Bently Nevada 330780-X1-05 3300 XL 11 mm Proximitor Sensor
Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330780-X1-05 brings the proven 3300 XL series performance to a DIN-rail mountable format. Its thin profile fits perfectly into high-density control cabinets. Enhanced RFI/EMI immunity allows CE mark approval without special mounting precautions. Moreover, this immunity blocks interference from nearby high-frequency radio signals. SpringLoc terminal strips require no specialized tools for installation. Consequently, field wiring becomes faster and more robust. The “X1” option specifies DIN rail mounting, while “05” indicates multiple agency approvals.
Available Configurations
Two System Length Options
The 330780-X1-05 product code covers two distinct configurations:
Both options share the same electrical specifications and agency approval package. Choose 51 for shorter runs or 91 for longer probe placement flexibility.
Technical Specifications
Electrical Parameters
Input: Accepts one non-contacting 3300 XL 11 mm Proximity Probe and Extension Cable.
Power Requirement: -17.5 Vdc to -26 Vdc without barriers at 12 mA maximum consumption; -23 Vdc to -26 Vdc with barriers. Operation above -23.5 Vdc may reduce linear range.
Sensitivity: Less than 2 mV change in output voltage per volt change in input voltage.
Output Resistance: 50 Ω.
Calibration Details
This Proximitor Sensor leaves the factory calibrated to AISI 4140 steel as standard. Calibration to other target materials remains available upon request.
Agency Approval & Compliance
Multiple Approvals (Option 05)
The “05” suffix in 330780-X1-05 indicates this version carries multiple agency approvals. These typically include CE, CSA, and ATEX certifications depending on the specific variant. This makes the sensor suitable for international installations requiring broad regulatory compliance.
RFI/EMI Immunity
Improved immunity allows this sensor to achieve CE mark approval without special mounting considerations. Therefore, you can install it confidently in electrically noisy industrial environments.
Mechanical & Environmental Ratings
Proximitor Sensor Material
A380 aluminum construction provides excellent durability and heat dissipation for continuous operation.
Temperature Range
Relative Humidity
The sensor withstands 100% condensing humidity. However, it remains non-submersible when connectors are properly protected. It has passed IEC 68-2-3 damp heat testing.
Dimensions (HxWxD)
Approximately 6.35 cm x 6.12 cm x 8.13 cm for both options.
Installation & Mounting Guide
DIN Rail Mounting (X1 Option)
The “X1” designation specifies DIN rail mount configuration. This differs from standard panel mount versions. First, snap the sensor directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Next, ensure it clicks firmly into place. Finally, connect your field wiring using the SpringLoc terminals. No additional mounting brackets or hardware are required.
Wiring with SpringLoc Terminals
SpringLoc terminal strips simplify field connections. First, strip the wire end to the correct length. Next, insert the stripped wire into the terminal opening. Then press down firmly to lock the connection. The spring mechanism holds the wire securely without screws.
Placement Considerations
Although this model offers excellent RFI immunity, avoid mounting it directly next to high-power variable frequency drives or radio transmitters. This simple step ensures optimal measurement accuracy.
Target Material Planning
For measurement targets made from materials other than AISI 4140 steel, request factory recalibration before placing your order. This proactive step guarantees accurate and reliable readings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the difference between option 51 and option 91 for the Bently Nevada 330780-X1-05?
Option 51 provides a 5.0 meter total system length including extension cable. Option 91 provides a 9.0 meter system length. Both use DIN rail mounting and share the same multiple approvals package.
2. What does “multiple approvals” (option 05) include?
Option 05 typically includes CE, CSA, and ATEX certifications. This allows the 330780-X1-05 to be used in various international markets without additional compliance work.
3. Can I use the DIN mount version in a panel mount configuration?
The “X1” model is specifically designed for DIN rails. For panel mount applications, please order the standard “90” or “50” options without the X1 designation.
4. Does operating above -23.5 Vdc damage the sensor?
It does not cause permanent damage. However, operation above -23.5 Vdc may reduce the linear measurement range. Always stay within -23 Vdc to -26 Vdc when using safety barriers.
5. Is this Proximitor Sensor compatible with non-AISI 4140 steel targets?
Yes, but factory recalibration is required. Please request this option when ordering to ensure accurate measurements for your specific target material.
