Installation & Setup Guidance
For proper installation of the 330172-00-20-10-02-00, drill and tap a mounting hole using a #3 or larger tap drill for the 1/4-28 thread. Ensure the thread engagement does not exceed 0.375 inches to avoid damage. Tighten the probe case to the recommended torque of 5.1 N·m (45 in·lb), with a maximum of 7.3 N·m (65 in·lb). Use the miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector for secure cable attachment. Avoid bending the cable below the minimum bend radius of 25.4 mm.
Maintenance & Reliability
To maximize the lifespan of the Bently Nevada 330172-00-20-10-02-00, avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) as this may cause premature failure of the pressure seal. The probe operates reliably between -35°C and +177°C. Keep the probe away from strong 60 Hz magnetic fields up to 300 Gauss, which can induce output voltage variations. Regularly inspect the cable for stress at bend points and ensure connector torque stays within 0.565 N·m maximum.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When ordering the 330172-00-20-10-02-00, verify the configuration options: unthreaded length (00 = 0 in), overall case length (20 = 2.0 in), total length (10 = 1.0 meter), connector (02 = miniature coaxial ClickLoc), and agency approval (00 = not required). This probe is designed for use with 3300 series systems. For genuine Bently Nevada 330172-00-20-10-02-00 probes, trust PLC Source PRO to supply the exact model with full specification support.
