Description
1. Product Title
Bently Nevada 330180-X1-CN – 3300 XL Proximitor® Sensor
2. Product Overview
The 330180-X1-CN – 3300 is a hazardous-area certified Proximitor® sensor from the 3300 XL series, designed for precise non-contact proximity measurements in rotating machinery monitoring systems. This sensor processes signals from 8 mm proximity probes to deliver voltage outputs proportional to shaft vibration, position, and speed, enabling comprehensive condition monitoring in explosive environments. It addresses critical safety and reliability challenges by providing noise-resistant signals compliant with ATEX/IECEx and Chinese NEPSI standards, preventing equipment failures through early fault detection. With its X1 length/mounting option and CN agency approvals, the <span style=”color: blue;”>Bently Nevada 330180-X1-CN</span> integrates seamlessly into 3300/3500 racks for petrochemical, power, and offshore applications.
