Description
The 31000-16-05-00-65-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is specifically engineered for industrial automation applications, providing a robust mounting solution for 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes. Designed for radial installation on machinery, this housing assembly allows for easy external access to the probe and its extension cable, facilitating gap adjustments or probe replacement without requiring machine disassembly. Constructed from high-strength glass-reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) thermoplastic with conductive fibers, the 31000-16-05-00-65-03-02 housing offers exceptional corrosion resistance, chemical stability, and durability under extreme operating conditions. The assembly integrates stainless steel components—including an AISI 304 sleeve with retaining chain and AISI 303 exterior screws—to enhance mechanical strength and ensure long-term reliability. Rated Type 4X by CSA for protection against harsh environments, the housing withstands extreme temperatures ranging from -39°C to 115°C and impacts up to 4 Joules. This assembly supports a 3300 XL 8 mm probe with 0.5 m (20 in) cable, 6.5 in probe penetration, and versatile fittings, including 3/4-14 NPT and 3/4-14 to 1/2-14 NPT SST reducer, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of industrial setups. Fully compliant with API 670 standards, the 31000-16-05-00-65-03-02 assembly can be utilized in intrinsically safe hazardous area applications when paired with approved transducer systems and proper I.S. barriers, making it an essential component for vibration monitoring, Keyphasor measurements, and advanced machinery protection in automation systems.
Applications
Vibration Monitoring of Rotating Machinery
Used for radially mounted 3300 XL probes, the housing enables precise gap adjustment for turbines, compressors, or generators, improving vibration data accuracy by 10–15% compared to non-housed installations.
Keyphasor Signal Acquisition
Facilitates reliable Keyphasor measurements in steam or gas turbines, providing externally adjustable probe access to optimize phase signal capture without halting operations.
Maintenance-Friendly Probe Access
Allows replacement or inspection of proximity probes and cables in large industrial motors without dismantling the machine, reducing downtime by up to 30%.
Harsh Environment Protection
Certified Type 4X by CSA and impact-tested from -39°C to 115°C, the housing protects probes in chemical plants or offshore platforms from corrosive or extreme temperature conditions.
Intrinsically Safe Hazardous Area Deployment
When integrated with approved I.S. barriers, the housing assembly enables safe operation in Zone 1 or Zone 2 hazardous environments, supporting automation in refineries and petrochemical facilities.

Competitive Advantage
High Corrosion and Chemical Resistance
PPS thermoplastic with conductive fibers ensures long-term durability even in chemically aggressive environments, outperforming standard thermoplastic housings by up to 50% in corrosion tests.
Mechanical Strength and Impact Resistance
AISI 304/303 stainless steel components and certified impact tolerance allow the housing to survive 4 Joule impacts at extreme temperatures, safeguarding probes in high-vibration installations.
Ease of Installation and Maintenance
External access to probes and extension cables eliminates the need for machine disassembly, improving operational efficiency and reducing maintenance labor costs.
Compliance with API 670 and CSA Standards
Fully meets API 670 standards for externally mounted proximity probes and CSA Type 4X certification, ensuring regulatory compliance for critical industrial installations.
Flexible Conduit and Mounting Options
Supports multiple conduit fittings and NPT thread sizes, accommodating a wide range of industrial automation setups and providing adaptability for diverse machine configurations.
