Model Code Explanation
330103: 3300 XL 8mm series probe with M10×1 metric thread and non-armored cable05: Unthreaded length 50mm10: Total probe housing length 100mm10: Integral built-in cable length 1.0m02: ClickLoc miniature coaxial connector with double shielded standard cable05: Certified version for hazardous explosive area applications
Product Positioning
Complying with API 670 standard, this 3300 XL proximity probe features excellent linearity, temperature stability and EMC anti-interference performance. Interchangeable with same-series extension cables and proximitors without additional calibration, the stainless steel hermetically sealed housing and high-temperature resistant PPS tip enable stable long-term operation under harsh on-site conditions including high temperature, oil contamination, dust and strong electromagnetic interference. It captures dynamic vibration and static displacement signals to realize early fault warning of shaft unbalance, bearing wear and axial collision, serving as the core front-end sensing device of machinery safety monitoring system.
Hardware Architecture
Consisting of four core units: high-frequency induction coil detecting unit, high-temperature sealed protection unit, double-shielded signal transmission unit and factory calibrated impedance matching unit. The high-frequency alternating magnetic field generated by the internal coil induces eddy current on the measured metal target surface, converting clearance variation into linear DC voltage signal for high-precision non-contact displacement measurement.

IV. Working Principle
The proximitor outputs high-frequency alternating excitation current to the internal coil of the probe, forming an alternating magnetic field which induces eddy current on the metal target surface. The equivalent impedance of the coil changes linearly with the clearance between probe tip and measured surface. The proximitor converts impedance variation into linear negative DC voltage signal and transmits it to the 3500 monitoring module. Vibration and axial displacement will cause real-time clearance change and voltage fluctuation, which is converted into physical displacement parameters for data trending, threshold alarm and safety interlock. With factory impedance and sensitivity calibration, double-shielded cable and hermetic sealing design, the sensor maintains stable measuring performance against temperature change, oil contamination and electromagnetic interference.
V. Application Scenarios
- TSI safety monitoring for thermal and gas turbine generator units, including shaft vibration, axial displacement, rotating speed and key phase protection.
- Vibration and displacement online monitoring for petrochemical centrifugal compressors and expanders to realize surge and bearing fault early warning.
- Condition monitoring for metallurgical large fans and blast furnace air supply equipment to avoid catastrophic blade and bearing failures.
- Predictive maintenance of large water pumps and turbo power equipment to reduce unplanned shutdown risk.
- Technical renovation and in-situ spare part replacement of monitoring probes in hazardous explosive process facilities.
