Its 3300 XL 8 mm probe delivers accurate displacement measurements, while the rugged housing protects the sensor in harsh conditions. With its CSA Type 4 rating and explosion-proof design, this assembly suits hazardous areas where safety is paramount. Whether used in oil and gas, power generation, or petrochemical plants, this housing ensures reliable performance and minimal downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Setup\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eProper installation is critical for accurate readings. The mounting thread of 3\/4-14 NPT must match the machine's tapped hole. For probe penetration lengths between 1.0 and 2.0 inches, counter boring the machine case may be necessary to reduce side or rear view effects. If the total penetration (C plus D) exceeds 300 mm (12 in), add sleeve support near the probe to prevent resonance. The adjustment range for option D is 13 mm (±0.5 in). Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for torque and alignment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance \u0026amp; Reliability\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRegular inspection of the housing and probe is recommended to ensure long-term reliability. Check the O-rings and thread seal for wear, and verify that the dome cover is securely tightened. The stainless steel sleeve resists corrosion, and the aluminum body is lightweight yet robust. With proper care, this assembly provides years of trouble-free service, reducing unplanned maintenance costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSelection Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen ordering, verify the suffix codes to match your application. The 21000-28-00-20-018-04-02 includes a 3300 XL 8 mm probe, 2-inch standoff adapter, and 1.8-inch probe penetration. Ensure the mounting thread option is selected when the standoff adapter length is not -00. For hazardous area requirements, confirm the probe's approval rating. PLC Source PRO offers this new, original unit with a 12-month factory warranty, ensuring you receive a genuine, reliable component.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bently Nevada","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":44439324262499,"sku":"21000-28-00-20-018-04-02","price":236.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/8635\/0435\/files\/21000-00-00-00-035-04-02_9dcc5b37-9ec7-477c-8670-cb0cc7358fe8.jpg?v=1785868385","url":"https:\/\/www.plcsourcepro.com\/he\/products\/bently-nevada-21000-28-00-20-018-04-02-proximity-probe-housing-assembly","provider":"PLC Source PRO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
