Bently Nevada 330708-00-20-50-02-05 11mm Proximity Transducer System – 3300 XL Series
When a critical rotating machine — a gas turbine, steam turbine, or high-speed centrifugal compressor — loses its shaft vibration monitoring capability, the consequences are immediate and severe: undetected rotor instability, catastrophic bearing failure, unplanned shutdowns, and millions of dollars in lost production. The Bently Nevada 330708-00-20-50-02-05 is the precision instrument that stands between normal operation and disaster, delivering continuous, real-time eddy-current proximity measurements that plant protection systems depend on.
Within the globally trusted 3300 XL Series, the 330708-00-20-50-02-05 occupies a well-defined technical niche: an 11 mm diameter probe configured for a 200 mm (20 cm) armored extension cable and a 5-meter (50 dm) interconnect cable, with a standard -02-05 driver/oscillator pairing. This configuration is one of the most widely deployed proximity transducer assemblies in the world, specified by OEMs and end-users across the oil & gas, power generation, and petrochemical industries. Bently Nevada’s 3300 XL platform is the de facto standard for API 670-compliant machinery protection systems globally.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the part number suffix -00-20-50-02-05 mean?
A: In Bently Nevada’s 3300 XL naming convention, the suffixes encode the probe configuration: -00 indicates the standard probe body, -20 specifies the 200 mm extension cable, -50 specifies the 5-meter interconnect cable, and -02-05 identifies the driver/oscillator pairing. Always specify the full part number when ordering to ensure an exact match.
Q: Is this a new or refurbished unit?
A: Konmask.com supplies both new OEM units and certified serviceable units depending on availability. Please specify your requirement when submitting an inquiry and we will confirm the condition and documentation available.
Q: Can this transducer be used with non-Bently Nevada monitors?
A: The 3300 XL proximity transducer system is optimized for use with Bently Nevada monitors. While the output signal (voltage) may be compatible with third-party monitors, we recommend consulting your monitor manufacturer’s documentation and our technical team before cross-brand integration.
