Description

The 21000-16-05-00-038-04-02 is a robust proximity probe housing assembly designed for the secure mounting and protection of eddy-current displacement probes. This configuration features an aluminum body with a 304 stainless steel sleeve, specifically engineered to house a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe (Option 16). It includes a 0.5 meter (20 in) probe cable (Option 05) and is configured without a standoff adapter (Option 00), with a specific probe penetration depth of 38 mm (Option 038). The assembly is equipped with a 1/2-14 BSP mounting thread (Option 04) and includes one 3/4-14 NPT plug (Option 02).

This housing assembly meets API 670 standards for externally mounted proximity probe housings, ensuring reliable operation in demanding industrial environments. The 21000 series is built for durability, providing essential protection for sensors used in critical rotating machinery monitoring applications, such as axial position and shaft vibration measurements.

Features

  • Probe: 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe
  • Cable Length: 0.5 meter (20 in)
  • Standoff Adapter: None (Option 00)
  • Probe Penetration: 38 mm (1.5 in)
  • Mounting Thread: 1/2-14 BSP
  • Fittings: One 3/4-14 NPT plug
  • Construction: Aluminum body with 304 stainless steel sleeve

Applications

  • Oil and Gas upstream and downstream facilities
  • Power generation plants
  • Petrochemical and chemical processing
  • Rotating machinery vibration and position monitoring (centrifugal compressors, steam turbines, gas turbines, pumps)

Installation Guidelines

  • Ensure the probe lead is longer than the sleeve.
  • For probe penetration lengths between 1.0 in and 2.0 in, counter-boring the machine case may be necessary to reduce probe side-view effects.
  • If the total probe penetration (C + D) exceeds 300 mm (12 in), add sleeve support near the probe to prevent resonance.
  • The adjustment range for probe penetration is 13 mm (+/- 0.5 in).

FAQ

What does the 38 mm penetration depth mean for this housing?

The 038 option represents a 38 mm (1.5 in) probe penetration depth, which determines how far the probe extends into the machine casing relative to the mounting surface.

Can I use this housing in hazardous locations?

The 21000 housing assembly is compatible with hazardous area monitoring systems. Please consult the Bently Nevada Approvals Quick Reference Guide (108M1756) for country-specific certifications.

What is the material composition of this 21000 housing?

This housing features an aluminum body with a 304 stainless steel sleeve, providing both durability and chemical resistance in industrial environments.

Does this assembly include a standoff adapter?

No, this specific configuration (Option 00) does not include a standoff adapter.
