Quick Detail

Description

The 330104-00-08-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe represents a state-of-the-art solution for precision vibration and position monitoring in industrial machinery. Designed with an overall case length of 80 mm and a total system length of 1.0 meter (3.3 feet), this probe delivers reliable, high-performance measurements under demanding conditions. Its unthreaded length of 0 mm and M10 x 1 threaded case, with a maximum thread engagement of 15 mm, allows for flexible installation in tight or complex spaces.

Equipped with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector and a standard cable, the 3300 XL 8 mm probe ensures secure, high-fidelity signal transmission. The probe is CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approved, providing safety and compliance for hazardous environments. Its robust construction utilizes AISI 303 or 304 stainless steel for the probe case, paired with a polyphenylene sulfide probe tip, allowing operation in extreme temperature ranges from -52°C to +177°C (-62°F to +350°F).

The probe system provides an output voltage directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the conductive target surface. This capability enables both static position and dynamic vibration measurements, making it ideal for fluid-film bearing machines. Keyphasor reference and speed measurements are also supported, allowing precise monitoring of rotating equipment. With a linear range of 2 mm (80 mils), the 3300 XL 8 mm probe ensures accurate detection of subtle variations in shaft movement.

A hallmark of the 3300 XL series is complete component interchangeability. Probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors can be replaced without recalibration, saving maintenance time and reducing downtime. The system is fully backward compatible with non-XL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm probes, ensuring seamless integration into existing setups where space or operational requirements vary.

This 3300 XL probe incorporates significant design improvements. The patented TipLoc molding secures a durable bond between the probe tip and body, while the patented CableLoc design ensures a pull strength of 330 N (75 lbf), preventing accidental disconnection. An optional FluidLoc cable further protects against leakage of oils or other machine fluids through the cable interior, enhancing long-term reliability in industrial environments.

With its combination of high accuracy, robust mechanical design, and full interchangeability, the 330104-00-08-10-02-05 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe stands out as a top choice for engineers seeking dependable, high-performance vibration and position monitoring in critical rotating machinery applications.

Applications

Vibration Monitoring in Rotating Machinery

The 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe is ideal for precise vibration monitoring on fluid-film bearing machines and other high-speed rotating equipment. Its eddy current sensing technology allows accurate measurement of both dynamic vibration and static displacement, enabling engineers to detect early signs of mechanical wear, imbalance, misalignment, or bearing defects. With a linear range of 2 mm (80 mils) and stable output proportional to displacement, the probe ensures high-fidelity data critical for predictive maintenance programs.

Position Measurement

This probe system can measure static positions of rotating shafts or other conductive surfaces with high accuracy. Its robust AISI 303/304 stainless steel case and polyphenylene sulfide probe tip withstand extreme operating temperatures from -52°C to +177°C (-62°F to +350°F), making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. The precise position data provided by the 3300 XL 8 mm system is crucial for applications requiring tight clearance monitoring or alignment verification.

Keyphasor Reference and Speed Detection

The 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe supports Keyphasor reference signals, providing synchronized timing pulses for vibration analysis systems. This feature allows for accurate speed and phase measurements in rotating machinery, essential for condition monitoring, rotor balancing, and troubleshooting high-speed equipment. Its miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector and robust CableLoc design ensure reliable signal integrity even in electrically noisy or high-vibration environments.

Interchangeable System Components

One of the major advantages of the 3300 XL series is the full interchangeability of probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors. This eliminates the need for individual calibration or bench matching, simplifying installation and maintenance. The 3300 XL 8 mm probe is fully backward compatible with non-XL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm probes, providing flexibility for applications where an 8 mm probe may be too large or space is limited.

Harsh and Hazardous Environment Operation

With CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals, the 3300 XL 8 mm probe can be safely deployed in explosive or hazardous locations. The optional FluidLoc cable further enhances reliability by preventing leakage of oils or other liquids from the machine through the cable interior, making it suitable for lubrication-intensive environments such as turbines, compressors, and pumps.

High-Density and Compact Installations

The probe’s compact dimensions, including an 80 mm overall case length and 0 mm unthreaded section, allow installation in tight or high-density mounting scenarios. Its M10 x 1 threaded case, with a maximum thread engagement of 15 mm, ensures secure mechanical attachment while maintaining precise alignment with the measured surface.
