Application & Failure Scenarios
The sensor provides an acceleration signal for machinery vibration measurement. When a channel behaves unexpectedly, check the complete measurement path rather than replacing the sensor based on symptoms alone.
| Abnormal vibration readingCompare the signal with operating conditions and verify the sensor mounting and cable connection. | No signalInspect the sensor connection, cable continuity, supply and monitoring input. |
| Unstable measurementCheck cable shielding, connector condition, mounting security and electrical interference. | Replacement selectionMatch sensitivity, frequency response, mounting thread, connector and electrical requirements. |
Installation & Selection Checks
Confirm mechanical fit, signal compatibility and installation requirements before commissioning.
Check the 1/4-28 UNF tapped mounting hole and the actual mounting surface.
Verify the mating connector, shielded twisted-pair cable and available cable clearance.
Confirm the monitor's sensor supply, current requirements, sensitivity and input range.
Check the exact unit's required hazardous-area approval and installation conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions
The nominal sensitivity is 100 mV/g, ±5% at 25°C. Frequency response is 0.7–9,000 Hz at ±10% and 0.4–14,000 Hz at ±3 dB.
Allow for an 18–30 Vdc supply, 2–10 mA current regulation, a maximum 100 Ω output impedance and a shielded twisted-pair cable no longer than 100 ft. Verify the mating connector and monitor interface.
