Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the purpose of the 330130-045-01-05?
It connects a 3300 XL proximity probe to a 3300 XL Proximitor® Sensor, forming part of the calibrated transducer system used for shaft vibration and position monitoring.
2. What does the "045" option indicate?
It specifies a 4.5-meter (14.8-foot) cable length.
3. What does the "01" option indicate?
It specifies an armored cable, providing additional protection against mechanical damage in demanding industrial environments.
4. What does the "05" approval option mean?
The 05 suffix indicates CSA, ATEX, and IECEx hazardous-area approvals, making the cable suitable for certified hazardous locations.
5. Can this cable be used with any 3300 XL probe?
Yes, provided the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor® Sensor are matched to achieve the required calibrated system length (typically 5 m or 9 m).
6. Why is cable length important?
The 3300 XL transducer system is factory calibrated for a specific total electrical length. Using the correct extension cable ensures accurate vibration and displacement measurements.
7. What are the benefits of the armored version?
The armored construction provides increased resistance to crushing, abrasion, and mechanical impact, making it well suited for installations in cable trays, conduits, and harsh industrial environments.
8. Is the cable compatible with API 670 systems?
Yes. When used as part of a correctly configured 3300 XL Proximity Transducer System, it supports installations designed to meet API 670 requirements.
