Hardware Specifications

Functional Description

This probe uses eddy‑current transducer technology to deliver a proportional voltage output relative to shaft displacement. The armored cable design enhances mechanical protection, making it suitable for rugged industrial environments. Its linear range of 2 mm (80 mils) and 200 mV/mil sensitivity ensure accurate monitoring of both static and dynamic shaft behavior.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the 330102‑00‑30‑10‑02‑00 be hot‑swapped? A: No. Probes must be disconnected only when the system is de‑energized to preserve calibration integrity.

Q: Is it interchangeable with other 3300 XL probes? A: Yes. It is fully compatible with standard 3300 XL extension cables and Proximitor sensors without requiring bench recalibration.

Q: What applications are typical? A: Radial vibration, axial thrust position, and speed/phase reference measurements on turbomachinery.

Field Installation Guidelines

• Do not cut or modify the armored probe cable; factory termination preserves calibration.
• Maintain proper bend radius to avoid altering coaxial geometry.
• Route cables away from high‑frequency switching conductors to reduce induced noise.
• Ensure ClickLoc connector is fully seated before energizing the system.
• Confirm installation practices comply with site standards for vibration monitoring systems.
