By providing a fixed mechanical path, the housing maintains the precise gap required for accurate eddy-current displacement measurement. The assembly acts as an environmental barrier, protecting the probe body and its coaxial cable from oil mist, particulates, and mechanical impacts prevalent in turbomachinery environments. The internal thread design supports accurate probe depth adjustment, allowing the user to precisely set the gap relative to the machine shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering info\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne (1) 31000-16-10-15-201-02-02 Proximity Probe Housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting nut and O-ring seal kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical installation and assembly documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Ensure thread compatibility with existing machine ports for pressure-tight installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMechanical Interface: Install the housing into the machine port using appropriate thread sealant (e.g., Teflon tape or industrial pipe compound) to achieve a positive, leak-free seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlignment: Ensure the housing is oriented perpendicular to the shaft centerline; verify that the probe can be fully inserted and adjusted to the required operating gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCable Routing: Use the integrated conduit fitting to secure the probe's coaxial cable; maintain a gentle bend radius to avoid damaging the internal coaxial dielectric or shield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrounding: Secure the housing body to a clean, low-impedance machine ground to maintain the shielding integrity of the transducer system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocking: Once the optimal probe gap is established, tighten the jam nuts to secure the housing assembly, preventing movement due to harmonic vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is the purpose of the 31000 series housing?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 31000 series provides a robust, standardized mechanical interface for mounting proximity probes while protecting the probe body and cable from the machine operating environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs the housing compatible with all 11 mm probes?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing is designed specifically for 11 mm probe diameters; verify that the probe thread pitch matches the internal threading of the housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow is the thread seal maintained?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing utilizes standard threads; apply suitable industrial thread sealant to ensure a pressure-tight seal if the installation is in a pressurized oil cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCan the housing be used in high-temperature zones?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
