Quick Detail

Description

The 330102-04-16-10-02-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is a highly reliable eddy-current sensing device designed for demanding machinery monitoring applications. As a core component of the XL series, the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe delivers stable, precise, and long-term performance in environments where accurate vibration and position measurements are essential. Built for modern turbomachinery protection, the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe fully aligns with API 670 requirements, ensuring compliance in areas such as mechanical layout, linear operating range, temperature behavior, and overall measurement accuracy.

A major strength of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe lies in its complete interchangeability with other components in the 3300 XL system. Probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors can be mixed freely without the need for matched sets or calibration adjustments. This plug-and-play compatibility simplifies both installation and maintenance. Additionally, the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe remains backward compatible with earlier non-XL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm transducer components, making it an excellent choice for upgrading older monitoring systems without requiring full system replacement.

The mechanical design of the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe incorporates several patented technologies that enhance durability. Its TipLoc molding process creates a reinforced bond between the probe’s tip and body, improving resistance to vibration and thermal cycling. The robust CableLoc construction provides up to 330 N (75 lbf) of pull strength, securing the connection between the probe cable and probe head. For applications exposed to oils or lubricants, an optional FluidLoc cable prevents fluid migration through the cable interior, protecting internal system electronics.

With a thicker coil encapsulation and a larger, more rugged probe body, the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe provides superior mechanical strength compared to smaller-diameter probes. Whenever space allows, selecting the 8 mm version ensures better resistance to physical damage and long-term operational reliability. These design advantages make the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe a preferred choice for critical rotating machinery in oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation industries.

Applications

The 330102-04-16-10-02-00 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is widely used in machinery protection and condition monitoring applications across critical industrial environments. Designed with a 2 mm (80 mils) linear range and a highly stable electrical output, it is ideally suited for measuring shaft vibration, radial position, and axial displacement on rotating machinery such as turbines, compressors, pumps, and motors. Its wide operating temperature range from –52°C to +177°C (–62°F to +350°F) allows reliable performance in harsh environments typically found in oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation facilities.

The compact form factor—with a minimum unthreaded length of 0.4 in and a 1.6 in case length—enables installation in confined spaces, while the miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector ensures secure and vibration-resistant connections. With low supply sensitivity, 50 Ω output resistance, and typical cable capacitance of 69.9 pF/m, the probe supports accurate, noise-resistant signal transmission essential for API 670–compliant monitoring systems. These capabilities make the 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe an excellent choice for rotor dynamics analysis, thrust position measurement, bearing condition assessment, and predictive maintenance programs where high precision and long-term stability are required.
