Description
The 31000-16-10-00-153-00-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is a rugged industrial mounting solution engineered for secure installation of proximity probes and Keyphasor transducers in heavy rotating machinery. Designed for radial mounting through the machine case, the 31000-16-10-00-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly enables external access to the probe and extension cable, simplifying gap adjustment, calibration, and probe replacement within automated predictive maintenance systems. Constructed from glass-reinforced PPS thermoplastic with conductive fibers and corrosion-resistant stainless-steel sleeves, the housing provides excellent durability in demanding petrochemical, refining, power-generation, and turbomachinery applications. With Type 4X environmental protection, compliance with API 670 standards, and compatibility with 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes, the 31000-16-10-00-153-00-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly integrates into monitoring architectures used for real-time vibration diagnostics, speed detection, and condition monitoring in industrial automation environments.
Applications
Application 1: Radial Vibration Measurement on Turbomachinery
Used for securely mounting 3300 XL 8 mm probes for radial vibration sensing on compressors, steam turbines, and gas turbines, supporting API 670 compliant vibration monitoring in high-speed rotating assemblies.
Application 2: Keyphasor Speed and Phase Diagnostics
Supports Keyphasor transducers for speed reference and phase analysis used in predictive maintenance and vibration balancing systems, enabling precise shaft tracking for refinery and petrochemical assets.
Application 3: Intrinsically Safe Hazard Zone Installation
When paired with approved I.S. barriers and transducer systems, the housing assembly can be used in hazardous industrial zones, including oil & gas and chemical processing environments where ignition safety certification is required.
Application 4: Outdoor and Corrosive Plant Conditions
The Type 4X CSA-rated housing combined with PPS corrosion-resistant material ensures long-term deployment in outdoor cooling systems, marine machinery, or corrosive processing lines with challenging exposure profiles.
Application 5: Maintenance-Friendly Probe Accessibility
External access design enables probe cable adjustment and probe replacement without disassembling the machine casing, reducing maintenance downtime and improving asset availability in automated monitoring networks.

Competitive Advantage
Competitive Advantage 1: API 670 Standard Compliance
Compliance with API 670 ensures mechanical integrity, mounting accuracy, and compatibility with high-reliability rotating machinery monitoring systems widely used in critical industrial sectors.
Competitive Advantage 2: High-Strength PPS Housing Material
Glass-reinforced PPS with conductive fiber construction provides dimensional stability, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity benefits compared to conventional polymer housings, enhancing reliability in automation environments.
Competitive Advantage 3: Extreme Impact and Temperature Endurance
Certified to withstand two 4 Joule impacts at -39°C and 115°C, enabling deployment in harsh thermal and mechanical conditions where metal housings alone may not meet impact certification thresholds.
Competitive Advantage 4: Modular Probe Integration
Compatible with 3300 XL proximity probe systems and customizable with conduit fittings, enabling flexible assembly configurations for OEM installations, retrofits, and measurement system expansions.
Competitive Advantage 5: Reduced Downtime and Maintenance Burden
External probe access eliminates machine disassembly for sensor servicing, tightening predictive maintenance cycles and reducing operational cost in vibration monitoring infrastructures.
