This unit functions as an essential signal processing component within an eddy current transducer system. It converts high-frequency RF signals generated by the proximity probe into a proportional output voltage, enabling the measurement of static gap and dynamic rotor vibration. Designed for integration into continuous monitoring systems, the sensor provides linear signal output, which is interpreted by downstream monitoring equipment for rotor dynamics analysis and protective machine shutdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuffix Breakdown\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e330180: 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12: 1.0 meter (3.3 feet) system length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e52: 5.0 meters (16.4 feet) system length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e92: 9.0 meters (29.5 feet) system length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e05: CSA, ATEX, IECEx Approvals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e330180-X2-05 MOD:181634-01\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBently Nevada\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.22 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.8 x 3.5 x 7 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-51 deg C to +100 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-17.5 VDC to -26 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSensor Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA308 aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnector Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGold-plated brass \/ beryllium copper\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBrand-Specific Technical Block\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3300 XL system relies on precise eddy current probe scaling to ensure accuracy. The Proximitor sensor acts as the heart of the transducer loop, maintaining a reference gap voltage, typically centered at -10 VDC. The stability of this reference is critical for maintaining linearity in vibration signal processing. Variations in rotor position change the probe's impedance, which the sensor converts into a -4 V\/mm or -200 mV\/mil output signal. Proper rotor dynamics analysis requires this output to be free of phase shift or distortion, which is guaranteed by the impedance-matched design of the 3300 XL system components (probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x 330180-X2-05 Proximitor Sensor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x DIN rail mounting clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Technical documentation set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrounding: The Proximitor sensor case must be isolated from the machine ground to prevent earth loops, typically achieved through non-conductive mounting plates.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWiring: Use high-quality coaxial cable with the appropriate characteristic impedance; avoid sharp bends that can alter cable impedance and degrade signal quality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShielding: Ensure that the coaxial shield is continuous and correctly terminated at the sensor connector to minimize electromagnetic interference.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackplane\/Mounting: Secure the sensor to a flat surface or DIN rail.
