  • Process automation

Technical FAQ

Q: What systems is the 16710-33 compatible with?
A: The 16710-33 is specifically designed for use with the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. It is used to connect various 3500 I/O modules, such as the 3500/40M Proximitor Monitor, 3500/42M Proximitor/Seismic Monitor, and 3500/45 Position Monitor, to their corresponding external termination blocks (e.g., 3500/25 Keyphasor I/O, 3500/40 External Termination Block) or internal termination I/O modules. Compatibility is dependent on the specific I/O module and termination type being used in the 3500 rack configuration.

Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: Proper installation is critical for system performance. First, ensure all power to the 3500 rack is de-energized before installation. Securely fasten the D-sub connector of the 16710-33 to the rear of the designated I/O module using the integrated jackscrews. Route the cable through designated cable trays, avoiding sharp bends (maintain a minimum bend radius of 10x the cable diameter), pinch points, and proximity to high-voltage power cables to prevent physical damage and noise induction. Land the pre-stripped conductors of the pigtail end onto the correct terminals of the associated terminal block, following the wiring diagram specific to the monitor and transducer type. Ensure proper strain relief is applied to the cable at both ends. The cable's shield drain wire must be terminated correctly, typically at the rack chassis ground terminal only, to prevent ground loops per Bently Nevada system grounding guidelines.

31000-16-05-00-100-03-02 | Bently Nevada | Proximity Probe HousingAssemblies

Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 31000-16-05-00-100-03-02 is a proximity probe housing assembly designed for the physical protection and precise positioning of eddy current proximity probes. Its primary function is to provide a rigid, environmentally sealed conduit for mounting a probe to a machine case, enabling accurate measurement of shaft vibration and position. Constructed from 303 stainless steel, the housing offers high resistance to corrosion and physical damage common in industrial environments. This specific assembly, part number 31000-16-05-00-100-03-02, features a 3/4-14 NPT male thread for mounting into the machine case, ensuring a secure and pressure-tight fit. The housing allows for fine adjustment of the probe's distance to the target surface, which is critical for setting the correct DC gap voltage. The signal from the probe, which is an integral part of a complete transducer system, is transmitted through an extension cable to a Proximitor sensor. The Proximitor demodulates this signal into a voltage proportional to the gap, which is then fed into a Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System for continuous monitoring, analysis, and alarming.

Operational Capabilities

The 31000-16-05-00-100-03-02 housing assembly is engineered for high reliability in demanding industrial settings. In Oil & Gas applications, its 303 stainless steel construction and NPT threaded connection provide excellent resistance to corrosive agents such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ensure pressure containment when installed correctly. In Power Generation environments, the assembly maintains positional stability for the probe across the wide operating temperatures associated with steam and gas turbines, preventing measurement drift due to thermal expansion. The rigid design protects the sensitive probe tip and extension cable from external impact and high vibration, directly contributing to the high Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of the overall vibration measurement channel. When installed in accordance with Bently Nevada installation procedures, the housing assembly supports the intrinsic safety and hazardous area certifications of the complete transducer system, making it suitable for deployment in classified locations.

Technical FAQ

Q: What systems is the 31000-16-05-00-100-03-02 compatible with?
A: The 31000-16-05-00-100-03-02 is an integral component of the Bently Nevada 3300 XL Proximity Transducer System. This system, which includes the probe, extension cable, and a 3300 XL Proximitor Sensor, is designed for direct interface with the Bently Nevada 3500 Machinery Protection System. It is also fully compatible with the legacy 3300 monitoring system. The analog voltage output from the associated Proximitor Sensor can also be integrated with other third-party PLCs, DCS, and data acquisition systems capable of processing a -2 to -18 Vdc signal.

Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: Proper installation is critical for accurate measurement. The machine case requires a mounting hole drilled and tapped for a 3/4-14 NPT thread. An appropriate thread sealant must be applied to the housing's male NPT threads to ensure a pressure-tight seal. The housing is then threaded into the machine case and tightened. The proximity probe is inserted into the housing and its axial position is adjusted to achieve the correct DC gap voltage, typically -10 Vdc for a standard 3300 XL 8 mm probe configuration. Once the gap is set, the probe is secured within the housing using its set screws. Proper system grounding, as detailed in Bently Nevada documentation, is mandatory for signal integrity.
