Product Overview
When machinery vibration threatens uptime and reliability, the Bently Nevada 200350-00-00-00 200350 Accelerometer provides the precise data you need for condition monitoring. This rugged sensor is designed for continuous operation in demanding industrial environments, delivering accurate acceleration measurements to help you detect early signs of bearing wear, imbalance, or misalignment.
Technical Specifications Breakdown
The 200350-00-00-00 offers a sensitivity of 100 mV/g ±20% (10.2 mV/m/s² ±20%), ensuring consistent output across its measurement range of ±50g. Its frequency response spans 30 to 600,000 cpm (0.5 to 10,000 Hz), covering both low-speed and high-speed machinery. The sensor operates with an excitation voltage of 18 to 28 VDC and a constant current excitation of 2 to 20 mA, making it compatible with most standard vibration monitoring systems.
Output bias voltage is 8 to 12 VDC, with an output impedance of less than 150 ohms. The discharge time constant is ≥0.3 seconds, and settling time (within 1% of bias) is 2.0 seconds. These parameters ensure stable, reliable signal transmission even in electrically noisy environments.
Industry Applications
This accelerometer excels in applications such as rotating machinery monitoring, including pumps, motors, fans, and compressors. Its wide frequency range and high shock survivability (5,000 g pk) make it suitable for both steady-state and transient vibration analysis. The IP68 enclosure rating allows deployment in wet, condensing environments without risk of ingress.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the 200350-00-00-00 using the 1/4-28 female mounting thread. Apply a mounting torque of 2 to 5 ft-lb (2.7 to 6.8 N-m) to ensure proper mechanical coupling. The sensor features a top-mounted 2-Pin Mil-C-5015 electrical connector for straightforward wiring. Verify that the excitation voltage and constant current supply match the specified ranges before energizing the system.
Maintenance & Reliability
With a welded hermetic seal and stainless steel housing, this accelerometer requires minimal maintenance. The ceramic shear sensing element provides long-term stability and resistance to thermal drift. Periodic inspection of the mounting integrity and cable connections is recommended to maintain measurement accuracy. The sensor operates reliably from -65°F to +250 ºF (-54°C to +121 ºC) and in 100% relative humidity (condensing, non-submerged).
Buying Guide
When selecting the 200350-00-00-00, confirm that your monitoring system supports the required excitation voltage and constant current. The mounting stud option (00 = ¼-28 SS w/ Brass tip, 0.5”) is included. Please verify current lifecycle status and availability with SpareTechPLC before ordering. As a trusted supplier, SpareTechPLC ensures genuine Bently Nevada parts with fast shipping.
