Key Parameters
Core Features & Advantages
-
Complete Interchangeability and Factory Calibration: A standout feature of the 3300 XL system is the complete interchangeability of its components (probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors). This eliminates the need for time-consuming bench calibration or component matching. Each 5-meter system is factory calibrated as a matched set, ensuring high accuracy out of the box.
-
Exceptional Environmental Immunity: The 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor offers improved RFI/EMI immunity sufficient to satisfy European CE mark approvals. This allows it to be installed in fiberglass housings without performance degradation and without the need for expensive shielded conduit, reducing installation costs.
-
Flexible and Backward-Compatible Installation: The physical packaging supports both high-density DIN-rail installations and traditional panel mount configurations. Its mounting base provides electrical isolation and maintains the same 4-hole mounting "footprint" as older Proximitor designs, allowing for seamless upgrades.
-
Designed for Critical Machinery Protection: The sensor is engineered to meet the stringent performance criteria of the American Petroleum Institute (API) 670 Standard for continuous shaft vibration and position monitoring. The system is designed to be highly reliable in harsh environments and provides a stable, linear output that is essential for protecting turbomachinery.
Typical Applications
The 330180-50-05 is a critical component for monitoring and protecting rotating machinery in heavy industries:
-
Power Generation: Permanent vibration monitoring of steam turbines, gas turbines, and generators.
-
Oil & Gas: Safeguarding centrifugal compressors, pumps, and fans in refineries, pipelines, and petrochemical plants.
-
Heavy Industry: Radial vibration and axial thrust position monitoring on large motors, gearboxes, and other critical assets in steel, mining, and paper mills.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What does the model number "330180-50-05" indicate?
A: The model number breaks down as follows: "330180" is the base model for the 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor. "-50-" indicates a 5.0-meter system length with panel mounting. "-05" specifies the agency approval option, which is CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications for hazardous locations.
Q2: What is the difference between 330180-50-05 and 330180-51-05?
A: Both models have a 5.0-meter system length and the same agency approvals. The key difference is the mounting type: -50- denotes panel mounting, while -51- denotes DIN rail mounting.
Q3: Can this Proximitor be used with non-Bently Nevada probes?
A: The Proximitor is designed to work specifically with 3300-series 5 mm, 3300 8 mm, or 3300 XL 8 mm probes and extension cables. While interchangeability is a key feature of the 3300 XL system, using non-Bently components is not recommended and would void the system's performance guarantee and certifications.
Q4: What is a "matched set," and why is it important?
A: A matched set means the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor are factory-selected and calibrated together to ensure system accuracy and linearity. All 3300 XL 8 mm components are designed for complete interchangeability, meaning any compatible probe can be used with any compatible Proximitor without requiring additional matching or calibration.
Q5: Does the system require field calibration after installation?
A: No. Each 330180-50-05 system is factory-calibrated as a complete unit. Once installed, the only adjustment typically required is setting the correct gap voltage, often around -9 Vdc for a 1.27 mm (50 mil) gap. The system is designed for "plug-and-play" operation with a Bently Nevada monitor.
Q6: What are the power requirements?
A: The Proximitor requires a DC power supply of -17.5 Vdc to -26 Vdc. When used with intrinsic safety barriers, the supply voltage should be between -23 Vdc and -26 Vdc.
