Key Features

The 330106-05-30-50-02-00 provides reliable performance for reverse mount applications. The 5.0 meter cable length allows installation far from monitoring equipment. The M10 x 1 threads enable mounting in metric threaded holes. The miniature ClickLoc® connector ensures secure cable attachment.

The 8.73 Ω nominal DC resistance provides consistent signal transmission over 5.0 meters. The PPS probe tip offers excellent chemical resistance. The AISI 303 or 304 stainless steel case resists corrosion. The probe withstands extreme temperatures from -52°C to +177°C.

The reverse mount design allows installation from the opposite side. This configuration suits tight spaces and specific machine geometries. No agency approvals are required for this version. The 15 mm maximum thread engagement provides installation flexibility.

The Viton® O-ring seals differential pressure effectively. The probe maintains stable performance in high humidity environments. The less than 3% scale factor change after 56 days at 93% humidity demonstrates excellent reliability. The 330 N tensile strength ensures mechanical durability.

Installation Guidelines

Install the 330106-05-30-50-02-00 with proper attention to thread engagement. Do not exceed 15 mm maximum thread engagement. Use M10 x 1 threaded holes for mounting. Hand-tighten the probe into the mounting hole.

Connect the miniature ClickLoc® connector to the extension cable. Push the connector until it clicks into place. Do not use tools on the connector. Hand-tighten only.

Avoid exposing the probe to temperatures below -34°C. This may cause premature pressure seal failure. Contact the custom design department if pressure testing is required. Ensure proper clearance for the reverse mount configuration. Route the 5.0 meter cable away from heat sources and sharp edges.
