Industry Applications for the 21000 Housing Assembly

The 21000-34-05-20-018-03-02 configuration, with its 0.5 m cable and 2.0 in standoff adapter, suits installations where the probe must be offset from the machine case. The CSA Type 4 enclosure and explosion-proof rating allow safe use in Class I, Division 1 hazardous areas. By using a certified assembly, you reduce the risk of false trips and unplanned downtime.

Installation and Setup Guidance

Mount the housing using the 3/4-14 NPT thread. Ensure the probe tip is positioned at the correct gap voltage per Bently Nevada guidelines. The cable seal grip accommodates cable diameters from 1/8 to 3/8 inches. Verify that the standoff adapter length and probe penetration match your machine's dimensions. Do not exceed the maximum (C) + (D) dimension of 13.5 in (34.3 cm).

Maintenance and Reliability

Periodically inspect the O-rings and thread seal for wear. Keep the dome cover tightened to maintain the explosion-proof seal. The aluminum body with 304 stainless steel sleeve resists corrosion in harsh environments. For the 3300 XL 8 mm probe, the operating and storage temperature range is -51°C to +177°C (-60°F to +351°F).
