Installation Guidance

This housing is for direct mounting. Ensure the mounting hole is clear and threads are clean. Insert the probe into the long sleeve carefully. Use a torque wrench to tighten the retaining nut to 260 in-lb. Always use the correct size cable seal grip from the provided kit to maintain environmental ratings.

Target Applications

Monitoring large diameter shafts on hydro turbines or wind turbine gearboxes.
Applications requiring the probe to pass through thick thermal insulation layers.
Special machinery with exceptionally deep bearing housings or casings.
Custom installations where standard penetration lengths are insufficient.

Technical Support & Frequently Asked Questions

What does “Penetration Option: 133” specifically mean?

It indicates the distance the probe tip extends from the housing mounting face is 13.3 inches (338 mm). This is the maximum standard penetration available in the 31000 series.

Is mechanical support needed for the long 13.3-inch probe extension?

In most fixed installations, no extra support is needed. The probe sleeve is rigid. For applications with very high vibration, consult our engineers. They can assess if additional stabilization is recommended.

Can I use a different cable length with this housing?

The 1.0-meter cable is integrated into the probe assembly (Option 10). To change the cable length, you must select a different probe/housing part number at the time of order.

What is the lead time and how do we get a quote?

We stock popular models for quick shipment. Get a formal quote and lead time by contacting our sales team. We ship internationally using FedEx, UPS, and DHL services.

What is a common pitfall when installing long-penetration housings?

Not verifying the full mechanical clearance. Before installation, confirm the total installed length (housing + 13.3″ probe) does not interfere with other components inside the machine during operation or maintenance.

How do I know if I need the 13.3-inch model versus a shorter one?

Measure the distance from the mounting surface to the target you need to monitor. If this “air gap” is close to or exceeds 10 inches, the 31000-28-10-00-133 model is likely necessary. Send us your drawing for verification.
