Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I use a 5mm probe (330905) as a replacement for this 8mm probe?
A: No. The 5mm and 8mm probes have different linear ranges, scale factors, and require different drivers. They are not interchangeable without recalibrating the entire transducer system.
Q: Does cable length affect system performance?
A: Yes. The total system cable length (probe cable + extension cable) must match the driver’s calibrated length. Mixing lengths will shift the scale factor and zero-position output. Always match the total length specified on your driver label.
Q: Can this probe work with non-Bently Nevada monitors?
A: The probe itself is passive and can work with any eddy current driver that accepts a 10-32 coaxial input and is calibrated for 8mm probes. However, API 670 compliance requires using matched, certified system components.
Q: What is the lead time for this part?
A: Standard stock items ship within 3–5 business days. For out-of-stock items, typical lead time is 2–4 weeks. Contact us for real-time availability.
Q: Do you provide calibration certificates?
A: Yes. Original factory calibration certificates are included where available. Third-party calibration reports can be arranged upon request.
