Quick Detail

Description

The 21000-16-10-35-098-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is a high-performance, externally mounted housing designed for 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes in industrial automation systems. Constructed with a lightweight aluminum body and a 304 stainless steel sleeve, this housing ensures robust protection against environmental hazards while maintaining precise probe alignment. The assembly includes a 1.0 m (39 in) probe cable, 3.5 in standoff adapter, and 9.8 in probe penetration, providing flexible installation in confined or elevated areas. With threaded 3/4-14 NPT mounting, multiple conduit ports, O-rings, and optional standoff adapters, it accommodates a wide range of industrial sensors. The housing supports CSA-certified, explosion-proof, and hazardous area applications, fully compliant with API 670 standards, making it ideal for vibration monitoring, rotating machinery diagnostics, and critical process control in automation environments. Optional conduit fittings and additional probe sleeve support are available for long sleeves exceeding 12 inches, reducing vibration and maintaining measurement accuracy. Typical mass is 1.1 kg (2.4 lb) without fittings, ensuring ease of installation while meeting rigorous industrial requirements.

Applications

1. Rotating Machinery Monitoring
The 21000 housing protects 3300 XL probes for accurate shaft vibration and position measurement, enabling predictive maintenance in turbines and compressors with probe sleeve lengths up to 9.8 in.

2. Hazardous Area Installations
CSA-certified and explosion-proof, it is suitable for hazardous zones in oil & gas and chemical plants, allowing safe, reliable proximity measurement in intrinsically safe automation setups.

3. Long Sleeve Probe Installations
Supports probe sleeves longer than 12 in with optional sleeve support (part 37948-01), minimizing vibration interference and improving reliability in high-speed rotating machinery.

4. Process Control Optimization
Provides precise external probe mounting for real-time condition monitoring of critical pumps and generators, helping optimize control loops and reduce unplanned downtime.

5. Compact Space Applications
Compatible with optional standoff adapters and compact configurations, enabling proximity probe deployment in restricted areas, ensuring accurate measurements without mechanical interference.
