Functional Description
The 330103‑00‑06‑05‑02‑05 probe uses an eddy‑current sensing coil to detect the distance between the probe tip and a conductive target surface, typically a rotating shaft. Its improved electromagnetic shielding allows installation in non‑metallic housings without performance degradation. The ClickLoc connector ensures secure attachment to extension cables, preventing accidental loosening under vibration.
The probe is optimized for use with the 3300 XL Proximitor sensor, forming a calibrated measurement chain that delivers stable displacement and vibration readings across a wide temperature range.
Applications
FAQ
Q: Can this probe be mixed with older 7200 series components? A: No. Mixing 3300 XL probes with older systems results in incorrect calibration and is not recommended.
Q: Does the probe require metallic conduit for CE compliance? A: No. Its enhanced RFI/EMI immunity allows installation in fiberglass or non‑metallic housings.
Q: Is the probe suitable for high‑temperature zones?
