Technical FAQs

1. What is the primary purpose of this probe?
   It measures shaft vibration and position using eddy current technology.
2. Is this a standalone device?
   No, it must be used with a 3300 XL Proximitor sensor and compatible extension cable.
3. What is the total cable length?
   The total length is 9 meters.
4. Does it require contact with the rotating shaft?
   No, it operates using non-contact eddy current measurement.
5. Why choose the 9-meter version?
   It is ideal for installations where the probe must be located far from monitoring electronics or requires flexible cable routing.
6. Which industries commonly use this probe?
   Power generation, oil & gas, petrochemical, and heavy industrial applications.
7. Can it measure both vibration and displacement?
   Yes, it monitors both static shaft position and dynamic vibration.
8. Is it suitable for harsh industrial conditions?
   Yes, it is designed to withstand high vibration and temperature extremes.
9. Does installation require calibration?
   Yes, correct air gap setup is essential for accurate performance.
10. Can components from other lengths be used interchangeably?
    No, the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor must be matched as a complete system.
