Description

The 31000-16-10-15-030-03-02 is an English proximity probe housing assembly designed for robust machinery vibration and position monitoring. This configuration includes a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe (Option A: 16) with a 1.0 m cable (Option B: 10), integrated with a standoff adapter and probe penetration assembly for precise gap adjustment and external maintenance access. The housing is constructed from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), a high-strength thermoplastic offering superior corrosion resistance, complemented by stainless steel components for long-term durability. This housing assembly serves as a protective enclosure for proximity probes, allowing for installation through the machine case for radial vibration or Keyphasor measurements. The design facilitates external probe access, enabling gap adjustments or replacement without requiring internal machine disassembly. It is fully compliant with the American Petroleum Institute (API) 670 standard for externally mounted proximity probe housings and is suitable for use in intrinsically safe hazardous area applications when paired with appropriate transducer systems and I.S. barriers.

Features

  • Equipped with a 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probe for reliable eddy-current displacement measurement
  • Constructed from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and corrosion-resistant stainless steel for harsh industrial environments
  • Permits external probe gap adjustment and replacement, reducing maintenance downtime
  • Features 3/4-14 NPT mounting thread for secure installation into machine casings
  • Includes fittings (Option EE: 03) and mounting thread (Option FF: 02) configurations for flexible connection and routing
  • API 670 compliant design ensures standardized mechanical and environmental protection

Applications

  • Radial vibration monitoring for rotating machinery (turbines, compressors, pumps, motors)
  • Keyphasor measurement for phase reference and speed monitoring
  • External mounting in oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation facilities
  • Hazardous area applications (when used with approved I.S. barriers)

Technical Datasheet

Bently Nevada 31000-16-10-15-030-03-02 English Proximity Probe Housing Assembly

What type of probe is included with this housing assembly?

This specific SKU (31000-16-10-15-030-03-02) includes a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe.

Can this housing be used for axial position measurement?

While it is designed primarily for radial vibration and Keyphasor measurements, measuring shaft axial position with dual proximity probes should be done using the 21022 housing instead.

Is this housing explosion-proof?

No, the 31000 series is intended for mechanical and environmental protection. For explosion-proof requirements, use the CA21000 or CA24701 housings.

What material is the housing made of?

The housing is constructed from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), a high-strength thermoplastic known for its excellent corrosion resistance.
