Bently Nevada 21000-34-10-20-018-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 21000-34-10-20-018-03-02 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications

This assembly is designed for externally mounted proximity probes on compressors, turbines, pumps, and other rotating equipment. The 3300 XL 8 mm probe inside provides reliable shaft vibration and position measurements. The CSA Type 4 enclosure and explosion-proof rating allow safe operation in hazardous areas, reducing the risk of costly unplanned shutdowns.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the housing using the 3/4-14 NPT thread. Ensure the standoff adapter (2.0) is correctly positioned to achieve the desired probe gap. The included fitting kit provides a 3/4-14 NPT plug, a 3/4-14 to 1/2-14 NPT reducer, and a cable seal grip with grommets for cable sizes 1/8 to 3/16 inches, 1/4 to 5/16 inches, and 5/16 to 3/8 inches. Verify the probe cable length (1.0 m) meets your routing needs before finalizing installation.

Maintenance & Reliability

Inspect the O-rings and thread seal periodically to maintain the enclosure's integrity. The aluminum body with 304 stainless steel sleeve resists corrosion in typical industrial environments. For hazardous area installations, follow all local regulations and the manufacturer's guidelines for explosion-proof equipment. Regular visual checks of the dome cover and conduit connections help ensure long-term reliability.

Robust Protection for Critical Vibration Monitoring

For maintenance engineers working with rotating machinery, reliable vibration data is non-negotiable. The Bently Nevada 21000-34-10-20-018-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly provides a rugged, explosion-proof enclosure for the 3300 XL 8 mm probe, ensuring accurate measurements in harsh industrial environments. This assembly simplifies installation and reduces downtime, making it a trusted choice for API 670 compliant applications.
