• Proximitor Tuning: Interfaces directly with any standard 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor (e.g., 330180) designed for matching overall system length calibrations.
• Chassis Monitoring Interface: Delivers standard linear scale data signals to classic Bently Nevada machinery monitoring frames up to 305 meters away over 3-conductor shielded triad field cables.
• Backward Interchangeability: Fully interchangeable and backward compatible with older, non-XL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm transducer platform systems compliant with API 670 standards.

• Alternative Suffix Version: 3300 XL 8mm Metric Proximity Probe with Standard Cable (Model: 330104-10-15-05-02-05).
• Key Differences:
  • Internal Leak Sealing: The 330104-10-15-05-12-05 incorporates an internal FluidLoc cable matrix to block lubricating oils from migrating or wicking out of the machine housing. The standard 02 variant features a traditional triaxial structure without internal fluid-blocking barriers.
  • Connector Protector Factory Assembly: The 12 connector option provides a standard bare miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector layout without an environmental protector sleeve pre-mounted, while alternative 11 or 01 configurations come factory-fitted with an advanced environmental fluorosilicone connector protector.
