Quick Detail

Description

The 31000-16-10-00-159-00-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is an engineered mounting solution designed for reliable integration of proximity probes in industrial automation and rotating machinery condition monitoring systems. By enabling radial access through machine casings, the 31000-16-10-00-159-00-02 housing assembly supports precise vibration, Keyphasor, and shaft dynamics measurements commonly required in turbomachinery diagnostics and predictive maintenance workflows. Constructed from PPS glass-reinforced thermoplastic with conductive additives and stainless-steel sleeve components, the assembly combines corrosion resistance, dielectric stability, and high mechanical strength suitable for petrochemical processing, power generation, and refining environments. The housing allows external access to the probe and extension cable for adjustment and replacement without machine disassembly, reducing downtime and lifecycle cost. With CSA Type 4X protection, BASEEFA impact certification, API 670 compliance, and compatibility with 3300 XL 8 mm probe systems, the 31000-16-10-00-159-00-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly facilitates safe deployment in hazardous area applications where continuous vibration monitoring and speed reference measurements support operational reliability and industrial automation performance.

Applications

Application 1: Shaft Radial Vibration Monitoring
Used with 3300 XL probes for radial vibration sensing on compressors, gas turbines, and pumps operating within API 670 monitoring frameworks to support automated condition-based maintenance.

Application 2: Keyphasor Phase & Speed Reference Measurements
Supports installation of phase reference transducers for balancing, fault analysis, and machine startup sequencing within petrochemical and refinery machinery units.

Application 3: Hazardous Area Instrumentation Deployment
When combined with I.S. barriers and compliant transducer systems, the housing enables intrinsically safe measurement architectures within Class I/Zone environments.

Application 4: Outdoor Process Facility Installations
CSA Type 4X enclosure performance and corrosion-resistant materials support installations exposed to moisture, cooling tower discharge, and industrial chemical vapors.

Application 5: Service-Optimized Monitoring Architecture
External cable access enables probe replacement and gap setting adjustments without teardown, reducing mean time to repair (MTTR) for critical rotating assets.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

Advantage 1: API 670 Compliance for Industrial Standardization
Ensures mechanical, environmental, and measurement consistency across OEM platforms, reducing integration risk for industrial automation and monitoring systems.

Advantage 2: PPS High-Strength Thermoplastic Structure
Glass-reinforced PPS material delivers corrosion resistance, dimensional stability, and dielectric strength superior to aluminum or unreinforced polymers in harsh environments.

Advantage 3: Impact & Thermal Stress Certification
BASEEFA testing verifies mechanical integrity under two 4-J impacts at −39°C and 115°C, enabling deployment in extreme temperature and vibration conditions typical of turbomachinery.

Advantage 4: Reduced Downtime Through External Probe Access
Permits non-invasive service operations, lowering operational disruption and maintenance labor hours in predictive maintenance applications.

Advantage 5: Compatibility with 3300 XL 8 mm Probe Systems
Ensures integration flexibility across both retrofit and OEM designs, simplifying procurement and inventory consolidation across industrial monitoring platforms.
