Industry Applications
This dual axial probe housing is essential for monitoring axial thrust position in turbines, compressors, and large pumps. By providing continuous feedback on shaft movement, it helps prevent catastrophic thrust bearing failure and unplanned downtime. The external mounting design allows probe adjustments without machine disassembly, reducing maintenance costs and improving operational efficiency.

Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the enclosure on the machine case using four standard machine screws. The probes are installed through two 3/4-in NPT threaded holes into sleeve/adapter assemblies. Ensure the removable cover is secured after setting probe gaps. The 1.7 in probe penetration option (017) is pre-configured for this assembly. Note that fittings are supplied as a separate kit and are not pre-installed.
Maintenance & Reliability
Periodically inspect the housing for signs of corrosion or physical damage. The aluminum alloy housing with 304 stainless steel sleeves offers durability in harsh environments. Clean the cover and sealing surfaces to maintain environmental protection. Verify probe gap settings during routine machine inspections.
Dual Axial Probe Housing for Thrust Position Monitoring
The Bently Nevada 21022-00-00-017-00 is a Dual Axial Probe Housing Assembly designed for precise axial thrust position measurement in rotating machinery. This externally mounted protective enclosure houses two proximity probes that observe the end of the shaft, ensuring reliable monitoring of thrust bearing movement. Built to meet the American Petroleum Institute's API 670 Standard, this housing provides robust protection for probes, leads, and extension cables against dust, splashing liquid, and other environmental factors.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
When ordering the 21022-00-00-017-00, confirm the probe penetration length and cable options match your application. This model does not include probes or cables.
