Industry Applications
The Vibro Meter 913-402-000-013/A2-E040-F0-G000 excels in turbine shaft vibration monitoring, compressor protection, and pump speed measurement where explosion-proof ratings are mandatory. Its Ex i environment rating (Environment A=2) allows safe use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The 4.0 m extension cable (E040) provides flexibility for mounting in confined spaces.
Maintenance and Long-Term Reliability
Self-locking miniature coaxial connectors ensure secure connections even under vibration. The IP68-rated transducer head resists ingress of dust and water, while the optional FEP sheath offers chemical resistance and low permeability to liquids and gases. These features minimize maintenance intervals and reduce total cost of ownership. The stainless steel body and Torlon tip withstand harsh industrial conditions, delivering years of dependable service.
Selection Guide and Purchasing Advice
When ordering the Vibro Meter 913-402-000-013/A2-E040-F0-G000, verify the environment (Explosive Ex i) and extension cable length (4.0 m ±400 mm). As a trusted supplier, PLC Source PRO (ubest101) ensures fast fulfillment and genuine parts. Always confirm compatibility with your IQS900 signal conditioner.
