Frequently Asked Questions (QA Format)

Q1: What is the exact linear measurement range?
A1: Approximately 2.0 mm (≈80 mils), which is typical for the “10” line in the 3300 XL 8 mm family.

Q2: What mounting and connector interface does it use?
A2: It mounts with a 3/8‑24 UNF thread and uses a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector (“02” designation).

Q3: How heavy is it per meter?
A3: Around 0.323 kg per meter including the probe and cable.

Q4: What operating temperature range is supported?
A4: From –52 °C up to +177 °C.

Q5: What materials does the probe consist of?
A5: The tip is PPS plastic, and the body/case is stainless steel (grades 303/304).

Q6: Is it compatible with existing 3300 XL systems?
A6: Yes — it is part of the 3300 XL family and supports drop‑in compatibility with module and extension cable components.

Q7: Does it require certification for use?
A7: This variant “00” indicates standard (non‑certified) design; versions with “05” suffix include CSA/ATEX/IECEx approval.

Q8: What is the resistance and cable capacitance?
A8: Resistance is ~7.59 Ω ±0.50 Ω; capacitance is ~69.9 pF per meter.

Q9: What failure modes can this probe help detect?
A9: Shaft misalignment, imbalance, bearing wear, clearance changes, rubbing or eccentric motion.

Q10: Does it need frequent calibration?
A10: Typically no — these probes are stable. Routine maintenance includes checking gap, cable integrity, and connector condition.
