FAQ
Q1: What is the primary function of the 330103-00-14-10-12-05 probe?
A1: It measures shaft vibration and position by converting displacement into a proportional voltage signal.
Q2: How does it differ from the armored 330104 version?
A2: The 330103 is unarmored, while the 330104 includes stainless steel armor for cable protection.
Q3: Is this probe compliant with API 670?
A3: Yes, it meets API 670 (4th Edition) requirements for linear range, accuracy, and mechanical design.
Q4: Can it be mixed with other 3300 XL probes and sensors?
A4: Yes, the probe is fully interchangeable with other 3300 XL system components without recalibration.
Q5: What environments is this probe suitable for?
A5: It is certified for hazardous areas with CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals.
Q6: How does the FluidLoc cable improve performance?
A6: The FluidLoc design prevents moisture ingress, ensuring measurement stability and reducing failures.
Q7: What is the typical linear range of this probe?
A7: The 8 mm probe typically provides a linear range of up to 2 mm with high accuracy.
Q8: How is the probe installed on machinery?
A8: It uses an M10 × 1 threaded case for mounting, with optional mounting brackets or housings.
Q9: What materials are used in construction?
A9: Stainless steel case (AISI 303/304), PPS tip, and Viton® O-ring sealing.
