Description

The Bently Nevada 9200-06-02-10-00 is a two-wire Seismoprobe velocity transducer engineered for the continuous monitoring of absolute bearing housing, casing, or structural vibrations. Utilizing proven moving-coil technology, this transducer provides a voltage output directly proportional to the vibration velocity of the monitored surface. It is designed to be robust and less sensitive to impulsive excitation or mechanical impact compared to solid-state accelerometers with integrated electronics.

Features

• Measures absolute casing and structural vibration
• Two-wire system design for simplified integration
• Sensitivity: 20 mV/mm/s (500 mV/in/s)
• Moving-coil technology for high durability in industrial environments
• Side-mount connector configuration
• M10 x 1 mounting stud

Applications

• Steam and Gas Turbines: Monitoring absolute casing vibration in high-temperature or legacy systems.
• Centrifugal and Axial Compressors: Detecting unbalance and resonance via housing vibration analysis.
• Large Electric Motors and Generators: Tracking mechanical looseness and alignment issues.
• Industrial Pumps and Blowers: Providing continuous bearing housing stability monitoring.
• Gearboxes: Identifying low-to-mid frequency vibration signatures.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Surface Preparation: Ensure the mounting surface is flat, clean, and free of paint, oil, or debris to ensure accurate vibration transmission.
• Mounting: Drill and tap the mounting hole specifically for the M10 x 1 stud. Use a wrench on the designated hex flats to tighten the transducer securely.
• Torque: Apply sufficient torque to ensure a rigid connection, but avoid over-tightening to prevent thread damage.
• Orientation: Mount the sensor in the required axis (vertical or horizontal) to capture the intended vibration vectors.
• Handling: As a precision instrument, handle with care to avoid damage to the internal coil assembly.
