FAQ
Q1: How do I set the correct probe-to-shaft gap?
A1: Use a standardized feeler gauge set to establish the recommended clearance between the tip and shaft during setup.
Q2: Can the probe handle rapid rotational changes?
A2: Yes, the probe maintains accuracy across the rated speed range for 3300 XL series systems.
Q3: Any tips for avoiding signal interference during installation?
A3: Route the cable away from electrical noise sources, ensure proper shielding and grounding, and maintain firm cable connections.
Q4: How do I test probe function after installation?
A4: Use the system’s self-test and verify Keyphasor® pulse and vibration signals for correctness.
Q5: Is the PPS tip compatible with different shaft materials?
A5: Yes, PPS is compatible with all standard target alloys used in the 3300 XL system.
Q6: Is there a quick way to confirm Keyphasor® output accuracy?
A6: Monitor signal timing under stable conditions and compare against known reference pulses.
Q7: Can the cable be extended beyond 5 m if needed?
A7: Longer cables may cause signal attenuation.
Q8: What error patterns suggest probe wear or failure?
A8: Irregular pulses, signal dropouts, or noise spikes typically indicate probe or cable degradation.
Q9: Does replacing the probe require system recalibration?
A9: No—3300 XL probes are designed for plug-and-play replacement without recalibration.
Q10: How do I deal with probe signal issues once installed?
A10: Check the mounting gap, cable integrity, grounding, and avoid route near electromagnetic interference.
