Bently Nevada 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02 Modified Stainless-Steel Proximity Probe Housing Assembly
A modified 24701 housing assembly with a 3300 XL 8 mm approval-option probe, 0.5 m (20 in) cable and 6.5 in penetration.
Overview
Bently Nevada 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02 is a modified 24701 stainless-steel proximity probe housing assembly. Option 28 identifies a 3300 XL 8 mm probe with selectable hazardous-area approvals, while cable option 05 identifies a 0.5 m (20 in) probe cable.
The submitted standoff and final mounting-thread positions remain XX and are intentionally unresolved. Penetration 065 defines 6.5 in (165.1 mm), fittings option 03 defines one 3/4-14 npt plug, one 3/4-14 to 1/2-14 npt reducer and one cable seal grip with three grommet ranges, and the modification record is retained as 323933-00-02.
Engineering Data
Functions
The stainless-steel housing combines a threaded dome cover, conduit ports, probe sleeve, O-rings, thread seal and reverse-mount 3300 XL 8 mm probe.
The full ordering string controls cable length, optional standoff, penetration, fittings and mounting-thread selection as one mechanical identity.
The protected housing supports external probe mounting while preserving access for adjustment and service.
A sleeve support is required whenever the selected standoff plus probe-penetration dimension exceeds 300 mm (12 in).
Applications
- Externally mounted radial-vibration or shaft-position measurement on rotating machinery.
- Protected probe access on bearing housings where conduit entry and sleeve geometry must be controlled.
- Like-for-like replacement of a documented modified 24701 housing execution.
- Hazardous-area installations only after the complete probe approval option and site drawing have been verified.
Lifecycle & Service
- Record the complete 24701 code, MOD reference, installed standoff, penetration and mounting thread before removal.
- Measure the available machine-case depth and calculate the actual standoff-plus-penetration dimension before ordering.
- Keep the probe lead longer than the sleeve and add approved sleeve support when the 300 mm threshold is exceeded.
- After installation, verify probe gap, cable routing, housing sealing, channel response and the approved alarm or trip test.
FAQ
Can 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02 replace the 11.7 in execution?
No direct substitution should be assumed. The 6.5 in penetration of 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02 changes probe reach, sleeve length and target position.
What should be photographed for 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02?
Capture the complete label, MOD reference, housing ports, reducer and seal grip, probe sleeve, mounting interface and installed target depth.
Why does the option 03 cable-seal grommet size matter for 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02?
The option 03 seal grip includes distinct grommet ranges. The selected grommet must match the actual field cable while maintaining the approved sealing arrangement.
When does 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02 require sleeve support?
Only after adding the confirmed standoff length to its 6.5 in penetration. Support is mandatory if the combined C plus D dimension exceeds 300 mm (12 in).
Which commissioning check is specific to 24701-28-05-XX-065-03-XX MOD: 323933-00-02 geometry?
Verify that the probe reaches the target with adjustment margin, does not contact the shaft, and maintains a stable electrical gap through the operating condition.
