Key Technical Specifications

• High-strength machined aluminum construction provides exceptional structural durability while keeping total assembly weight under 0.85 kg.
• The extension adds 57 mm additional clearance to increase overall housing height to 150 mm.
• Precision-machined flat hubs measuring 91 mm across flats allow easy tool access during field installation.
• Heavy-duty anodized surface treatment protects internal probe wiring against corrosive chemicals and salt spray.
• Industrial sealing gaskets maintain a dustproof protection rating up to IP66 environmental standards.
• The rugged enclosure operates continuously across broad temperature ranges from -40 °C to +121 °C.
• Solid structural design dampens external mechanical shock and severe industrial vibrations up to 40 g peak.
• Metallic housing shielding blocks high-frequency electrical noise and suppresses electromagnetic interference around sensor leads.
• Non-magnetic alloy material prevents signal distortion and preserves high proximity probe measurement linearity within ±1 percent.
• We cover every genuine unit with a full 12-month warranty for maximum operational safety.

Field Installation Guidelines

• Technicians align the extension body threads directly onto the primary 03818016 housing base unit.
• Operators apply standard wrenches onto the 91 mm hub flats to tighten the assembly securely.
• Maintenance crews verify internal seal seating to prevent moisture ingress before starting machinery operations.

Packaging List and Express Delivery

• The factory package contains one 03818022 aluminum extension body inside a protective box.
