Excellent PLC
Product Description
The Bently Nevada 330180-X1-CN 143416-42 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor is a high-performance component in the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System. It measures both static (position) and dynamic (vibration) displacement of conductive targets, mainly used on fluid-film bearing machines for vibration monitoring, position tracking, Keyphasor reference, and speed measurement.
The sensor’s compact design allows for DIN-rail or panel mounting, with enhanced RFI/EMI immunity for reliable operation in harsh environments without the need for shielded conduit. SpringLoc terminal strips allow fast, tool-free wiring. Gold-plated ClickLoc connectors ensure secure and corrosion-resistant connections.
