Bently Nevada 330879-03-00 3300 XL 50 mm Sliding Probe Bracket and Clamp Set
Two opposed probe clamps for complementary-input differential-expansion service, supplied without a mounting bracket.
Overview
Bently Nevada 330879-03-00 is a 3300 xl 50 mm sliding probe bracket and clamp set identified by the complete submitted ordering string. Its suffixes and revision fields remain part of the supply identity.
Selection of 330879-03-00 should be based on the installed label, host-system record and the verified interface details below; neighboring family numbers are not treated as interchangeable.
Engineering Data
Functions
The paired clamp style supports the opposed-probe geometry used for complementary-input differential expansion.
Left- and right-exit clamp forms keep both probe leads routed to the same side of the installation.
Option 00 intentionally excludes the separate short or long CIDE mounting bracket.
The sliding arrangement supports controlled probe alignment and verification before the clamps are secured.
Applications
- CIDE probe mounting on turbine differential-expansion measurement points.
- Maintenance of an installed 3300 XL 50 mm bracket-and-clamp arrangement.
- Replacement where the machine already provides the documented mounting structure.
Lifecycle & Service
- Record the complete 330879-03-00 label and the installed probe orientation before disassembly.
- Confirm that the existing machine bracket is retained because option 00 supplies clamps only.
- Set both probes to the approved CIDE geometry, then verify cable clearance and clamp security.
- Complete the channel zero, polarity and differential-expansion functional checks before return to service.
FAQ
Why does 330879-03-00 contain two probe clamps?
The 03 clamp-style code defines the paired left- and right-exit arrangement used for complementary-input differential expansion.
Does 330879-03-00 include a CIDE mounting bracket?
No. The final 00 code means the supply is the two clamps only; the installed supporting bracket must be confirmed separately.
How should the two cables be routed with 330879-03-00?
The opposing clamp exits are arranged so both probe cables leave on the same side, reducing crossing at the CIDE mounting point.
Can a single-clamp 330879 variant replace 330879-03-00?
Not as a direct substitution. A single-clamp execution does not provide the paired CIDE geometry defined by 330879-03-00.
What evidence should accompany a 330879-03-00 enquiry?
Provide photographs of both clamps, the existing machine bracket, probe orientation, target geometry, cable-exit side and the complete transducer labels.
