Quick Detail

Description

The 31000-29-05-00-090-01-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is a rugged mechanical enclosure designed for secure installation of 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes within rotating machinery, supporting reliable vibration and Keyphasor measurements in advanced industrial automation applications. Constructed from glass-reinforced PPS thermoplastic containing conductive fibers, combined with stainless steel sleeves and fasteners, the 31000-29-05-00-090-01-02 housing provides superior corrosion resistance, enhanced thermal endurance, and long-term dimensional stability in oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation environments. With a 9.0 inch probe penetration dimension, 0.5 m probe cable, and 3/4-14 NPT mounting configuration, this proximity probe housing facilitates external probe access for gap adjustment and rapid probe replacement without opening or disassembling the machine case.

The 31000 Series assemblies are Type 4X CSA-certified and meet API 670 specifications for externally mounted proximity probe housings, enabling use in hazardous areas when combined with approved transducer systems and intrinsic safety barriers. The housing demonstrates certified impact tolerance of 4 Joules at extreme temperatures ranging from -39°C to +115°C, ensuring mechanical robustness under vibration, thermal cycling, and pressure variations typical in high-value industrial assets. By enabling secure probe mounting, environmental protection, and service accessibility, the 31000-29-05-00-090-01-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly enhances operational reliability, predictive maintenance strategies, and automation-driven condition monitoring for rotating equipment fleets.

Applications

Radial Vibration Monitoring
Used for radial vibration measurements on steam turbines, gas turbines, and compressors. The housing ensures stable probe positioning and prevents measurement drift caused by casing heat, enabling higher diagnostic accuracy in automated vibration monitoring systems.

Keyphasor Phase Reference Measurement
Applied for phase reference signal acquisition in machinery diagnostics. The 3/4-14 NPT interface supports alignment precision necessary for phase angle calculation, spectral analysis, and balancing procedures in power generation equipment.

Intrinsically Safe Hazardous Zone Deployment
Compatible with hazardous and classified zones when used with approved IS barriers. Supports petrochemical and refinery assets where external probe access reduces downtime during predictive maintenance cycles.

Retrofit and Upgrade Installations
Supports upgrades from older transducer mounting assemblies to modern proximity systems. Reduces mechanical rework and shortens installation time in legacy rotating machinery automation programs.

Gap Adjustment and Probe Accessibility
Allows external adjustment of probe gap without disassembling the casing, reducing machine shutdown durations by up to 60% during maintenance, and enabling more frequent condition monitoring intervals.

Specifications
