Performance Overview
Accurate Monitoring for Rotating Equipment
The 330103-00-15-05-01-00 measures the distance between the probe tip and a conductive shaft using advanced eddy current technology. Because the sensing process is completely non-contact, the probe delivers highly accurate vibration and position measurements without introducing mechanical wear.
When installed with a compatible 3300 XL Extension Cable and 3300 XL Proximitor® Sensor, the probe forms a complete transducer system capable of monitoring shaft condition in turbines, compressors, pumps, generators, motors, and other critical rotating assets.
