Bently Nevada 21000-34-00-15-018-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 21000-34-00-15-018-03-02 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications: Reducing Total Cost of Ownership

The 1.5-inch standoff adapter and 1.8-inch probe penetration allow precise gap setting, minimizing installation time and reducing labor costs. The CSA Type 4 enclosure rating ensures reliable operation in wet or dusty environments, extending service life and lowering replacement frequency.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the housing using the 3/4-14 NPT mounting thread (option -02). Ensure the standoff adapter length matches the required probe clearance. The included fitting kit provides a 3/4-14 NPT plug, a reducer to 1/2-14 NPT, and a cable seal grip with grommets for cable diameters from 1/8 to 3/8 inches. Proper cable sealing prevents moisture ingress, a common cause of premature probe failure.

Maintenance & Reliability

Inspect the O-rings and cable seal grommets annually for signs of wear or cracking. Replace any damaged seals immediately to maintain the explosion-proof rating. The aluminum body with 304 stainless steel sleeve resists corrosion in most industrial environments, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Cost-Effective Protection for Critical Machinery

Industrial rotating machinery demands reliable vibration monitoring to prevent costly unplanned downtime. The Bently Nevada 21000-34-00-15-018-03-02 proximity probe housing assembly provides a robust, explosion-proof enclosure for 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes. This assembly directly reduces operational risk by ensuring accurate, continuous measurement in harsh environments. By investing in a certified housing, you avoid the high costs of false trips or missed faults—each of which can exceed thousands of dollars in lost production.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

When ordering the 21000-34-00-15-018-03-02, verify that the probe cable length option (00) matches your installation—this variant does not include a probe cable. For complete system compatibility, pair this housing with a compatible Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm probe.
