The Bently Nevada 3300/20 Axial Position Monitor is a dedicated monitoring module within the 3300 Series machinery protection system. It is engineered to perform precise, continuous measurement of shaft axial displacement, commonly referred to as thrust position. By monitoring the proximity of the shaft to the thrust bearing, this module provides critical data for rotating equipment such as large steam turbines, gas compressors, and centrifugal pumps, enabling early identification of mechanical wear or potential catastrophic failure.
This module is specifically utilized in critical rotating machinery protection schemes. Common applications include monitoring thrust bearing health in industrial turbines, axial movement tracking in heavy-duty compressors, and general axial position oversight in high-speed rotating equipment where precise clearance maintenance is essential for operational safety.

The 3300/20 monitor tracks the axial position of a machine shaft relative to its thrust bearing. It translates proximity probe signals into readable displacement values and triggers alarms if the movement exceeds safe operational thresholds.
Yes, the 01 input option is specifically configured to interface with standard Bently Nevada Proximitor sensors used in 3300 series monitoring systems.
The LEDs provide a quick status check: 'OK' indicates the sensor and module are functioning correctly, 'Bypass' shows the alarm logic is inhibited, while 'Alert' and 'Danger' indicate that the measured shaft displacement has reached or exceeded pre-programmed safety levels.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
