Features:
- Low-frequency velocity response: The transducer covers fan assemblies beginning at 90 rpm and extends through motor and speed-reducer vibration components.
- Defined mounting hardware: The plate stud adapts the transducer to a 1/4-inch NPT mounting point.
- Long included lead: Connection option 99 supplies a 32-foot cable as part of the ordered configuration.
The Velomitor CT converts casing vibration velocity into an electrical signal for machinery condition or protection channels.
Its usefulness depends on a rigid mounting point that carries the rotor-related vibration into the transducer body.
The exact option code also determines the mounting adapter, cable scope and approval identity needed at receiving.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Machine location: Select a bearing housing or casing point that transmits the vibration of interest.
- Surface preparation: Keep the mounting face clean, flat and rigid so the transducer follows machine motion.
- Stud identity: Preserve the 3/8-24 to 1/4-inch NPT plate-stud arrangement defined by option 09.
- Torque control: Apply the published mounting torque without loading the cable or connector.
- Polarity: Account for pin A becoming positive relative to pin B when velocity is from base to top.
- Input bias: Verify the monitor channel accepts the documented 10.1 VDC nominal bias.
- Cable route: Protect the included 32-foot lead from tensile load, abrasion and high-noise power wiring.
- Hazardous area: Match the delivered approval marking, entity limits and barrier arrangement to the site design.
- Low reading: Check mounting stiffness and machine-to-casing vibration transfer before condemning the sensor.
- False signal: Inspect the mounting surface, cable shielding, connector condition and local structural resonance.
- Bias fault: Compare channel voltage and polarity with the wiring record to separate sensor and input problems.
- Trend comparison: Record fan speed, motor state and reducer condition when comparing old and replacement signals.
- Cooling-tower fans: Monitors low-frequency casing vibration on fan, bearing and drive assemblies.
- Air-cooled heat exchangers: Tracks velocity changes associated with fan, motor and speed reducer behavior.
- Slow-speed machinery: Provides a velocity signal where the documented operating speed is at least 90 rpm.
- Hazardous-area monitoring: Supports approved installations when the exact marking and entity-control drawing are observed.
