The stainless steel case and PPS tip withstand harsh conditions, while the temperature range up to +177°C supports high-temperature bearing housings. The high sensitivity of the 3300 system benefits from the 5mm probe's accurate gap control, ensuring reliable data for predictive maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Mounting Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen mounting the 330172-16-42-10-01-00, use a 1\/4-28 tap and a #3 or larger tap drill for the mounting hole. Apply 5.1 N·m (45 in·lb) torque when seating the probe, with a maximum of 7.3 N·m (65 in·lb). For connector-to-connector torque, the maximum is 0.565 N·m (0.42 ft·lbf). Maintain a minimum cable bend radius of 25.4 mm (1.0 in) to protect the FEP-insulated triaxial cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance \u0026amp; Reliability\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eExposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) can cause premature failure of the pressure seal, so avoid such conditions. The cable's minimum bend radius must be respected during routing. Periodically check the connector torque and inspect the probe tip for debris. The tensile strength of 222 N (50 lbf) ensures durability under normal vibration loads, but proper mounting reduces stress and extends service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSelection Guide \u0026amp; Purchasing Advice\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerify your existing system requirements before selecting the Bently Nevada 330172-16-42-10-01-00. Confirm the unthreaded length, overall case length, total length, connector style, and agency approval options match your original specification. The cable lengths offered for the 3300 series are 0.5, 1, 2, 5, or 9 meters.
