Corrosion-Resistant Plastic Probe Housing with Standoff
Introducing the Bently Nevada 31000-28-05-70-066-00-02. This is a unique proximity probe housing made from durable, conductive plastic. It features a long 7.0-inch standoff adapter, moving the probe away from the mounting surface. Perfect for corrosive or wet environments.
Part Number Configuration Guide
Each segment of 31000-28-05-70-066-00-02 defines a critical feature:
- 31000: Base Model = Plastic Proximity Probe Housing
- 28: Probe = 3300 XL 8 mm, Multiple Approvals
- 05: Cable = 0.5 Meter Length
- 70: Standoff = 7.0 Inches Long (Key Feature)
- 066: Penetration = 6.6 Inches into Standoff
- 00: Fittings = Without Fittings
- 02: Mounting = 3/4-14 NPT

Expert FAQ & Selection Guide
Why choose a plastic (31000) housing over an aluminum (21000) one?
Choose the plastic 31000 for superior corrosion resistance in wet, salty, or chemically aggressive atmospheres where aluminum could corrode.
What does “conductive plastic” mean and why is it important?
The plastic material contains special fibers. It prevents static electricity buildup. This is a safety requirement for installations in explosive atmospheres.
When do I need a 7-inch standoff adapter?
Use a long standoff when you need to mount the housing away from a hot surface (like a steam turbine casing) or to navigate around pipework and obstacles.
Is this housing as strong as a metal one?
It is certified for impact resistance (4-7 Joules) and can support over 200 lbs. It is very robust for industrial use but has different mechanical properties than metal.
Can I use this in a high-pressure washdown area?
Yes. The NEMA 4X and IP66 ratings certify it is protected against hose-directed water, making it suitable for washdown areas.
