Installation & Setup Guidance
Use the 3/8-24 UNF thread with a maximum thread engagement of 0.563 in. Apply a maximum connector torque of 0.565 N·m. The probe seals differential pressure with a Viton O-ring. This 5-meter probe must be used with a 5-meter Proximitor sensor only.
Maintenance & Reliability
The patented TipLoc molding secures the probe tip, while CableLoc provides 330 N pull strength. An optional FluidLoc cable prevents oil leakage through the cable interior. The probe withstands temperatures up to +232°C (T1) and physical abuse thanks to the 8 mm PPS tip encapsulation.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
Verify total probe length (5.0 m) and thread type (3/8-24 UNF) before ordering. The 330191-00-16-50-00 comes in new original factory packing with a 12-month warranty. For reliable supply, PLC Source PRO stocks this Bently Nevada probe and can assist with compatibility questions.
