Performance Parameters The probe delivers a linear output voltage proportional to the gap between the probe tip and the observed conductive surface. The 05 agency approval option certifies the probe for use in hazardous environments, ensuring compliance with international safety standards.

Material Composition

  • Probe Tip: Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS)
  • Probe Case: AISI 303 or 304 stainless steel
  • Cable: FEP insulated triaxial cable
  • Connector: Gold-plated miniature coaxial ClickLoc

Structural Characteristics The 30 mm case length with M10 × 1 threading simplifies installation in confined spaces. The 1.0 meter integral cable terminates in a ClickLoc connector with connector protector. The hazardous area certifications make this probe suitable for installation in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Working Principle The probe uses eddy-current technology to detect the position of a conductive target. A high-frequency signal from the Proximitor is applied to the probe coil, creating an electromagnetic field. The proximity of a metal target induces eddy currents that modify the field, and this change is converted into a proportional voltage signal.

Installation Requirements

  • Follow hazardous area installation procedures per CSA, ATEX, and IECEx requirements
  • Mount perpendicular to the target surface
  • Set gap to achieve -9 Vdc to -10 Vdc output
  • Use compatible 3300 XL extension cables and Proximitor sensors
  • Ensure proper grounding and shielding
  • Install connector protectors for environmental sealing

Usage Precautions

  • Verify hazardous area certification markings before installation
  • Do not substitute non-certified components in hazardous area applications
  • Maintain proper cable routing to avoid mechanical damage
  • Regularly inspect connector integrity in harsh environments
  • The probe must be part of a complete 3300 XL system for certified operation
