Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What type of probes are compatible with the 31000 housing?
A1: It supports Bently Nevada 3300 XL 8 mm, 11 mm, and NSv probes with multiple agency approvals.
Q2: Is this housing explosion-proof?
A2: No. The 31000 is designed for intrinsic safety but not explosion-proof use. For explosion-proof models, use CA21000 or CA24701.
Q3: Can the probe be accessed without disassembling the machine?
A3: Yes, the housing allows for external probe access, gap adjustment, or replacement.
Q4: What material is used for the housing?
A4: The housing is made of PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) with stainless steel components.
Q5: Is the housing suitable for steam or hot water environments?
A5: Short-term exposure (up to 1 week at 95°C) is acceptable, but long-term exposure may degrade strength.
Q6: Does it comply with API standards?
A6: Yes, it is fully compliant with API 670 for externally mounted proximity probe housings.
Q7: What environmental protection ratings does it have?
A7: It has IP66 and NEMA Type 4X ratings for dust and water resistance.
Q8: Can this housing be used in hazardous areas?
A8: Yes, when installed with approved transducer systems and intrinsic safety barriers.
Q9: What is the impact resistance certification?
A9: It can withstand up to 7 Joules impact per CSA and BASEEFA certification.
Q10: How is the probe cable connected within the housing?
A10: The probe cable is connected internally and protected via stainless steel fittings and sealing components.
