Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does this probe comply with API 670 standard?
Yes. The 3300 XL 8 mm system, including this model, fully complies with API 670 requirements for mechanical design, linear range, accuracy, and temperature stability.

What applications is this probe designed for?
It is primarily used for vibration and position monitoring of fluid-film bearing machinery, Keyphasor reference signals, and speed measurements.

Is the probe compatible with older 3300 series systems?
Yes. It is both electrically and physically compatible with non-XL 3300 5 mm and 8 mm system components.
