3. Function and Product Positioning

The 330130-045-00-00 is a high-performance signal transmission cable that extends the reach of 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes while maintaining the system’s precision and stability.

Core Functions

  • Signal Transmission: Transmits low-level eddy current signals from the probe to the proximitor with minimal attenuation or distortion, preserving linearity and accuracy.

  • System Extension: Allows separation between the probe (mounted on machinery) and the proximitor (installed in control panels) up to 4.5 meters, accommodating diverse installation layouts.

  • Environmental Protection: Shields conductors from EMI/RFI interference, oil, moisture, and extreme temperatures, ensuring reliable operation in harsh industrial environments.

  • Mechanical Strain Relief: Patented CableLoc design reinforces connector junctions, resisting pull, vibration, and flexing to prevent cable damage or signal loss.

Operational Features

  • Interchangeability: Fully compatible with all 3300 XL 8 mm probes and proximitors; no component matching or field calibration required.

  • Linear Performance: Maintains system linearity (±0.25% full-scale) over the entire cable length, supporting 0–2.5 mm (0–100 mil) gap measurements.

  • Temperature Stability: Exhibits minimal capacitance drift across operating temperatures, ensuring consistent sensitivity and measurement accuracy.

  • Self-Diagnostics Support: Enables fault detection for open/short circuits and cable damage when used with 3300/3500 monitoring systems.
