The 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor features several enhancements over previous designs, making it suitable for high-density DIN-rail installations. Additionally, it can be mounted in a traditional panel configuration, sharing the same 4-hole mounting footprint as older Proximitor Sensor models. With high immunity to radio frequency interference, it can be installed in fiberglass housings without being affected by nearby radio signals. Furthermore, its mounting base provides electrical isolation, eliminating the need for separate isolator plates.
The 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System consists of:
-One 3300 XL 8 mm probe,
-One 3300 XL extension cable, and
-One 3300 XL Proximitor* Sensor.
The system provides an output voltage that is directly proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the observed conductive surface and can measure both static (position) and dynamic (vibration) values. The system’s primary applications are vibration and position measurements on fluid-film bearing machines, as well as Keyphasor* reference and speed measurements.
The 3300 XL 8 mm system delivers the most advanced performance in our eddy current proximity transducer systems. The standard 3300 XL 8 mm 5-metre system also fully complies with the American Petroleum Institute’s (API) 670 Standard (4th Edition) for mechanical configuration, linear range, accuracy, and temperature stability. All 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer systems provide this level of performance and support complete interchangeability of probes, extension cables, and Proximitor sensors, eliminating the need to match or bench calibrate individual components.
Each 3300 XL 8 mm Transducer System component is backward-compatible and interchangeable4 with other non-XL 3300 series 5 mm and 8 mm transducer system components5. This compatibility includes the 3300 5 mm probe, for applications in which an 8 mm probe is too large for the available mounting space.
