-
Velocity Range: 25 mm/s (1 in/s) at +22°C with casing vibration at 100 Hz and 10 kΩ load, providing a wide measurement span.
-
Coil Resistance: 1.25 kΩ ±5%, with locked coil inductance of 125 mH typical, ensuring stable electrical characteristics.
-
Operating and Storage Temperature: -29°C to +121°C for the 9200 model, suitable for harsh industrial settings.
-
Environment: Dust and moisture resistant; relative humidity up to 95% noncondensing (100% non-submerged with integral cable).
-
Case Material: Anodized aluminum A204; gasket material: Neoprene.
-
Dimensions: Height 102 mm (4 in) typical, diameter 41 mm (1.6 in) typical; weight 300 grams (10.5 ounces).
Real-World Applications
The Bently Nevada 9200-09-01-01-00 excels in applications requiring reliable vibration monitoring for predictive maintenance. Typical use cases include:
-
Pumps and Compressors: Mounted on bearing housings to detect early signs of imbalance or misalignment, reducing unplanned downtime.
-
Electric Motors: Integrated into condition monitoring systems for continuous velocity measurement, helping schedule maintenance based on actual vibration trends.
-
Fan and Blower Systems: Ideal for monitoring casing vibration in HVAC and industrial ventilation equipment, where its two-wire design simplifies wiring.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Proper installation of the Bently Nevada 9200-09-01-01-00 ensures optimal performance. Follow these guidelines:
-
Mounting: Use the circular base with 1/4-20 UNC stud (Mounting Base Option 01). Securely fasten to a flat, clean surface on the machine casing. Orient the transducer at the angle of calibration (0° ±180°, 15 Hz minimum operating frequency; option 09).
-
Connector: Option 01 is top mount with no cable. Use appropriate cabling with a 10 kΩ calibration load between Terminal A and B for proper output.
-
Termination: Ensure the output is taken across pins A and B. Terminate with the specified load to maintain sensitivity accuracy.
-
Environment: Although dust and moisture resistant, avoid submersion unless integral cable is ordered. Keep relative humidity below 95% noncondensing.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
Before purchasing the Bently Nevada 9200-09-01-01-00, verify the following:
-
Mounting Angle Requirements: Option 09 allows 0° ±180° orientation with 15 Hz minimum frequency. Ensure your application's vibration frequencies are within range.
-
Cable Configuration: Connector Option 01 is top mount without cable. If you need an integral cable, order the appropriate variant.
-
Agency Approvals: Option 00 means no approvals required. For hazardous areas, select a different approval option.
