Our 177230 Seismic Transmitter is a self-contained piezo-accelerometer that offers condition monitoring of general-purpose machinery with rolling element bearings. The 177230 produces 4 to 20 mA primary signal outputs to a control system and a secondary dynamic signal for diagnostics. It is suitable for motors, pumps and small reciprocating compressors where accelerometer monitoring is appropriate. Bently Nevada offers CSA/NRTL/C, ATEX/IECEx certifications for Hazardous Areas with potentially flammable atmospheres. The product has a sensitivity of 10.2 mV/m/s^2 (100 mV/g) ± 20% and a frequency response of 10 Hz to 1 kHz (600 cpm to 60 kcpm) ± 10% and 1Hz to 10 kHz (60cpm to 600 kcpm) ± 3 dB.
The 177230 Seismic Transmitter is a simple, loop-powered device that can be quickly and easily installed. It can be integrated into your programmable logic controller (PLC) or controls system linked to a plant asset condition monitoring solution. Its simple design reduces training, maintenance, and service costs. The transducer helps you better manage downtime, optimize maintenance planning, and avoid unforeseen catastrophic failures of machinery assets. The 177230 Seismic Transmitter incorporates robust CM design for reliability and implements an industry-standard 4 to 20 mA loop-powered transmitter.
Easily Installed and Integrated
• - Interfaces with PLCs and control systems (including DCS and SCADA)
• - Requires only a short learning curve for operations and maintenance –through a familiar interface similar to that for connecting other PLC or control system inputs
• - Requires no field configuration or adjustments
