Frequently Asked Questions (QA Style)

1. Q: What does the “90‑05” suffix in the model 330100‑90‑05 mean?
   A: “90” indicates a 9.0‑meter cable length; “05” indicates that the sensor carries multiple agency approvals or certifications for use in various regulatory environments.

2. Q: What is the nominal sensing distance (gap) for this sensor?
   A: The nominal gap is 5 mm (≈0.2 inches).

3. Q: What is the operating temperature range?
   A: From about ‑40 °C up to +85 °C under normal operating conditions.

4. Q: What is the weight of the sensor (probe + cable)?
   A: Approximately 0.29 kg.

5. Q: What kind of output signal does it produce?
   A: Around 200 mV per mil (mil = thousandths of an inch), which corresponds roughly to 7.87 V/mm.

6. Q: Is the sensor designed to be non‑contact?
   A: Yes, it senses without physical contact between probe tip and target.

7. Q: How long is the cable supplied?
   A: The cable length supplied is 9.0 meters (≈29.5 feet).

8. Q: What kinds of environments can it work in?
   A: Environments with moderate to high temperature variation, vibration, and humidity; suitable for industrial machinery including turbines, compressors, motors.

9. Q: What is the physical size of the probe head?
   A: Approximate probe head dimensions are 7.8 cm × 6.0 cm × 6.5 cm.

10. Q: What power or excitation does the sensor require?
    A: It is typically powered with 24 V DC supply (with appropriate negative referencing consistent with 3300 Proximitor style).
