The 21000-00-00-40-040-02-02 is an external proximity probe housing assembly from the 21000 series, compliant with the American Petroleum Institute's (API) 670 Standard and certified as a CSA Type 4 explosion-proof enclosure for hazardous areas. Constructed from an aluminum main body and a 304 stainless steel sleeve, this configuration includes a 4.0-inch standoff adapter, a 4.0-inch probe penetration sleeve, and two 3/4-14 NPT explosion-proof electrical fittings (with one metal plug included). It utilizes a 3/4-14 NPT base thread for connection to the machine bearing housing or casing, and contains no proximity probe or extension cable.
Configured with a reverse mount construction
Certified as a CSA Type 4 (equivalent to IP66) enclosure
Equipped with two 3/4-14 NPT explosion-proof electrical fittings
In industrial applications, this housing allows for the online insertion, extraction, replacement, or static gap adjustment of proximity probes simply by unscrewing the dome cover without requiring a machinery shutdown or system depressurization. The fully sealed construction ensures that internal coaxial connectors remain completely isolated from bearing housing oil mist, rain, and corrosive environmental media.
The 21000 (aluminum) and 24701 (stainless steel) Proximity Probe Housing Assemblies are available with Canadian Standards Association (CSA) approvals for explosion-proof applications in hazardous areas. Both housings are fully compliant with the American Petroleum Institute's (API) 670 Standard for externally mounted proximity probe housings.

Thermal Power Generation
Monitors shaft radial vibration and axial displacement in large steam turbines and generators, providing water and oil-mist protection.
Hydroelectric Power Generation
Monitors runout of upper, lower, and water guide bearings in hydro-generator units, resisting humid water vapor.
Nuclear Power Generation
Monitors shaft conditions of main feedwater pumps and coolant pumps, meeting hazardous area safety ratings with high reliability.
Petroleum Refining
Used for explosion-proof monitoring of flue gas turbines and rich gas compressors in Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units (FCCU) to prevent flammable gases from contacting probes.
Offshore Oil & Gas Platforms
Monitors the running status of crude oil export pumps and water injection pumps on platforms, resisting high salt spray and marine rainstorms.
Coal Chemical Industry
Monitors rotational speed and axial displacement of high-power centrifugal compressors in Air Separation Units (ASU), isolating dust.
For installation, ensure 5 to 7 turns of thread engagement on the 3/4-14 NPT thread and apply thread sealant to prevent loosening from machine vibration. When replacing probes, do not twist the internal coaxial cable, and inspect and grease the O-ring during cover reassembly to maintain the IP66 seal against water and oil mist. Periodically check the 4.0-inch standoff and sleeve mounting to prevent high-frequency vibration from the extended cantilever during operation.
The 21000-00-00-40-040-02-02 connects securely to the bearing housing via a precision-machined 3/4-14 NPT main thread, featuring two explosion-proof electrical fittings to provide industrial-grade dustproof, waterproof (IP66), and explosion-proof protection.
What type of device is the 21000-00-00-40-040-02-02?
An aluminum proximity probe housing assembly.
Does the 21000-00-00-40-040-02-02 include an internal sensor probe?
No. The prefix codes -00-00 mean the configuration excludes an internal sensor probe and probe coaxial cable.
What is the standoff adapter length of the 21000-00-00-40-040-02-02?
4.0 inches.
What determines the total length from the housing base to the sleeve tip of the 21000-00-00-40-040-02-02?
The 4.0-inch standoff adapter length and the 4.0-inch penetration depth . The combined nominal length is 8.0 inches.
