The Bently Nevada 21000-16-05-00-096-00-02 proximity probe housing assembly integrates with the Bently Nevada 3500 monitoring system to measure shaft displacement, vibration, and position in rotating machinery. The housing secures the proximity probe, ensuring precise alignment and mechanical stability for repeatable measurements. Constructed for harsh industrial environments, it maintains probe integrity under high temperatures, oil exposure, and mechanical stress. Compatible with standard 5 mm and 8 mm probes, the assembly includes threaded mounting provisions and corrosion-resistant materials. The design minimizes electrical interference and supports dynamic measurement ranges up to ±2 mm (±80 mils) with a linear output.

Deployed in gas turbines, compressors, and steam turbines across oil & gas and power generation sectors. Rated for continuous operation with MTBF exceeding 100,000 hours. Withstands vibration levels up to 20 g RMS (10 Hz to 2 kHz) and transient shocks of 50 g. The housing maintains probe calibration within ±1% of full scale after mechanical stress cycles.
Q: Is this housing compatible with non-Bently Nevada probes?
A: No. The mechanical tolerances and electrical shielding are optimized for Bently Nevada’s 3300/3400/3500 series probes.
Q: What torque values apply during installation?
A: Apply 12 Nm (9 ft-lb) for M16 threads or 15 Nm (11 ft-lb) for 5/8″-18 UNF. Over-torquing may distort the housing bore.
