- Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies
- 31000 and 32000 Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies
- The 31000/32000 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is made of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS)
When proximity probes need to be mounted inside a machine housing, the 31000/32000 type proximity probe housing assembly is recommended. This assembly is typically used for radially mounted sensors, whether for vibration or key phase measurements. Using a proximity probe housing allows for easy external access to the proximity probe and its extension cables, enabling gap adjustment or probe replacement without disassembling the machine.
The 31000/32000 type proximity probe housing assembly is made of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), an advanced high-strength thermoplastic material with excellent corrosion resistance. Other components of the housing assembly are made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Versions of this housing assembly pre-installed with the 3300 XL type proximity probe and various conduit fittings are available by order.
The 31000-28-05-00-061-01-02 Bently Nevada Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The 31000/32000 type proximity probe housing assembly fully complies with the American Petroleum Institute (API) 670 standard requirements for externally mounted proximity probe housings. When installed with an approved sensor system and appropriate I.S. barriers, the 31000/32000 proximity probe housing assembly can be used for intrinsically safe hazardous area applications.
1. Vibration and Position Monitoring: The 3300 XL 8 mm probe, with its standard housing, measures the following parameters:
2. Radial Vibration: Detects shaft "wobbling" or orbital motion within bearings.
3. Axial Position: Monitors the longitudinal movement (thrust) of the shaft.
4. Critical Phasor/Spindle Speed: Tracks rotational speed and provides a phase reference.
5. Corrosive Environments: Due to its glass fiber reinforced polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) housing, it is strongly recommended for environments where aluminum housings may corrode, such as chemical plants, oil refineries, or offshore platforms.
6. API 670 Compliance: This component meets the stringent API 670 mechanical protection system standard, making it the preferred choice for the oil, gas, and power industries.
