Quick Detail

Description

The 31000-16-10-00-085-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is a robust solution for mounting 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes through machine casings, ideal for industrial automation and machinery vibration monitoring applications. This housing assembly provides external access to the probe and extension cable, enabling gap adjustment, probe replacement, or maintenance without disassembling critical machinery. Constructed from glass-reinforced Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) thermoplastic containing conductive fibers, the housing offers high mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and electrostatic dissipation.

All structural elements, including sleeves, retaining chains, and exterior screws, are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel (AISI 304 and 303), while neoprene O-rings ensure a tight seal for Type 4X environmental protection. The assembly supports a probe cable length of 1.0 m (39 in) and probe penetration of 8.5 in, and includes a variety of conduit fittings to accommodate multiple cable diameters. Certified by CSA and BASEEFA, this housing assembly withstands impacts of 4 Joules at extreme temperatures (-39°C to +115°C), making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. Fully compliant with API 670 standards, the 31000 series allows safe use with intrinsically safe transducer systems in hazardous areas, delivering reliable vibration and Keyphasor measurements in automated processes.

Applications

1. Radially Mounted Vibration Monitoring
Houses radially mounted 3300 XL probes to measure machine casing vibrations, enabling predictive maintenance in turbines, compressors, and pumps.

2. Keyphasor Signal Acquisition
Provides external access for Keyphasor probes, ensuring accurate rotational phase reference signals for automated control and speed monitoring systems.

3. Probe Gap Adjustment and Replacement
Allows technicians to adjust probe gaps or replace probes without dismantling machinery, reducing downtime by up to 30% in critical operations.

4. Corrosive and Harsh Environment Applications
PPS housing with stainless steel components resists corrosion and electrostatic buildup, making it suitable for chemical plants, offshore installations, and high-humidity environments.

5. Hazardous Area Automation
Compatible with intrinsically safe systems, the housing can be installed in hazardous environments while maintaining Type 4X protection, enabling safe industrial automation monitoring.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage
