330180-52-05 Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor 5.0m

Product Overview of the 330180-52-05

The Bently Nevada 330180-52-05 is a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor engineered for precise non-contacting displacement measurement in rotating machinery protection systems. As part of the 3300 XL series, it accepts one 3300-series 5 mm or 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe and extension cable. The sensor's A308 aluminum housing and gold-plated brass or beryllium copper connectors ensure durable, reliable signal transmission in demanding industrial environments. With a 5.0-meter (16.4 feet) system length and no mounting hardware included, this model suits high-density DIN-rail or traditional panel-mount configurations.

Key Specifications and Performance Data

Every parameter of the 330180-52-05 is verified for engineering-grade accuracy. The table below summarizes critical electrical and environmental specifications.

• Input Voltage: -17.5 Vdc to -26 Vdc (non-incendive, 12 mA max); -23 Vdc to -26 Vdc with barriers
• Output Resistance: 50 Ω
• Supply Sensitivity: Less than 2 mV output change per volt input change
• Operating Temperature: -52°C to +100°C (-62°F to +212°F)
• Storage Temperature: -52°C to +105°C (-62°F to +221°F)
• Weight: 246 g (8.67 oz)
• Agency Approvals: CSA, ATEX, IECEx

Notably, the sensor's improved RFI/EMI immunity satisfies European CE mark requirements without special shielded conduit or metallic housings. This reduces installation cost and complexity. The SpringLoc terminal strips eliminate screw-type clamping, providing faster and more robust field wiring.

Installation and Integration

The 330180-52-05 supports both DIN-rail and panel-mount installation. Its mounting base provides electrical isolation, eliminating separate isolator plates. For hazardous areas, install per drawing 140979 when using non-incendive circuits. Operation at a more positive voltage than -23.5 Vdc can reduce linear range. Therefore, verify supply voltage carefully. The sensor accepts one non-contacting 3300-series 5 mm or 3300 XL 8 mm probe and extension cable. When integrating into machinery protection systems, ensure the extension cable matches the probe type. The SpringLoc terminals require no special tools, which simplifies field wiring.

Reliability and Maintenance

The 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor is highly immune to radio frequency interference, allowing installation in fiberglass housings without adverse effects. This immunity reduces the risk of signal degradation in electrically noisy environments. Regular inspection of terminal connections and cable integrity is recommended. Because the sensor operates over a wide temperature range, ensure the installation environment remains within -52°C to +100°C. The A308 aluminum housing resists corrosion, but periodic visual checks for mechanical damage are advised. Following manufacturer guidelines for maintenance will help sustain long-term reliability.
