FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
-
What machinery is best suited for this proximity probe?
The probe is designed for critical rotating equipment like turbines, compressors, motors, gearboxes, and pumps. -
How does this probe contribute to machinery protection?
It detects changes in shaft vibration and position, providing early warnings to prevent equipment failures. -
Can this probe be installed in submerged locations?
Yes — the IP68-rated sealing ensures reliable operation under full submersion and in contaminated environments. -
Is this model compatible with legacy 3300 Proximitor systems?
Yes — it is backward compatible with both legacy 3300 and current 3300 XL Proximitor modules. -
How is the probe typically mounted on machinery?
Installed in threaded sleeves or brackets aligned toward the shaft, connected to Proximitor modules via extension cable. -
What cable length options are available?
The 330103-00-11-10-02-05 version comes with an 1 meter cable — other lengths are available in the same series. -
Does the probe require periodic calibration?
Routine checks during scheduled maintenance are recommended, but recalibration frequency is low thanks to its stable performance. -
Is the probe affected by electromagnetic interference?
No — it is designed with EMI/RFI immunity suitable for electrically noisy industrial environments. -
What shaft sizes can be monitored with this 8mm probe?
Suitable for mid- to large-diameter shafts — smaller shafts may use 5mm probes for better sensitivity. -
What is the typical service life of this proximity probe?
With correct installation and operation, the probe can last many years without performance degradation.
