Industry Applications
The 200350-09-00-01 is ideal for vibration monitoring on rotating equipment such as pumps, motors, fans, and compressors. Its rugged stainless steel housing and IP68 rating make it suitable for harsh industrial environments, including those with high humidity or washdown requirements. The wide frequency range captures both low-speed and high-speed machinery dynamics, enabling comprehensive condition assessment.
Installation and Mounting
Proper installation is critical for accurate readings. The accelerometer features a 1/4-28 female mounting thread. Use a mounting torque between 2 to 5 ft-lb (2.7 to 6.8 N-m). Ensure the mounting surface is flat and clean for optimal coupling. The sensor has no mounting stud (option 09), so plan for direct mounting or use an appropriate adhesive or stud kit. The top-mounted 2-pin Mil-C-5015 connector simplifies cable routing.
Maintenance and Reliability
With no moving parts and a welded hermetic seal, the 200350-09-00-01 requires minimal maintenance. Periodic checks of the mounting integrity and cable condition are recommended. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion, and the IP68 rating protects against dust and prolonged immersion. This durability translates to long service life and reduced replacement costs.
Selection Guide
Before purchasing, verify that the 200350-09-00-01 meets your application requirements. Confirm the mounting thread compatibility, cable length, and connector type. Ensure your monitoring system supports the 100 mV/g sensitivity and constant current excitation of 2–20 mA.
