BENTLY 177230-01-01-05 Vibration Monitoring Sensor

177230-01-01-055

The BENTLY 177230 – 01 – 01 – 05 is designed with a clear purpose – to precisely detect and convey information about the vibration in industrial machinery. It functions as a loop – powered device, making it both energy – efficient and easy to integrate into existing industrial systems. By continuously monitoring vibration, it provides real – time data that is essential for maintaining the optimal performance of machinery. For instance, in large manufacturing plants where numerous machines are in constant operation, the accurate vibration data from this seismic transmitter can help operators identify early signs of mechanical wear, misalignment, or imbalance in equipment such as motors, pumps, and compressors. This allows for timely maintenance and preventive measures, minimizing the risk of unexpected breakdowns and costly production disruptions.

One of the key strengths of the BENTLY 177230 – 01 – 01 – 05 is its simplicity in design and operation. This simplicity not only reduces the need for extensive operator training but also minimizes maintenance and service costs. Its straightforward installation process means that it can be quickly integrated into a programmable logic controller (PLC) or any controls system that is part of a plant asset condition monitoring solution. The 4 – 20 mA output signal, which is proportional to the vibration velocity, is an industry – standard format, ensuring seamless communication with other components in the monitoring network. This standardization also allows for easy replacement or expansion of the monitoring system as needed.​

The device’s wide frequency response range, from 10 Hz to 1 kHz, enables it to capture a broad spectrum of vibration frequencies commonly found in industrial machinery. This comprehensive frequency coverage ensures that even subtle changes in vibration patterns can be detected, providing a more detailed and accurate picture of the machinery’s health. Additionally, its ability to operate within a temperature range of – 40 °C to + 85 °C makes it suitable for deployment in a variety of harsh industrial environments, whether it’s a cold outdoor installation in a mining site or a high – temperature manufacturing facility.
