Key Features
Non-Contact Eddy-Current Measurement
The probe uses eddy-current technology to accurately measure shaft displacement without physical contact, minimizing wear while providing reliable long-term performance.
Compact 5 mm Probe Design
Its small-diameter sensing tip is well suited for installations with limited mounting space while maintaining excellent measurement accuracy.
ClickLoc™ Connector
The integrated ClickLoc™ connector provides a secure, vibration-resistant cable connection that helps prevent loosening in high-vibration environments.
Rugged Stainless Steel Construction
Manufactured from stainless steel, the probe is designed to withstand harsh industrial environments, including exposure to oil, moisture, and contaminants.
Hazardous-Area Certifications
The -05 approval option includes CSA, ATEX, and IECEx certifications, allowing installation in approved hazardous locations when installed according to the applicable standards.
System Compatibility
The probe is designed for use with:
-
330130 Series Extension Cable
-
3300 5 mm Proximitor® Sensor
These components are factory calibrated as a complete transducer system to ensure specified accuracy.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the primary function of the 330171-00-16-05-02-05?
It provides non-contact measurement of shaft vibration and position for machinery protection and condition monitoring.
2. What type of sensing technology does it use?
It uses eddy-current proximity sensing, which measures conductive target displacement without physical contact.
3. What does the "-05" approval option indicate?
The final -05 designates Multiple Approvals, including CSA, ATEX, and IECEx hazardous-area certifications.
4. Is this probe compatible with the 3300 XL 8 mm system?
No. The 330171 5 mm probe is designed specifically for the 3300 5 mm Transducer System and is not interchangeable with the 3300 XL 8 mm system.
5. Which extension cable should be used?
It should be paired with a compatible 330130 Series Extension Cable of the correct electrical length.
6. What industries commonly use this probe?
It is widely used in:
-
Oil & Gas
-
Power Generation
-
Petrochemical
-
Mining
-
Pulp & Paper
-
Marine
-
General Industrial rotating machinery
7. Can it be used in hazardous areas?
Yes. With the -05 approval option, it is certified for installation in approved hazardous locations when installed according to the applicable certification requirements.
8. Does the probe include a Proximitor® Sensor?
No. The probe is supplied separately and must be used with a compatible 3300 5 mm Proximitor® Sensor and extension cable to form a complete transducer system.
