By routing the Tefzel-jacketed leads to a dry external junction box, the plant eliminated moisture-related signal drift and restored stable baseline vibration readings. Always confirm the ClickLoc connector remains in a dry atmosphere above the maximum fluid line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ: Why is this submersible probe explicitly not recommended for salt-water or marine environments?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The casing is constructed from 304 Stainless Steel, which suffers pitting corrosion and stress corrosion cracking when exposed to chloride-rich salt water over extended periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ: Can the entire length of the cable and ClickLoc connector be submerged under water or oil?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No, only the probe casing and Tefzel tubing section are liquid-sealed; the ClickLoc connector end is unsealed and must remain in a dry, un-submerged location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ: What is the benefit of the connector protector supplied with option -01?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The elastomeric protector slips over the ClickLoc junction to shield the gold-plated pins from dust, high ambient humidity, and incidental oil splatters inside the dry junction box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ: How do I verify if a probe pressure seal has failed after high-pressure nitrogen or oil exposure?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Disconnect the probe from the extension cable and inspect the internal Tefzel tubing cavity for fluid accumulation or measure insulation resistance between center conductor and outer shield (drops below 100 MΩ when flooded).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ: How do I choose between a 1.5-meter total length probe and a 9.0-meter total length probe for submerged installations?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Measure the distance from the submerged mounting point to the dry external casing wall. If the dry junction box sits within 1.5 meters of the machine penetration, choose the 1.5m model; if routing continuously out of a deep pit or sump directly to a monitor cabinet without an internal splice, select a 9.0m model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/7863\/8774\/files\/100630.png?v=1788145994\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bently Nevada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45411235496118,"sku":"100630-08-15-15-01","price":106.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/7863\/8774\/files\/100630_481d4e2f-c4f4-496c-9911-4b87023d9607.jpg?v=1788772153","url":"https:\/\/www.plcsparehub.com\/products\/100630-08-15-15-01-bently-nevada-submersible-proximity-probe-in-stock","provider":"Global PLC Spare Hub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
