Structural Features: Cylindrical 8mm diameter probe body with M10×1 threaded mounting section. The probe features an integrated cable with a ClickLoc connector at the cable end for connection to the extension cable. The probe tip is molded with PPS for mechanical protection and electrical insulation.
Working Principle: The probe contains a high-frequency oscillating coil (typical center frequency 1-2 MHz) at its tip. When positioned near a conductive metal target (the rotating shaft), the alternating magnetic field induces eddy currents on the shaft surface. These eddy currents generate a counter magnetic field that interacts with the probe coil, changing its effective impedance. The impedance change is directly proportional to the gap between the probe tip and the shaft surface. The Proximitor electronics demodulate this impedance change into a DC voltage output that is linearly proportional to the gap distance. Static gap changes produce DC voltage shifts (displacement measurement), while dynamic gap variations produce AC voltage superimposed on the DC level (vibration measurement).
Installation Requirements:
- Mount the probe in a standard M10×1 threaded bracket or bearing housing
- Use a torque wrench set to 1.7 to 2.3 N·m for final tightening
- Ensure the probe is perpendicular to the shaft surface with angular deviation within 3°
- The total system cable length (probe + extension cable) must be exactly 5.0 m or 9.0 m
- Connect to a compatible 3300 XL Proximitor (e.g., 330180 series) via the extension cable
- Adjust the static gap to produce a Proximitor output of -10.0 Vdc ± 0.2 Vdc
- Route signal cables at least 30 cm away from high-voltage power cables
- Shield grounding must be single-point only (at the Proximitor or monitor end)
Usage Notes:
- The target surface must be AISI 4140 steel or a material for which the Proximitor has been specifically calibrated
- The target surface must be smooth, clean, and free of oil, paint, or plating; surface roughness better than 1.6 μm
- Never power on or replace the probe while the system is energized
- Verify cable integrity and connector tightness during each maintenance interval
- The CN suffix confirms Chinese market compliance; verify local certification requirements before installation
- Gap voltage adjustment must be performed with the machine at rest (cold state)
