Bently Nevada 330980-50-05 NSv Proximitor Sensor 3300 XL
Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330980-50-05 belongs to the 3300 XL series as an NSv Proximitor Sensor. It shares many features with the 3300 XL 8 mm model. Its slim design supports both high‑density DIN‑rail and traditional panel mount configurations. Additionally, improved RFI/EMI immunity ensures European CE mark approval without any special mounting considerations. This immunity also blocks interference from nearby high‑frequency radio signals. SpringLoc terminal strips require no special installation tools. Therefore, field wiring becomes faster and more robust.
Key Technical Specifications
The Bently Nevada 330980-50-05 accepts one non‑contacting 3300 RAM or 3300 NSv proximity probe along with an extension cable. Power requirements are -17.5 Vdc to -26 Vdc without barriers, with a maximum consumption of 12 mA. With barriers, the range is -23 Vdc to -26 Vdc. Operation above -23.5 Vdc may reduce the linear range. Supply sensitivity is less than 2 mV change in output per volt change in input. Output resistance is 50 Ω.
Unless noted otherwise, specifications apply between 0°C and +45°C (+32°F to +113°F) at a maximum altitude of 2000 m. These conditions assume a -24 Vdc supply, a 10 kΩ load, a Bently Nevada AISI 4140 steel target (31 mm diameter or larger), and a probe gap of 1.0 mm (40 mils). The system accuracy specifications do not apply when using any target other than Bently Nevada AISI 4140 steel.
Mechanical and Environmental Ratings
The Proximitor Sensor housing uses A380 aluminum and weighs 255 g (9 oz). Operating temperature ranges from -52°C to +100°C (-62°F to +212°F). Storage temperature spans -52°C to +105°C (-62°F to +221°F). Relative humidity can reach 100% condensing. However, the unit is non‑submersible when connectors are protected. It has passed IEC 68‑2‑3 damp heat testing.
Installation and Mounting Flexibility
Furthermore, the 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor offers two mounting methods. You can install it on a high‑density DIN‑rail or use the traditional panel mount configuration. SpringLoc terminal strips simplify electrical connections. Specifically, no special tools are needed for wiring. This saves significant installation time. Meanwhile, the RFI/EMI immunity eliminates extra shielding or special grounding. Consequently, total installation costs stay lower.
Why Choose the Bently Nevada 330980-50-05?
First, this sensor delivers reliable performance in harsh industrial environments like turbines and compressors. Second, its wide temperature range supports extreme applications. Third, multiple agency approvals (option 05) ensure global regulatory compliance. Moreover, the thin form factor saves valuable panel space. Additionally, the Bently Nevada 330980-50-05 maintains stable output despite power supply fluctuations. Therefore, you receive accurate proximity measurements without frequent recalibration.

The total system length is 5.0 meters (16.4 feet), which includes the extension cable.
2. Which probes work with this NSv Proximitor Sensor?
It accepts one non‑contacting 3300 RAM or 3300 NSv proximity probe plus an extension cable.
3. Does the 3300 XL NSv Proximitor Sensor require special tools for wiring?
No. SpringLoc terminal strips eliminate the need for special installation tools.
4. Is CE mark approval possible without extra mounting hardware?
Yes. Improved RFI/EMI immunity allows CE mark achievement without any special mounting considerations.
5. What happens if I operate above -23.5 Vdc?
Operation at a more positive voltage than -23.5 Vdc may result in reduced linear range. Always verify your power supply.
