Material Composition
Stainless steel probe body with precision-wound internal coil, TipLoc patented molding technology, CableLoc patented cable retention design, and gold-plated ClickLoc connectors with corrosion-resistant plating.
Structural Characteristics
Identical physical dimensions to the standard 330101-00-08-05-02-00 probe. The multi-approval designation is reflected in the probe’s certification markings and documentation rather than physical appearance.
Working Principle
Operates on the same eddy current principle as all 3300 XL 8mm probes. The probe coil generates a high-frequency magnetic field, and eddy currents induced in the conductive target surface alter the coil impedance proportionally to the gap distance.
Installation Requirements
Same mechanical installation requirements as the standard 330101 probe. Additionally, installation in hazardous areas must comply with the relevant agency approval requirements, including proper use of approved cable glands, barriers, and wiring practices.
Usage Notes
Verify that the specific agency approvals marked on this probe match the requirements of the installation location. The multi-approval probe is functionally identical to the standard probe but carries additional certifications for hazardous area use. Ensure all system components (probe, extension cable, Proximitor) carry compatible agency approvals for the intended installation environment.
