By combining the 3300 XL 8mm probe and the Proximitor sensor within a single ruggedized, glass-reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) housing, it eliminates the need for separate sensor mounting. This design significantly reduces installation complexity while providing superior mechanical protection (IP66) for critical vibration monitoring in rotating assets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGlobal PLC Spare HUB’s Insight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ePROXPAC XL\u003c\/strong\u003e series is the professional choice for environments where external sensor housing is exposed to harsh elements. Our engineering team values this model for its 40mm standoff and 132mm penetration depth, which offers excellent clearance for complex mechanical assemblies. The unit’s \u003cstrong\u003eClickLoc\u003c\/strong\u003e connector and triaxial cabling ensure minimal signal degradation, making it highly reliable for long-distance field wiring up to 305 meters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConfiguration Breakdown\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProbe\/Approval (16):\u003c\/strong\u003e 3300 XL 8mm probe, No approvals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandoff (04):\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 mm Standoff Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePenetration (132):\u003c\/strong\u003e 132 mm Probe Penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFittings (03):\u003c\/strong\u003e One M20 fitting, two plugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Thread (02):\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4-14 NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelection Comparison\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e330881-16-04-132-03-02\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long-penetration (132mm) model with 3\/4-14 NPT threading.
