Features:
- Explosion-Proof Aluminum Housing With 304 Stainless Steel Sleeve For Long-Term Durability
- Probe Penetration Of 9.8 Inches With 1.0 m (39 In) Cable For Flexible Installation
- Compatible With CSA-Certified Intrinsically Safe Applications And Optional Standoff Adapters
Bently Nevada 21000-28-10-00-098-04-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly Is Designed For External Mounting Of 3300 XL 8mm Probes, Providing A Robust Aluminum Body With Stainless Steel Sleeve. Compared To The 24701 Stainless Steel Housing, The 21000 Offers Lighter Weight Without Compromising CSA Type 4 Certification Or Compliance With API 670 Standards. The Assembly Features One 3/4-14 NPT Plug And Threaded Ports For Conduit Connections, Ensuring Secure And Easy Installation.
The Housing Assembly Supports Probe Sleeve Lengths Up To 12 Inches, And Longer Sleeves Can Be Stabilized Using Bently Nevada Probe Support And Oil Seal (37948-01). This Provides Enhanced Vibration Reduction Compared To The Compact 164818 Housing, Which Is Better Suited For Restricted Spaces But Offers Less Sleeve Support Flexibility. Optional Conduit Fittings And Standoff Adapters Allow Adaptation To Specific Installation Requirements.
Bently Nevada 21000-28-10-00-098-04-02 Excels In Providing Reliable, Explosion-Proof Performance For Hazardous Areas While Maintaining Ease Of Use And Maintenance. Its Combination Of Aluminum And Stainless Steel Materials Improves Corrosion Resistance And Longevity, Making It A Superior Choice Over Other Housings Like 24701 And 164818 For Standard Industrial Applications.
The 21000-28-10-00-098-04-02 Bently Nevada Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

- Online Adjustment Capability: Allows for precise adjustment of the probe gap during machine operation (via an external cable seal), greatly improving maintenance efficiency without downtime.
- Probe Protection: Provides a robust physical barrier for 8 mm and 5 mm eddy current probes, preventing environmental contaminants from interfering with measurements.
- Standardized Connections: This configuration (-04-02) typically includes 3/4-14 NPT conduit connections and a standard external terminal box, ensuring high signal integrity.
- Mechanical Stability: The aluminum housing (-28 code indicates aluminum) provides lightweight construction while ensuring the rigidity of the probe holder under long-term vibration.
- Large Rotating Machinery: Widely used in steam turbines, gas turbines, centrifugal compressors, and large pumps.
- External Bearing Housing Mounting: When it is not possible to mount the probe inside the machine, this housing is mounted externally, with the probe extending through mounting holes to monitor shaft vibration.
- Oil and Chemical Facilities: Used in critical production lines requiring frequent probe gap calibration or preventative maintenance.
- Multi-parameter Monitoring: Often installed in pairs (X-Y direction) for axis trajectory analysis.
- Enclosure Material: ADC12 die-cast aluminum (code -28) with an epoxy resin coating for excellent resistance to atmospheric corrosion.
- Hazardous Area Certification: Compliant with ATEX/IECEx and North American (CSA/NRTL) certifications, suitable for flammable and explosive environments such as Zone 0, 1, or 2 (depending on the internally installed probe and safety barrier configuration).
- Protection Rating: The enclosure is typically designed to IP66 or Type 4X rating, effectively protecting against rain, spray, and dust intrusion.
- Temperature Resistance: The mechanical components can withstand a typical wide industrial temperature range (typically -40°C to +100°C), with the upper limit limited by the internally installed probe and seals.
