Bently Nevada 200355-11-00-00 Accelerometer: 100 mV/g Vibration Sensor

Technical Specifications Breakdown

Key parameters for the 200355-11-00-00 are listed below for quick reference:

Industry Applications for Reliable Vibration Sensing

The wide frequency range (0.5-10,000 Hz) captures both low-speed and high-speed machinery faults. With a measurement range of ±50 g, it handles moderate vibration levels common in rotating equipment. The IP68 enclosure allows submersion in condensing humidity, making it suitable for washdown areas or outdoor installations.

Installation and Setup Guidance

Mount the 200355-11-00-00 using the M6x1 adhesive stud mount (option 11). Clean the mounting surface thoroughly to ensure proper coupling. Apply the recommended mounting torque of 2 to 5 ft-lb (2.7 to 6.8 N-m) to the 1/4-28 female thread. Connect via the 2-pin Mil-C-5015 connector. Use constant current excitation between 2 to 20 mA and excitation voltage of 18 to 28 VDC. Allow at least 2.0 seconds settling time after power-up for bias stabilization.

Maintenance and Reliability

Periodically inspect the cable and connector for damage or corrosion. Verify output bias voltage remains between 8 to 12 VDC. The welded hermetic seal and stainless steel housing protect against moisture and contaminants. Although rated for 100% relative humidity (condensing, non-submerged), avoid prolonged submersion. The ceramic shear sensing element provides long-term stability and accuracy.

Compatibility and Integration

The accelerometer outputs a standard 100 mV/g signal compatible with most vibration monitoring systems, including Bently Nevada rack-based monitors and data collectors. The low output impedance (<150 ohms) allows long cable runs without signal degradation. Use with constant current power supplies to maintain bias voltage and signal integrity.

Selection Guide and Purchasing Advice

When selecting a vibration sensor, verify that the sensitivity, frequency range, and environmental rating match your application. Contact AutoDCSTech for current lifecycle status and availability before ordering. Our team can help confirm compatibility with your existing monitoring system.
