Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 21000-16-10-15-114-03-02 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications for Reliable Monitoring

The 21000-16-10-15-114-03-02 supports API 670 standard compliance for externally mounted proximity probes, making it a trusted choice for critical machinery protection systems.

Installation and Setup Guidance

When installing the 21000-16-10-15-114-03-02, ensure the mounting thread (3/4-14 NPT) is properly sealed to maintain the explosion-proof rating. For probe penetration lengths (C plus D) greater than 300 mm (12 in), sleeve support near the probe is required to prevent resonance. The adjustment range for probe penetration option D is 13 mm (±0.5 in). Use the provided fittings: one 3/4-14 NPT plug, one 3/4-14 to 1/2-14 NPT reducer, and the cable seal grip with appropriate grommets for cable sizes from 1/8 to 3/8 inches.

Maintenance and Reliability

Regularly inspect the housing for signs of corrosion or damage, especially in harsh environments. The aluminum body with 304 stainless steel sleeve offers good corrosion resistance. Periodically verify that all conduit connections and seals remain tight to preserve the CSA Type 4 enclosure integrity. No internal disassembly is required for routine checks.
