Expert FAQ & Selection Advice
Why would I order the “without fittings” (00) option?
This saves cost if you already have standard conduit fittings in stock at your plant or prefer to use specific brands/types that match your existing site infrastructure.
What exactly is missing in the “00” fitting option?
The kit does not include the 3/4″ NPT plug, the 3/4″ to 1/2″ reducer, and the cable seal grip with grommets. You must provide these separately to seal the housing.
Is the 9.6-inch penetration a common size?
Yes, 9.6 inches is a versatile, medium-length penetration. It fits many pump and motor applications where the shaft is not extremely deep.
Can I add fittings to this housing later?
Yes. You can purchase standard 3/4″ NPT plugs and cable glands separately. Ensure they are rated for hazardous areas if required for your installation.
How do I choose between 5.0″, 9.6″, and 13.5″ penetration?
Check your machinery drawing for the “probe gap” and mechanical clearance. The penetration must be long enough to allow the probe tip to reach the required measurement point on the shaft.
