- 3300 XL 11 mm Probe, 5/8-18 UNF thread, without armor
- 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Transducer System
The 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Transducer System has a 3.94 V/mm (100 mV/mil) output for non-contacting vibration and displacement measurements on fluid film bearing machines. The large 11 mm tip enables this transducer system to have a longer linear range compared to our standard 3300 XL 8 mm Transducer System.
The 3300 XL 11 mm Proximitor Sensor is designed to replace the 7200-series 11 mm and 14 mm Transducer Systems. When upgrading from the 7200-series system to the 3300 XL 11 mm system, every component must be replaced with 3300 XL 11 mm components. In addition, the monitoring system must be updated. If using a 3500 Monitoring System, an updated version of the configuration software that lists the 3300 XL 11 mm Transducer System as a compatible option is required.
The 330707-00-20-10-11-00 Bently Nevada Proximity Probes may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The 3300 XL 11 mm probe comes in varying probe case configurations, including armored and unarmored ½-20, 5⁄8 -18, M14 X 1.5 and M16 X 1.5 probe threads. The reverse mount 3300 XL 11 mm probe comes standard with either 3⁄8-24 or M10 X 1 threads. All components of the transducer system have gold-plated brass ClickLoc connectors. ClickLoc connectors lock into place, preventing the connection from becoming loose.
When a longer linear measurement range is required, the 11 mm probe is superior to the standard 8 mm probe. It provides a linear measurement range of 4.0 mm (160 mil) and is typically used in large rotating machinery such as steam turbine generators and reciprocating compressors.
Key applications include:
Axial (Thrust) Position: Monitors the axial movement of the shaft to prevent direct metal-to-metal contact within bearings.
Differential Expansion: Measures the difference in expansion between the turbine rotor and its casing during startup and shutdown.
Piston Rod Drop Monitoring: Specifically designed for reciprocating compressors, it monitors piston band wear by measuring the vertical position of the piston rod.
Speed and Phase Reference: Used as a key phase in tachometers and zero-speed measurements.
