Features:
- Designed for 1.0m total system length (probe + extension cable); snaps onto 35 mm DIN rail; SpringLoc terminals for vibration‑resistant wiring.
- Certified for Zone 2 and Class I Division 2 locations; “05” suffix indicates multiple global approvals; high RFI immunity allows fiberglass housings.
- Fully compatible with 3300 XL 8 mm probes and extension cables; backward compatible with non‑XL 3300 series components; no bench calibration required.
The 330180-X1-05 MOD:145004-66 is a Proximitor sensor designed for a total system length of exactly 1.0 meter. In the 3300 XL system, the total length is the sum of the probe cable length plus the extension cable length (if used). For example, a probe with 0.5m integral cable plus a 0.5m extension cable equals 1.0m. Alternatively, a probe with 1.0m integral cable can be used without an extension cable. The “X1” in the part number indicates DIN rail mounting (option 11). The sensor snaps directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail, allowing dense installation in control cabinets. The SpringLoc terminal strips provide screwless, vibration‑resistant field wiring connections – a spring clamp maintains constant pressure on the wire, eliminating the risk of screw loosening due to machine vibration.
The 330180-X1-05 MOD:145004-66 carries the “05” suffix, indicating multiple hazardous area approvals: CSA (Canada), ATEX (Europe), and IECEx (international). These certifications allow the sensor to be installed in Zone 2 gas explosive atmospheres and Class I Division 2 locations (North America). In such areas, ordinary electronic equipment would require explosion‑proof enclosures, adding significant cost and weight. The Proximitor sensor’s design meets the requirements for “non‑incendive” or “nA” protection, meaning it does not produce sparks or high temperatures under normal operation. Additionally, the sensor has high immunity to radio frequency interference and electromagnetic interference (RFI/EMI).
The 330180-X1-05 MOD:145004-66 is part of Bently Nevada’s 3300 XL system, which is designed for complete component interchangeability. In older transducer systems, each probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor had to be individually calibrated and matched to achieve specified accuracy. The 3300 XL system eliminates this requirement. Any 3300 XL 8 mm probe works with any 3300 XL extension cable and any 3300 XL Proximitor sensor – no bench calibration or component matching is needed. The sensor is also backward compatible with non‑XL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm components. This compatibility is critical for plant maintenance: a spare sensor can be taken from stock and installed without waiting for calibration or performing on‑site adjustments. The mixing XL and non‑XL components limits performance to non‑XL specifications, but the system remains functional.
The 330180-X1-05 MOD:145004-66 Bently Nevada Proximitor Sensor may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond
End-Of-Life (EOL)by the manufacturer (OEM).

- Power Generation: Used on steam turbines, gas turbines, and massive hydro-generators.
- Oil & Gas / Petrochemical: Applied to centrifugal compressors, turbo-expanders, and high-pressure pumps.
- Heavy Industry: Installed in large fans, blowers, and gearboxes within steel or cement plants.
- Early Fault Detection: Instantly identifies unbalance, shaft misalignment, oil whirl/whip, and bearing clearance degradation.
- Automated Trip Interlocking: Interfaced with a monitoring system (like Bently Nevada 3500), the signal triggers alarms or machine shutdowns if vibration thresholds are breached.
- NOT OK Circuitry: Constantly verifies the physical integrity of the loop (probe, cable, and sensor).
- Fault Isolation: If a field wire snaps or short-circuits, the monitor identifies a sensor failure ("NOT OK" status) instead of triggering a false machinery vibration trip.
- System Length Matching: Ensure the total electrical length matches your hardware configuration. For example, a 5-meter Proximitor requires a combined probe and extension cable length of exactly 5 meters.
- Mechanical Mounting: Snap the sensor onto standard 35mm DIN-rails. The integrated mounting base provides isolation, meaning no extra isolator plates are required.
- Field Wiring: Use the integrated SpringLoc terminal strips. Insert the wires without screw-type drivers to eliminate problems caused by loose connections in high-vibration zones.
- Physical Gapping: Adjust the physical gap between the probe tip and the target shaft surface to roughly 1.27 mm (50 mils), ensuring it sits in the middle of the linear voltage operating range.
