Description

330878-90-00: 3300 XL 50 mm Proximitor Sensor configured for 9.0 meters (29.5 feet) system length, panel mounting, and no agency approvals.

The 3300 XL 50 mm proximity transducer system consists of a separate 50 mm probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor. It offers a maximum linear range of 27.9 mm (1100 mils) to measure differential expansion (DE) or rotor expansion (RX) on large steam turbine generators. Unlike variants with option codes -50 or -51 (5.0 m system length) or those configured for DIN-rail mounting (options -51 and -91), this panel-mounted 9.0-meter option (90) matches with a 1.0 m probe and an 8.0 m extension cable, or a 9.0 m total calibration length. The -00 agency option specifies a configuration where hazardous area certifications are not required.

Features

  • Option 90 specifies a 9.0-meter system length calibrated for panel mounting configurations.
  • Option 00 specifies a configuration with no agency approvals.
  • Linear range of 27.9 mm (1100 mils) starting at approximately 1.3 mm (50 mils) from target.
  • Average scale factor of 394 mV/mm (10 mV/mil) nominal.
  • Deviation from best fit straight line is within plus-minus 0.74 mm (plus-minus 29 mils).
  • SpringLoc terminal strips facilitate faster, high-density field wiring connections.

Applications

  • Differential expansion (DE) measurements on steam turbine generators
  • Rotor expansion (RX) monitoring
  • Large turbine rotors or oversized target axial position tracking

Installation Guidelines

The Proximitor Sensor utilizes SpringLoc terminal strips requiring no special tools for field wiring, supporting conductors from 0.2 to 1.5 mm2 (16 to 24 AWG). A three-conductor shielded triad cable is recommended for signal routing. When installing, ensure that the total system length (9.0 meters) corresponds precisely to the probe and extension cable combined lengths. The panel mount bracket is secured to the panel using the mounting holes provided in the base plate.

FAQ

What is the function of the Bently Nevada 330878-90-00 Proximitor Sensor?

This sensor is part of the 3300 XL 50 mm Proximity Transducer System. It generates a dynamic output signal proportional to the distance between the probe tip and a target, primarily used for measuring differential expansion (DE) or rotor expansion (RX) on steam turbines.

What is the total system length and mounting configuration of this specific model?

The 330878-90-00 is configured with Option 90, which specifies a 9.0-meter total system length and a panel-mounting bracket.

Does the 330878-90-00 sensor carry any hazardous area agency approvals?

No, the Option 00 suffix indicates that this specific configuration is supplied with no agency approvals.

What type of field wiring and terminals does the Proximitor sensor use?

It features SpringLoc terminal strips that require no special installation tools and support wire sizes from 0.2 to 1.5 mm2 (16 to 24 AWG). A three-conductor shielded triad cable is recommended.
