Product Description
The Bently Nevada 330180-X1-IN 145004-137 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor is part of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System, designed for precise vibration and position measurements in fluid-film bearing machinery. It works with an 8 mm proximity probe and extension cable to deliver an output voltage directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the conductive target surface.
This sensor meets API 670 mechanical and performance standards, supports full component interchangeability, and provides superior immunity to RFI/EMI, enabling reliable use even in high-interference environments. Its design allows for DIN-rail or panel mounting, with improved installation efficiency via SpringLoc terminal strips.
