- Configurable Mounting Options and Hazardous Area Certification
The 330500-04-02 operates as a specialized Velomitor Piezo-velocity Sensor, providing reliable absolute vibration measurement (relative to free space) for bearing housing, casing, or structural monitoring applications. It continuously converts mechanical vibration into electrical signals through its piezoelectric sensing element and processes these signals through embedded integrated electronics to produce accurate velocity output. Seamless orientation flexibility is standard with the 330500-04-02, as it can be mounted vertically, horizontally, or at any angle without performance degradation. The 330500-04-02 has made improvements in several areas over previous velocity sensor designs in addition to incorporating solid-state electronics that eliminate mechanical wear and degradation.
The 330500-04-02 provides essential vibration measurement functions critical to machinery protection systems, and is a key component of the monitoring path, directly affecting the proper detection of rotor-related malfunctions such as unbalance and misalignment. Proper installation of the 330500-04-02 on bearing housing or machine casing is required for effective operation. The 330500-04-02 occupies minimal mounting space and is always positioned to ensure optimal transmission of rotor vibration to the transducer location.
For displacement measurement applications, the 330500-04-02 requires careful consideration of electrical noise management. In addition to standard velocity output operation, the integration process also performs signal conditioning. The 330500-04-02 displacement configuration executes measurement using the internal circuitry specified in the transducer options. Using this method, the system continually monitors signal integrity. If the system detects that electrical noise from interference and the transducer circuit is being amplified during integration, it may degrade performance of the 330500-04-02 transducer and produce inaccurate displacement data, requiring proper grounding and shielding practices.
The 330500-04-02 Bently Nevada Velomitor Piezo-velocity Sensor may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
