3300 XL  Proximity Transducer System Introduction

The 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Transducer System consists of: 3300 XL 8 mm probe,3300 XL extension cable ，3300 XL Proximitor Sensor.

3300 XL 8 mm components are both electrically and physically interchangeable with non-XL 3300 5 mm and 8 mm components. Although the packaging of the 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor differs from its predecessor, its design fits in the same 4-hole mounting pattern when used with the 4-hole mounting base, and will fit within the same mounting space specifications (when minimum permissible cable bend radius is observed).

Mixing XL and non-XL 3300-series 5 mm and 8 mm system components limits system performance to the specifications for the nonXL 3300 5 mm and 8 mm Transducer System.The 3300-series 5 mm probe (refer to Document 141605) uses smaller physical packaging, but does not reduce the side view clearances or tip-to-tip spacing requirements as compared to an 8mm probe. It is used when physical (not electrical) constraints preclude the use of an 8 mm probe.

When your application requires narrow side view probes, use the 3300 NSv Proximity Transducer System (refer to Document 147385).8 mm probes provide a thicker encapsulation of the probe coil in the molded PPS plastic probe tip. This results in a more rugged probe. The larger diameter of the probe body also provides a stronger, more robust case. We recommend that you use 8 mm probes when possible to provide optimal robustness against physical abuse.
