Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 330909-00-99-10-02-00 belongs to the trusted 3300 NSv series of proximity probes. This model specifically offers a 3/8-24 UNF threaded case with integral armor for added cable protection. Its total length reaches 1.0 meter (39 inches), and it uses a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector for secure, quick installation. Furthermore, this sensor provides dependable, non-contact measurement of shaft vibration and position. It is a critical component for predictive maintenance and machine protection systems.Technical Specifications
The 330909-00-99-10-02-00 probe is built for precision and durability. Its case uses AISI304 stainless steel (SST) , while the probe tip is constructed from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) . The cable is a 75 Ω coaxial type with fluoroethylene propylene (FEP) insulation, ensuring signal integrity. For this 1.0-meter version, the DC resistance from the center conductor to the outer conductor (RPROBE) is 5.3 ± 0.7 ohms. Additionally, the probe features a Viton O-ring seal designed to manage differential pressure between the tip and case. However, please note that these probes are not pressure tested before shipment.Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
This sensor operates reliably in demanding conditions. Its operating and storage temperature ranges are both from -52°C to +177°C (-62°F to +351°F) . Nevertheless, avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) for long periods to prevent premature seal failure. For installation, the maximum recommended torque for the 3/8-24 probe case is 11.3 N•m (100 in•lb) , while the maximum rated torque is 33.9 N•m (300 in•lb). For the first three threads, use 7.5 N•m (66 in•lb) . The maximum length of thread engagement is 0.563 inches.Installation Guidelines
When installing the 3300 NSv probe, proper torque application is essential for reliable operation. First, ensure the mounting surface is clean and the threads are undamaged. Then, screw the probe into the housing by hand until it is finger-tight. Next, use a torque wrench to apply the recommended torque of 11.3 N•m to the probe case. For the first three threads, apply a lower torque of 7.5 N•m. Specifically, avoid over-tightening, as this can damage the threads or the internal components. For optimal performance, maintain the correct air gap as specified for your application. Finally, securely fasten the ClickLoc connector to complete the installation.Temperature Classification Schedule
The Bently Nevada 330909 probe meets various temperature classifications for hazardous areas.For EPL Ga and Gc: It covers T1 to T5 classifications from -55°C up to +232°C.For EPL Dc: It offers classifications from T280°C down to T90°C based on the ambient temperature.
Therefore, this probe is versatile for many different operating environments. Additionally, its immunity to 60 Hz magnetic fields up to 300 Gauss is excellent. For instance, at a 1.0 mm gap, the Proximitor sensor output is 0.007, the probe is 0.002, and the extension cable is 0.001 mil pp/gauss.Compliance and Certifications
The 330909-00-99-10-02-00 complies with key international standards. It meets the FCC Part 15 requirements. Furthermore, it adheres to the European Community EMC Directive 2014/30/EU and follows standards EN 61000-6-2 and EN 61000-6-4. This probe is also RoHS compliant, conforming to Directive 2011/65/EU. Consequently, you can use it confidently in industrial environments with strict regulatory demands.Packaging List
