BENTLY 330104-00-05-10-02-CN
Product introduction
The 330104-00-05-10-02-CN from Bently Nevada is a premium high-sensitivity velocity sensor, engineered for precision vibration monitoring in critical rotating machinery. As an advanced member of Bently Nevada’s 3300 series, this sensor delivers enhanced measurement capabilities for detecting subtle vibration patterns that indicate early-stage machinery degradation. Designed specifically to meet the demands of industrial environments in China and global markets, it combines superior sensitivity with rugged construction to provide reliable vibration data for predictive maintenance programs.
Unlike standard velocity sensors, the 330104-00-05-10-02-CN offers extended frequency response and higher sensitivity, making it ideal for monitoring large turbines, compressors, and high-value rotating equipment where early fault detection is critical. Its moving-coil design generates an AC voltage directly proportional to vibration velocity, eliminating the need for signal integration from acceleration data. When paired with compatible signal conditioners like the 125720-01 and mounting hardware such as the 1X35668 kit, it forms a robust monitoring solution for protecting critical machinery assets.
Core advantages and technical highlights
Enhanced sensitivity performance: The 330104-00-05-10-02-CN features a high sensitivity of 200mV/mm/s—double that of standard velocity sensors—enabling detection of extremely subtle vibration changes that precede machinery failures. This increased sensitivity makes it particularly effective for identifying early-stage bearing defects, gear wear, and structural looseness in critical equipment.
Extended measurement capabilities: With a 0-50mm/s peak velocity range and expanded 5Hz to 1000Hz frequency response, this sensor captures both low-frequency structural vibrations and higher-frequency mechanical issues. The lower 5Hz cutoff is especially valuable for monitoring large rotating machinery like turbines and generators, where critical vibration components often occur at lower frequencies.
Superior temperature resilience: Rated for operation from -54°C to 149°C, the 330104-00-05-10-02-CN outperforms standard velocity sensors in high-temperature environments. Its 316 stainless steel housing and high-temperature coil insulation withstand thermal cycling and prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures, ensuring measurement stability in applications like turbine monitoring and process equipment near heat sources.
Industrial-grade durability: The sensor’s hermetically sealed construction provides exceptional resistance to moisture, dust, and chemical contamination. Enhanced connector sealing with strain relief protects against cable fatigue in high-vibration environments, while the rugged housing resists shock up to 1500g and vibration up to 25g. This durability ensures reliable operation in harsh industrial settings.
China market compliance: The 330104-00-05-10-02-CN includes CCC (China Compulsory Certification), ensuring compliance with Chinese regulatory requirements for electrical equipment. This certification simplifies deployment in Chinese industrial facilities while maintaining global standards for performance and safety.
Typical application scenarios
In thermal power plants, the 330104-00-05-10-02-CN is installed on steam turbine bearings and generator end shields, where its high sensitivity detects early signs of rotor imbalance and bearing degradation. The extended temperature range allows operation near turbine casings, while the low-frequency response captures critical vibration modes in large rotating equipment. Data from these sensors helps plant operators schedule maintenance before catastrophic failures occur.
Within petrochemical facilities, the 330104-00-05-10-02-CN monitors large centrifugal compressors and pumps in hazardous areas. Its ATEX certification ensures safe operation in potentially explosive environments, while the enhanced sensitivity detects subtle vibration changes caused by impeller wear or seal degradation in high-value process equipment. The sensor’s robust construction withstands exposure to hydrocarbon vapors and process contaminants.
In China’s manufacturing sector, the 330104-00-05-10-02-CN provides precision vibration monitoring for critical production line equipment, including large motors, reducers, and rolling mill stands. Its CCC certification simplifies integration into local control systems, while the high sensitivity enables detection of gear mesh anomalies and bearing defects in heavy machinery. When paired with the 125720-01 signal conditioner, it provides 4-20mA outputs for integration with plant-wide SCADA systems.

Installation, commissioning and maintenance instructions
Installation preparation: Before installing the 330104-00-05-10-02-CN, select a mounting location on rigid machine structures near bearing housings to ensure optimal vibration transfer. The surface must be clean, flat, and free of paint or corrosion. For hazardous area installations, verify the location classification matches the sensor’s ATEX Zone 2 rating. Plan cable routing to avoid sharp bends (minimum 20mm radius), moving parts, and EMI sources.
Mounting procedure: Secure the sensor using the 10-32 UNF stud, torquing to 3.0 Nm (26.5 in-lbs) for proper vibration transfer. For temporary measurements, use the heavy-duty magnetic base ensuring full contact with the machine surface. Connect the integral cable to a compatible signal conditioner or junction box, ensuring the MIL-C-5015 connector is fully seated and the locking ring is tightened. Implement proper strain relief to prevent cable damage from machine movement.
Maintenance suggestions: Inspect the sensor quarterly for physical damage, loose mounting, or cable wear. Verify mounting torque remains at specification, as loose mounting significantly affects measurement accuracy. Check connections for corrosion, especially in humid environments, and clean with a dry cloth if necessary. Clean the sensor housing with a mild detergent, avoiding abrasive materials. Perform annual calibration using a high-precision vibration calibrator to maintain the sensor’s high-sensitivity performance.
