Bently Nevada 31000-16-10-00-154-00-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly

Description

31000-16-10-00-154-00-02 is a heavy-duty proximity probe housing assembly engineered to provide physical protection and secure mounting for eddy-current transducers in industrial machinery environments. This assembly serves as the interface between the installed probe and the field wiring, facilitating proper probe gap adjustment while shielding the internal electrical connections from contaminants, moisture, and mechanical impact. The configuration is designed for use in harsh operational settings where vibration and position data integrity is required for rotating machinery monitoring.

The 31000 series housings provide robust enclosure and cable routing options to support 3300 series and related proximity transducers. This specific unit (16-10-00-154-00-02) incorporates specific thread and length options to accommodate standard probe mounting requirements, ensuring that the transducer remains isolated from machine case vibration and ambient interference. Correct installation of this housing is critical for maintaining the accuracy of gap measurements on shafts and rotors.

Features

• Rigid mounting platform for proximity probe transducers

Installation Guidelines

Ensure the housing is mounted securely to the machine case, maintaining perpendicularity to the target surface. Verify that the internal probe is correctly gapped according to the transducer documentation. All conduit connections must be sealed to prevent ingress of oils, water, or process gases. Use appropriate thread sealants where required to ensure the integrity of the environmental seal.
