Selection Suggestions
-
Choose for Bently Nevada 3500 series systems requiring 4-channel high-temperature accelerometer monitoring for gas turbines, steam turbines, or compressors.
-
Ensure the accelerometer is compatible with high-temperature operation (up to +250°C).
-
For SIL 2 applications, use with voting logic (2-out-of-3) and proof-testing every 24 months.
-
Configure integration based on application: displacement (µm) for bearing vibration, velocity (mm/s) for casing vibration.
-
Pair with compatible high-temperature IEPE accelerometers (e.g., Bently Nevada 330500 series).
Precautions
-
Sensor Compatibility – The Bently Nevada 190065-00-01-03-01-01 is designed for IEPE accelerometers. Ensure the sensor has 2–20mA constant current capability.
-
Cable Temperature Rating – Use cables rated for the same temperature as the sensor. Standard cables degrade above +150°C.
-
Grounding – Proper grounding is critical to prevent noise pickup. Connect sensor cable shields to the module common terminal at the module end only.
-
Filter Selection – For high-temperature applications, use the 0.5Hz high-pass filter to remove DC offset. Low-pass filter should be set based on machine speed (10kHz for high-speed turbines, 1kHz for slow-speed equipment).
-
Bias Voltage Monitoring – The Bently Nevada 190065-00-01-03-01-01 monitors sensor bias voltage (typically 10–12V). A deviation >10% indicates a sensor or cable fault.
-
Calibration – Factory calibration valid for 24 months. Recalibrate using a certified shaker table or signal calibrator.
-
ESD Handling – Use ESD-safe practices when handling the module. High-temperature accelerometer inputs are sensitive to electrostatic discharge.
