by configuration, typically:

• 330102: 3300 XL series 8 mm proximity probe family

• 50: Approximately 50 mm case length (longer probe body)

• 10: Cable length around 1.0 m

• 02: Miniature coaxial ClickLoc™ connector

• 05: Agency approvals such as CSA/ATEX/IECEx (hazardous‑area certifications)
  (This interpretation reflects general Bently Nevada coding practice — refer to the official ordering guide for exact meaning.)

Q3 — How is this probe installed?
A: The threaded body is screwed into a machine housing or probe mount so the tip faces the rotating shaft. It connects via the ClickLoc™ connector and cable to a Proximitor conditioning module or compatible monitor. Proper torque and gap settings should be followed per datasheet guidance.
