Quick Detail

Description

The 31000-28-10-00-020-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is designed for precise and reliable integration of 3300 XL 8 mm Proximity Probes into industrial automation systems. Engineered for radially mounted transducers, it facilitates vibration and Keyphasor measurements while enabling external access to the probe and its extension cable. This feature allows real-time gap adjustments and probe replacement without disassembling machinery, significantly reducing downtime.

Constructed from high-strength Glass-reinforced Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) thermoplastic with conductive fibers, the housing ensures excellent corrosion and thermal resistance, even in aggressive industrial environments. The AISI 303 and 304 stainless steel components, including the outer sleeve, retaining chain, and exterior screws, provide additional mechanical robustness. The assembly is certified Type 4X by CSA, features a neoprene O-ring for superior sealing, and supports a probe penetration of 2.0 in with a cable length of 1.0 m (39 in). The housing withstands two 4 Joule (3.0 ft·lb) impacts at -39°C (-38°F) and 115°C (239°F), ensuring consistent protection under extreme operating conditions.

Fully compliant with API 670 standards, the 31000-28-10-00-020-03-02 housing is suitable for intrinsically safe applications when paired with approved transducer systems and I.S. barriers. It supports long-term automation operations by providing reliable mechanical protection, environmental sealing, and ease of maintenance.

Applications

1. Vibration Monitoring in Rotating Machinery
Provides secure housing for proximity probes on turbines, compressors, and pumps, enabling accurate vibration data collection with minimal signal loss.

2. Keyphasor Signal Acquisition
