Quick Detail

Description

The 21000-16-05-00-055-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is engineered for safe and precise external mounting of 3300 XL 8 mm probes in automated industrial systems. This housing assembly accommodates a 0.5 m (20 in) probe cable and 5.5 in probe penetration, providing easy external access for gap adjustment or probe replacement without disassembling machinery. The assembly features a 3/4-14 NPT mounting thread, aluminum body, and 304 stainless steel sleeve for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. Fittings include a 3/4-14 NPT plug, a 3/4-14 to 1/2-14 NPT reducer, and a cable seal grip compatible with multiple cable sizes, ensuring secure connections for automated monitoring systems.

Certified CSA Type 4 and compliant with API 670 standards, the 21000-16-05-00-055-03-02 housing supports intrinsically safe hazardous area installations when paired with approved transducers. Its robust construction withstands the mechanical and thermal stresses of industrial environments while ensuring accurate vibration, axial position, and Keyphasor measurements using 3300 XL 8 mm probes. Optional standoff adapters and sleeve supports further enhance stability for long probe installations, reducing vibration and improving measurement reliability in automated fluid-film bearing machines and turbine monitoring systems.
