For a complete system, you must match this probe with the correct length of extension cable (e.g., a 4.0-meter extension cable for a 5.0-meter total system) and a corresponding 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor. Mixing 3300 XL components with older, non-XL 3300 components is technically possible but will result in minor calibration and scale-factor discrepancies (typically altering the standard 200 mV\/mil output).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4 style=\"color: #1a365d; font-size: 1.1rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 0.5rem;\"\u003eApplication Pitfalls \u0026amp; Engineering Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #2d3748; margin-bottom: 1rem;\"\u003eThe unarmored coaxial cable is highly sensitive to physical crushing and sharp bends during installation. Ensure a minimum static bend radius of 25.4 mm (1.0 inch) is maintained throughout the cable run. Grounding loops can compromise signal integrity; prevent the coaxial connector outer shell from making electrical contact with the machine casing or junction box metalwork by using the supplied connector silicone sleeve or Teflon heat-shrink tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4 style=\"color: #1a365d; font-size: 1.1rem; margin-top: 1.5rem; margin-bottom: 0.5rem;\"\u003eCommissioning \u0026amp; Calibration Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #2d3748; margin-bottom: 1rem;\"\u003eDuring mechanical installation, monitor the DC gap voltage directly from the Proximitor Sensor output using a high-impedance digital multimeter. Adjust the physical depth of the probe in the mounting bracket until the DC voltage reads approximately -10.0 VDC, corresponding to the physical midpoint of the linear range (approx. 1.27 mm or 50 mils from the shaft target). Lock the mounting nut to a maximum torque of 13.6 N-m (120 in-lb) to prevent stripping the 3\/8-24 UNF threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #fff5f5; border-left: 4px solid #c53030; padding: 1rem; margin-bottom: 1.5rem;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin: 0; font-weight: bold; color: #9b2c2c;\"\u003eCRITICAL WARNING:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin: 0.5rem 0 0 0; color: #9b2c2c; font-size: 0.95rem;\"\u003eDe-energize the machinery and verify the target area is completely stationary before inserting the probe into the mounting port.
