Features:
- 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor
- 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System
- The 3300 XL probe and extension cable also reflect improvements over previous designs
The system provides an output voltage that is directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed conductive surface and can measure both static (position) and dynamic (vibration) values. The system’s primary applications are vibration and position measurements on fluid-film bearing machines, as well as Keyphasor reference and speed measurements.
Each 3300 XL 8 mm Transducer System component is backward compatible and interchangeable4 with other nonXL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm transducer system components. This compatibility includes the 3300 5 mm probe, for applications in which an 8 mm probe is too large for the available mounting space.
The 330180-x1-05 145004-64 Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
The 3300 XL 8 mm system is our most advanced eddy current proximity sensor system. The standard 3300 XL 8 mm 5-meter system fully complies with American Petroleum Institute (API) 670 standards, meeting requirements in terms of mechanical construction, linear range, accuracy, and temperature stability. All 3300 XL 8 mm proximity sensor systems achieve this level of performance and support complete interchangeability of probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors, eliminating the need for individual component matching or bench calibration.
- This sensor is a crucial component for condition monitoring of critical rotating equipment:
- Vibration and Position Monitoring: Measures radial vibration and axial (thrust) position in hydrodynamic bearing machinery such as steam turbines and large pumps.
- Special Material Targets: The improved 145004-64 ensures the sensor maintains accuracy when pointing to non-standard shaft materials (common in certain marine or chemical equipment).
- Velocity and Time: Provides phase and velocity data for mechanical diagnostics, serving as a Keyphasor® reference.
- Hazardous Area Use: The 05 suffix confirms multiple safety certifications (CSA, ATEX, IECEx), allowing installation in flammable and explosive industrial environments.
