Features:
- External probe access: The housing supports gap adjustment and probe service without machine disassembly.
- Configured 8 mm sensing path: The assembly includes a multiple-approval probe and 1.0 m cable.
- Environmental enclosure: Type 4X and IP66 construction protects the installed components when correctly assembled.
The 31000 housing is intended for through-case radial-vibration or phase-reference probe installations.
Its standoff, penetration, fitting set and mounting thread are encoded in the complete assembly number and must be retained at replacement.
The enclosure does not replace process-pressure containment or an explosion-proof housing where those protections are required.
Apter Power can help confirm the Bently Nevada 31000-28-10-15-040-03-02 probe, sleeve geometry, fitting set and machine-case thread before quotation.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Probe choice: Confirm the included multiple-approval 3300 XL 8 mm probe matches the monitoring channel.
- Standoff: Verify the 1.5-inch adapter places the housing outside insulation and other machine obstructions.
- Penetration: Reconcile the 4.0-inch probe penetration with the machine-case and target geometry.
- Fittings: Confirm the option 03 plugs, reducer and cable-seal grip suit the planned conduit route.
- Outer sleeve: Install the 3/4-14 NPT sleeve in the prepared machine-case opening using the approved sealing practice.
- Probe gap: Insert the probe sleeve, set the electrical gap and secure the retainer before final cable routing.
- Housing closure: Seal unused holes and tighten the cover hardware while preserving cable bend radius.
- Sleeve support: Add support near the probe where combined standoff and penetration exceed the documented limit.
- Pressure boundary: Do not treat this assembly as pressure-rated or explosion-proof containment.
- Leak control: The machine design must safely contain liquids or gases if leakage occurs through the probe path.
- Measurement validity: For radial vibration, verify the machine casing is affixed to the bearing.
- Axial arrangement: Use the manufacturer-specified alternative housing for dual-probe axial-position measurement.
- Radial shaft vibration: Provides an externally serviceable probe path through a machine case.
- Keyphasor reference: Houses the probe used to observe a phase-reference target.
- API 670 installations: Supports externally mounted proximity-probe housing practice within the documented boundary.
- Maintenance access: Allows probe adjustment or replacement without opening the monitored machine.
