Features:
- Enclosure for 3300 XL 8mm Proximity Probe with Connector Protection and Hazardous Area Approval
- Integrates Probe Housing Body with Standoff Adapter and Cable Management System
- Compatible with Bently Nevada 3300 XL Probe Series and API 670 Standard Requirements
The Bently Nevada 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly functions as a stainless steel protective enclosure for externally mounted proximity probes in industrial machinery monitoring applications. It securely houses a 3300 XL 8mm proximity probe with connector protector and approval option, featuring a probe cable length of 20 inches (0.5 m) and a 2.0-inch standoff adapter option. The 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 provides a probe penetration depth of 1.8 inches to ensure accurate positioning for vibration and displacement measurements. The assembly includes one 3/4-14 NPT plug, one 3/4-14 to 1/2-14 NPT reducer, and one cable seal grip with grommets accommodating cable sizes from 1/8 to 3/16 inches, 1/4 to 5/16 inches, and 5/16 to 3/8 inches. The 3/4-14 NPT mounting thread is required when the standoff adapter length option is not 00.
The 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 delivers essential protection functions critical to probe longevity and measurement accuracy, serving as a vital component in the monitoring path that directly influences reliable data acquisition from rotating equipment. One 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 housing assembly is required per probe installation point, with the stainless steel construction providing superior corrosion resistance compared to aluminum alternatives. The 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 occupies a compact mounting footprint and is always positioned at the machine access point for external probe installation.
For hazardous area applications, the 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 is certified as a CSA Type 4 enclosure and rated explosion proof for classified environments. In addition to standard probe protection, the housing assembly performs cable sealing and environmental isolation. The 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 configuration ensures compliance using the internal specifications defined in the API 670 Standard for externally mounted proximity probe housings. Using this method, the housing system maintains probe alignment and signal integrity. If the application requires sleeve lengths exceeding 304 mm (12 inches), additional sleeve support must be implemented to reduce vibration associated with unsupported configurations.
The 24701-34-05-20-018-03-02 Bently Nevada Proximity Probe Housing Assembly may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
