32000-28-05-05-110-03-02 | Bently Nevada | Proximity Probe HousingAssemblies

Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 32000-28-05-05-110-03-02 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 with the target surface while protecting the sensor from environmental contaminants. Designed for industrial environments, it maintains signal integrity under high temperatures and mechanical stress. Compatible with 3500 system frameworks, this assembly supports dynamic monitoring of turbomachinery in critical applications.

Detailed Specifications

Operational Capabilities

Deployed in Oil & Gas compressors and Power Generation turbines, the housing assembly ensures continuous operation under sustained vibration (up to 20 g peak) and high shaft speeds (≤ 30,000 RPM). Field data shows MTBF exceeding 100,000 hours when installed per Bently Nevada’s ANSI/API 670 alignment guidelines. The sealed design resists ingress of moisture, dust, and hydrocarbons.

Technical FAQ

Q: Does this housing support both 5 mm and 8 mm probe diameters?
A: No. The 32000-28-05-05-110-03-02 is configured exclusively for 5 mm probes. Verify probe compatibility before installation.

Q: What torque value should be applied during mounting?
A: Tighten housing to 12 Nm (9 lb-ft) using a calibrated torque wrench. Over-torquing may distort the probe’s sensing field.
