Description

The 31000-16-10-00-159-00-02 is an English Proximity Probe Housing Assembly configured for use with 3300 XL 8 mm proximity transducer systems. This assembly features a 3300 XL 8 mm probe (Option 16) with a 1.0 m (39 in) probe cable (Option 10) and a probe penetration depth of 15.9 in (Option 159). Designed for non-contact vibration and position monitoring, this housing provides essential mechanical and environmental protection for the transducer probe, ensuring accurate signal transmission in demanding industrial environments. The assembly is supplied without fittings (Option 00) and utilizes a 3/4-14 NPT mounting thread (Option 02). This configuration is part of the 31000 series, intended for applications where standard environmental protection is required. It is not an explosion-proof housing; for hazardous area requirements necessitating explosion-proof enclosures, alternate housing series should be selected.

Features

Option 16: Includes factory-integrated 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe.
Option 10: 1.0 meter (39 in) probe cable length, supporting standard mounting distances.
Option 159: Precise probe penetration depth of 15.9 inches.
Option 02: 3/4-14 NPT mounting thread for standard industrial connection.
Mechanical Protection: Provides robust covering for the proximity probe, shielding it from physical impact and environmental debris.
Environmental Compatibility: Designed for reliability in harsh rotating machinery environments.

Applications

The 31000 housing assembly is used extensively in critical machinery protection applications, including:

Steam and gas turbines
Centrifugal compressors and pumps
Large electric motors and generators
Reciprocating machinery
Hydroelectric units

Installation Guidelines

Ensure the housing is securely mounted using the 3/4-14 NPT thread to prevent vibration-induced loosening.
Do not over-tighten the housing, as it is constructed for mechanical and environmental protection rather than structural load-bearing.
Ensure the probe tip is installed at the correct gap from the target as specified in the transducer system manual.
If installing in environments with high moisture or steam, ensure plugs and washers are correctly seated to maintain the intended environmental seal.
Verify the probe penetration depth against the machine case requirements before final tightening.

Compliance and Certifications

The 31000/32000 series housings provide mechanical and environmental protection. For hazardous area applications, ensure the individual probe and Proximitor sensor used within the assembly are rated for the specific area classification. This housing is not explosion-proof.
