Technical Specifications

Installation & Maintenance

1. Mechanical Mounting: The 330104-00-08-50-02-00 is equipped with a 80mm armored case and M10x1 threads. Its compact 0.131 kg weight allows for stable mounting without overloading sensor brackets. Ensure the armor is positioned to protect the cable from abrasive contact during installation.

2. Electrical Integration: Power the system with a stabilized 24 VDC supply. The high insulation resistance (1000 MΩ) ensures superior signal-to-noise ratios, allowing for accurate displacement measurements even in presence of moderate electromagnetic interference.

3. Dynamic Reliability: Designed for longevity, the cable supports a flex life of 1,000,000 cycles at a 20 mm radius. To maintain this performance, avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius and ensure the ClickLoc connector is securely engaged to prevent signal loss.

Engineering Advantages

The 3300 XL 8mm system provides industry-leading linearity and temperature stability. This specific model’s 0.131 kg lightweight design, combined with its high insulation resistance, makes it a preferred choice for monitoring radial vibration and axial thrust on medium-to-large machinery. The integrated armor adds a critical layer of defense, making it suitable for environments where cable physical protection is a priority.

Technical FAQs

Q1: Does the 0.131 kg weight include the armored cable?
A1: Yes, 0.131 kg is the approximate net weight for the probe assembly, including the integrated 5.0-meter armored lead cable.

Q2: What is the benefit of the armor on this model?
A2: The armor prevents the coaxial cable from being crushed, cut, or damaged by metal shavings and external mechanical forces common in industrial machinery casings.

Q3: Can this probe be used with an 8-meter system?
A3: No. The "50" code indicates this is a 5.0-meter total length system. It must be paired with a 3300 XL Proximitor calibrated for a 5.0-meter electrical length.
