Performance Parameters The probe delivers a linear voltage output proportional to gap distance. The 05 agency approval option ensures compliance with international hazardous area standards. The 50 mm case length provides additional mounting depth for applications requiring greater probe body engagement.
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 50 mm overall case length provides a robust mounting body for applications requiring deeper thread engagement. The 0.5 meter cable length is suitable for direct connection to nearby monitoring equipment. The M10 × 1 metric thread ensures compatibility with standard metric probe mounts.
Working Principle The probe operates on the eddy-current principle, generating a high-frequency electromagnetic field at the probe tip. The presence of a conductive target induces eddy currents that alter the coil impedance. This change is processed by the Proximitor sensor into a DC voltage proportional to the physical gap.
Installation Requirements
- Install perpendicular to the target surface
- Use M10 × 1 thread for secure mounting
- Set initial gap to produce -9 Vdc to -10 Vdc
- Follow hazardous area installation guidelines for CSA, ATEX, and IECEx compliance
- Maintain proper shield grounding
- Observe cable bend radius specifications
Usage Precautions
- Hazardous area certifications require use with compatible certified system components
- Do not install in environments exceeding the approved temperature range
- Verify all connections are secure before energizing the system
- Regular inspection of connector integrity is required in harsh environments
- The probe must be part of a complete 3300 XL transducer system
