A standout feature is the ceramic shear sensing element, which provides excellent transverse sensitivity (≤7%) and amplitude linearity (±1%). This design enhances accuracy in vibration analysis.

Applications & Use Cases for the 200350-02-00-01

This accelerometer is well-suited for machinery health monitoring in industries such as oil and gas, power generation, and manufacturing. For example, it can detect early bearing faults in pumps or compressors, helping prevent unplanned downtime. Its wide frequency range also supports both low-speed and high-speed rotating equipment.

Installation & Setup Guide

Mount the 200350-02-00-01 using the ¼-28 female thread with a torque of 2 to 5 ft-lb (2.7 to 6.8 N·m). Ensure the mounting surface is clean and flat for optimal coupling. The top-mounted 2-pin Mil-C-5015 connector simplifies wiring, and the stainless steel stud option (¼-28 to M8 x 1.25) provides flexibility.

Maintenance & Reliability Tips

Regularly inspect the cable and connector for damage, especially in condensing humidity environments. The welded hermetic seal and IP68 rating protect against moisture ingress, but periodic checks ensure long-term reliability. Follow Bently Nevada guidelines for calibration intervals.

Compatibility & Integration

The 200350-02-00-01 works with standard vibration monitoring systems that accept IEPE sensors with constant current excitation (2 to 20 mA). Its output bias voltage of 8 to 12 VDC is compatible with most data acquisition modules. For system-specific integration, consult the Bently Nevada documentation.
