32000-16-05-10-078-07-02 Bently Nevada Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies Description: The 32000 Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies are recommended for installing proximity probes through a machine’s case, and they are typically utilized with radially mounted transducers—whether for vibration monitoring or Keyphasor measurements.
Using a proximity probe housing provides the key advantage of external access to both the probe and its extension cable. This means gap adjustment or probe replacement can be completed without the need to disassemble the machine itself. Constructed primarily from polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), the 32000 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly features this advanced, high-strength thermoplastic material, which offers excellent corrosion resistance. Other components of the housing assembly are made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel to further enhance durability in harsh environments.
Additionally, the housing can be ordered with pre-installed 3300 XL Proximity Probes, along with a range of conduit fitting options to suit different installation requirements. Notably, the 32000 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is fully compliant with the American Petroleum Institute’s (API) 670 Standard, which governs externally mounted proximity probe housings. When installed alongside an approved transducer system and appropriate I.S. barriers, the 32000 series meets the necessary safety and performance criteria for such applications.
Specifically, the 32000-16-05-10-078-07-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is engineered to seal differential pressure between the probe tip and the main housing body when paired with a 3300 XL 8 mm probe. The internal sealing components include a Viton O-ring inside the probe case, while a Neoprene O-ring is used between the sleeve and the housing.
The plastic housing is certified to withstand hose-directed water exposure in accordance with NEMA 4X and IP66 standards. It should be noted, however, that the housing is not designed to resist internal or external pressure. Furthermore, probes are not subjected to pressure testing prior to shipment.

Q&A:
1、Is the 32000-16-05-10-078-07-02 can be used in hazardous site? Model 32000-16-05-10-078-07-02 is suitable for use in intrinsically safe hazardous area applications. It should be noted that the 32000 housing is designed solely to provide mechanical and environmental protection, and does not function as an explosion-proof enclosure. For applications requiring an explosion-proof proximity probe housing assembly, specify housing models CA21000 or CA24701. A key ordering restriction applies here: CA-series housings are available for order exclusively by North American end users. For end users located in all other regions, the non-CA designated housing models 21000 and 24701 must be selected instead.
