Bently Nevada 200150-05-CN General Purpose Accelerometer for Trendmaster Systems

Product Introduction

When reliable vibration monitoring is critical for rotating machinery health, the Bently Nevada 200150-05-CN provides a proven solution. This general purpose accelerometer is designed for use with Trendmaster 2000 and Trendmaster Pro systems, delivering accurate acceleration measurements in industrial environments. Manufactured in the U.S.A., the 200150-05-CN features a ceramic shear sensing element and 316L stainless steel housing for durability.

Technical Specifications Breakdown

The 200150-05-CN offers a sensitivity of 10.2 mV/(m/s²) (100 mV/g) at 80 Hz, with a measurement range of ±245 m/s² (±25 g). Its frequency range spans 10 to 1000 Hz (600 to 60,000 cpm), referenced to 80 Hz, making it suitable for general machinery monitoring. The mounted resonant frequency exceeds 20 kHz (>1200 kcpm), ensuring accurate readings across the operating band. Amplitude linearity is within ±2% from 1 to 10 g peak, and transverse sensitivity is ≤7%.

The accelerometer requires an excitation voltage of 4.7 to 5.5 Vdc and has a quiescent current of less than 800 µA. Output bias voltage is +2.5 ± 0.23 Vdc, with a settling time of ≤300 ms. The unit operates over a temperature range of -40 °C to +105 °C (-40 °F to +221 °F) and can withstand axial shock limits of 49,050 m/s² pk (5,000 g pk). Sealing is hermetic at 5×10⁻⁸ atm·cc/s maximum.

Industry Applications

In general application scenarios, the 200150-05-CN excels at monitoring vibration on pumps, fans, compressors, and motors. Its wide frequency response and robust construction make it ideal for continuous condition monitoring in industries such as oil and gas, power generation, and manufacturing. The accelerometer's ability to operate in 100% condensing humidity and its wide temperature range ensure reliable performance in harsh environments.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the 200150-05-CN using the 3/8-24 female thread with a mounting torque of 2.7 to 6.8 N·m (2 to 5 ft·lbf). The mounting stud option 05 provides a 3/8-24 to 1/4-28 UNF 1-3/8 inch hex plate stud for flexible installation. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and flat to achieve optimal frequency response. Allow a 24-hour cure time for adhesive mounting if applicable. Connect the accelerometer to a compatible Trendmaster system using proper cabling and verify polarity: SIG+ positive with respect to SIG-.

Maintenance & Reliability

Regular inspection of the accelerometer and its mounting is recommended to ensure consistent performance. Check for any signs of corrosion or damage to the 316L stainless steel housing. Verify that the output bias voltage remains within +2.5 ± 0.23 Vdc during operation. The hermetically sealed design protects against moisture ingress, but periodic verification of sealing integrity is advised. Replace the unit if sensitivity drifts beyond ±12% at 80 Hz.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

Before ordering the 200150-05-CN, verify compatibility with your Trendmaster 2000 or Trendmaster Pro system. Confirm the required mounting stud option and approvals country-specific (CN) designation.
