Operating Temperature: −35°C to +177°C (probe tip)
Target Material: Steel / ferrous metals (standard)
Connector: Integral coaxial, compatible with 3300 XL extension cables
Agency Approvals: CE, ATEX (consult datasheet for zone ratings)
Weight: ~500 g (probe + cable assembly)

Note: Always verify specifications against the official Bently Nevada datasheet before installation.

Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models

When the original 3300/5/1 is unavailable or cost-prohibitive, the following models are commonly evaluated as replacements. Compatibility must be verified against your system configuration before substitution.

Model	Brand	Tip Dia.	Cable	Compatibility Notes
3300/5/1	Bently Nevada (OEM)	5 mm	1 m	Original — direct fit
3300/5/2	Bently Nevada	5 mm	2 m	Longer cable variant; same probe head
3300/8/1	Bently Nevada	8 mm	1 m	Larger tip; different sensitivity — verify driver compatibility
PR6423/010-030	Epro / GE	8 mm	—	Cross-brand equivalent; requires compatible driver/conditioner
CWY-DO-810	Shinkawa / Generic	8 mm	—	Budget alternative; verify signal range and linearity

Important: Probe, extension cable, and driver/conditioner must be purchased and calibrated as a matched set for accurate measurement.

Why Choose the Original Model

Factory Calibration: The 3300/5/1 is factory-calibrated as part of a matched probe/cable/driver system, ensuring measurement accuracy within ±1%.
System Certification: OEM parts maintain API 670 compliance and do not void existing system certifications.
Long-term Support: Bently Nevada provides full technical support, firmware compatibility, and traceability documentation.
Reliability: Proven in critical rotating machinery monitoring (turbines, compressors, pumps) in oil & gas, power generation, and petrochemical industries.

Typical Applications

Radial shaft vibration monitoring on steam and gas turbines
Axial position measurement on centrifugal compressors
Differential expansion monitoring in power plant turbines
Eccentricity and speed measurement on large rotating machinery
Keyphasor® reference signal generation

System Compatibility

The 3300/5/1 probe is designed to operate within the Bently Nevada 3300 Series monitoring ecosystem. Ensure the following components are matched:

Extension Cable: 3300 XL Series (e.g., 330130-045-00-CN)
Driver/Conditioner: 3300 XL 8 mm Proximitor® or equivalent 3300-series driver
Monitor: 3300/16 or 3500 Series rack-mounted monitors
DCS/PLC Integration: 4–20 mA or voltage output compatible with Siemens, ABB, Emerson DeltaV, Honeywell systems

Selection Guide

Use the following criteria to select the correct probe for your application:

Tip Diameter: 5 mm (3300/5/x) for tight clearance installations; 8 mm (3300/8/x) for standard installations with higher sensitivity.
Cable Length: Select suffix /1 (1 m), /2 (2 m), /5 (5 m) based on distance from probe to junction box. Total system cable length (probe + extension) must match driver calibration range.
Target Material: Standard probes calibrated for AISI 4140 steel. Non-standard targets (titanium, aluminum, Inconel) require recalibration or special-order probes.
Environment: For high-temperature zones (>150°C), specify high-temperature probe variants. For hazardous areas, confirm ATEX/IECEx zone rating.
Replacement vs. Upgrade: If upgrading from 3300 to 3500 Series monitors, consult Bently Nevada migration guide — some probes are cross-compatible.

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ

Q: Can I use a 3300/8/1 probe as a direct replacement for the 3300/5/1?
A: No. The 5 mm and 8 mm probes have different sensitivity scales and require different drivers. Substituting without recalibration will produce inaccurate readings.

Q: Is the 3300/5/1 compatible with the Bently Nevada 3500 Series monitors?
A: In many cases yes, but compatibility depends on the specific 3500 monitor card. Consult the 3500 Series compatibility matrix or contact Konmask for verification.

Q: Can I replace just the probe without replacing the extension cable and driver?
A: Only if the replacement probe is from the same matched set. Mixing unmatched components will affect system accuracy and may void API 670 compliance.

Q: Do you supply calibration certificates?
A: Yes. Calibration certificates and factory test reports are available upon request, subject to availability based on part origin (OEM new, surplus, or refurbished).

Q: What is the lead time for the 3300/5/1?
A: Lead time varies by stock availability. In-stock units ship within 3–5 business days. Out-of-stock items typically have a 4–8 week lead time. Contact us for current availability.
