Description

Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 21000-16-05-00-076-04-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is a precision-engineered component designed for mission-critical shaft vibration and position monitoring in rotating machinery. As part of the industry-standard 3300 XL series ecosystem, this housing assembly ensures optimal mechanical alignment, thermal stability, and electromagnetic shielding—critical factors that directly impact probe sensitivity, signal integrity, and long-term measurement repeatability. Manufactured to stringent API 670 (4th Edition) and ISO 10816 compliance requirements, it supports high-fidelity data acquisition in demanding environments such as gas turbines, steam turbines, compressors, and large electric motors.

This housing assembly integrates seamlessly with Bently Nevada’s 3300 XL 8 mm and 11 mm proximity probes and is optimized for use with standard 3300/50 or 3300/75 monitor systems. Its robust stainless steel construction provides exceptional resistance to corrosion, mechanical shock, and temperature fluctuations ranging from –40 °C to +125 °C. The precisely machined internal geometry maintains consistent probe-to-target gap tolerances, minimizing installation-induced errors and reducing commissioning time. Field-proven across global power generation, oil & gas, and industrial manufacturing applications, the 21000-16-05-00-076-04-02 delivers unmatched reliability for predictive maintenance programs and continuous condition monitoring strategies.
