Industrial Applications for Enhanced Reliability
The Type 4X and IP66 ratings make it suitable for outdoor installations, washdown areas, and hazardous locations requiring electrostatic dissipation (CENELEC EN50014). The 2.0-inch probe penetration allows precise gap setting for accurate shaft displacement measurements.

Installation and Setup Guidance
When installing the 31000-28-10-00-020-03-02, use the included fittings: two plugs, one 3/4-14 NPT fitting, one 3/4-14 to 1/2-14 NPT SST reducer, and a cable seal grip with grommets for cable sizes from 1/8 to 3/8 inches. The recommended torque for the retaining nut is 29.4 N·m (260 in·lb). Ensure the mounting thread (3/4-14 NPT) is properly sealed to maintain the environmental rating.
Maintenance and Reliability
Inspect the Neoprene O-rings and cable seal grommets periodically for wear or cracking. The glass-reinforced PPS housing withstands impacts up to 4 Joules at extreme temperatures (-39°C to +115°C) and 7 Joules at ambient temperature, per BASEEFA and CSA certifications. Replace any damaged components to maintain the Type 4X/IP66 seal integrity.
Robust Protection for Critical Vibration Monitoring
For maintenance engineers working with rotating machinery, the integrity of proximity probe installations is non-negotiable. The Bently Nevada 31000-28-10-00-020-03-02 is a purpose-built probe housing assembly that provides a sealed, rugged enclosure for 3300 XL 8 mm probes. Its design focuses on environmental sealing and mechanical durability, ensuring reliable vibration data collection even in the most demanding conditions.

Compatibility and Integration
This housing is designed for use with Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probes. The 1.0 m cable length provides flexibility for routing in tight spaces. The assembly seals differential pressure between the probe tip and housing main body when used with the specified probe.
