Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 21000-16-10-15-102-03-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is a robust and precisely engineered enclosure designed to house and protect proximity probes in some of the harshest industrial environments. As a part of the widely respected 21000 Series, this model is trusted for its ability to maintain probe integrity, deliver accurate vibration and displacement readings, and withstand challenging conditions such as high vibration, heat, dust, and corrosion.
Designed for compatibility with Bently Nevada’s renowned proximity probe systems like the 3300 XL, this housing ensures the mechanical alignment and environmental shielding necessary for mission-critical equipment such as gas turbines, steam turbines, compressors, and high-speed rotating machines.
The 21000-16-10-15-102-03-02 configuration provides specific enhancements in body length and thread compatibility, tailored for installations requiring deeper probe reach or more secure mounting.
