Installation Guidelines
-
Connector Handling: Use the gold-plated ClickLoc connectors. These are designed for finger-tight installation only. A distinct "click" indicates the connector is properly locked; do not use tools to tighten.
-
Wiring: Use 3-conductor shielded triad cable (16 to 24 AWG). The maximum distance between the Proximitor sensor and the monitoring system is 305 meters (1,000 feet).
-
Grounding: To prevent ground loops and electrical noise, ensure the cable shield is grounded at the monitor end only. Never ground both ends of the shield.
-
Handling: As a precision transducer, ensure the probe tip is free from debris and protected from physical impact during installation.
FAQ
What is the primary function of this probe?
This probe uses eddy current technology to measure radial and axial shaft displacement, providing critical data for vibration analysis and machinery protection.
Is this probe compatible with older systems?
The 3300 XL series is designed for high performance and is generally compatible with legacy 3300 systems; however, it is recommended to use it with a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor to ensure full RFI/EMI immunity and optimal signal integrity.
What is the system output?
The 3300 XL 8 mm system provides a standard output of 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil).
