Unthreaded Length: The unthreaded length option is 00, which equals 0.0 inches.
Overall Case Length: The overall case length option is 45, signifying a case length of 4.5 inches.
Total Length: The total length option is 10, which corresponds to a 1.0-meter (39 inches) cable.
Connector and Cable: It comes with a miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector and a standard cable, as indicated by option 02.
Agency Approval: This model includes agency approval option 00, which means it is not required for this configuration.
Probe dc Resistance: For a 1.0m probe, the resistance from the center conductor to the outer conductor is 4.2 ± 0.5 ohms.
Cable Specifications: The probe utilizes a 75 Ω coaxial cable with fluoroethylene propylene (FEP) insulation.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
Understanding the mechanical limits and environmental tolerances of the Bently Nevada 330901-00-45-10-02-00 is crucial for proper application.
Case Material: The probe case is manufactured from AISI304 stainless steel (SST), providing excellent corrosion resistance.
Tip Material: The probe tip is made of Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), a durable engineering plastic.
Temperature Range: Its operating and storage temperature range is from -52°C to +177°C (-62°F to +351°F). However, avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C (-30°F) for extended periods to prevent premature seal failure.
Pressure Capability: The 3300 NSv probe is designed to seal differential pressure between the tip and case using a Viton O-ring. Please note that they are not pressure tested before shipment.
Weight: The probe weighs approximately 14 to 150 g (0.5 to 5.3 oz).
Furthermore, the probe has specific temperature classifications for use in hazardous areas:
For EPL Ga and Gc: T1 (-55°C to +232°C), T2 (-55°C to +177°C), T3 (-55°C to +120°C), T4 (-55°C to +80°C), T5 (-55°C to +40°C).
For EPL Dc: T280°C (-55°C to +232°C), T225°C (-55°C to +177°C), T170°C (-55°C to +120°C), T130°C (-55°C to +80°C), T105°C (-55°C to +100°C), T90°C (-55°C to +40°C).
Installation Guidance
Proper installation ensures the longevity and accuracy of the 330901-00-45-10-02-00.
Torque Requirements: The maximum rated torque for the probe case is 33.9 N•m (300 in•lb) , while the recommended torque is 11.3 N•m (100 in•lb) . For the first three threads, the maximum is 22.6 N•m (200 in•lb) and the recommended is 7.5 N•m (66 in•lb) .
Thread Engagement: The maximum length of thread engagement for a 3/8-24 thread is 0.563 inches.
Connector Torque: Always follow the connector-to-connector torque specifications for the ClickLoc connector to ensure a secure and reliable connection.
Cable Handling: Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable to prevent damage to the FEP insulation and the internal conductor. The total length option 10 provides a 1.0-meter cable, which is ideal for many standard installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Can the Bently Nevada 330901-00-45-10-02-00 probe be used in a high-temperature environment?
A: Yes, it can operate in temperatures up to +177°C (+351°F). However, please check the specific temperature classification for your hazardous area to ensure compliance.
Q2: What is the difference between the "unthreaded length" and "overall case length" for this 3300 NSv model?
A: The unthreaded length is the length of the probe tip that is not threaded, which is 0.0 inches for this specific model. The overall case length is the total length of the metallic case, which is 4.5 inches.
Q3: What is the purpose of the ClickLoc connector on the 330901-00-45-10-02-00?
A: The miniature coaxial ClickLoc connector provides a secure and quick connection for the probe cable. It ensures a reliable electrical connection and helps prevent accidental disconnection during operation.
Q4: How do I determine the correct torque for installing the 330901-00-45-10-02-00 probe?
A: The recommended torque for the probe case is 11.3 N•m (100 in•lb). For the first three threads, use 7.5 N•m (66 in•lb). Never exceed the maximum rated torque to avoid damaging the probe or the mounting hole.
Q5: Is the probe cable included with the 330901-00-45-10-02-00, and what is its length?
A: Yes, the cable is included. The total length option 10 means the probe comes with a 1.0-meter (39 inches) integrated cable.
