Product Overview
Designed for Reliable Shaft Monitoring in Critical Assets
The 330103-00-10-05-02-CN uses advanced eddy current sensing technology to measure the gap between the probe tip and a conductive shaft surface without physical contact. This measurement method provides accurate dynamic and static readings, allowing operators to monitor machine health conditions such as shaft vibration, rotor displacement, and mechanical instability.
When integrated with a compatible 3300 XL Extension Cable and 3300 XL Proximitor® Sensor, the probe forms a complete vibration and position monitoring system suitable for high-value rotating equipment.
Common equipment applications include:
-
Steam turbines
-
Gas turbines
-
Centrifugal compressors
-
Pumps
-
Electric motors
-
Generators
