Bently Nevada 200150-23-05 Accelerometer: Trendmaster 2000 & Pro Sensor

Introduction

When unplanned machine downtime threatens your production targets, the Bently Nevada 200150-23-05 accelerometer delivers reliable vibration monitoring. This general-purpose sensor is designed for use with Trendmaster 2000 or Trendmaster Pro systems, providing accurate data to help you maintain equipment health.

Technical Specifications Breakdown

The Bently Nevada 200150-23-05 offers a mounted resonant frequency exceeding 20 kHz (>1200 kcpm), ensuring high-frequency response for early fault detection. Its quiescent current is less than 800 µA, indicating low power consumption for continuous operation. The mounting stud option (23) converts 3/8-24 to M16x2.0 with a 1-3/8 inch hex plate stud, simplifying installation on various machinery. Multiple approvals including CSA, ATEX, and IECEx (option 05) make it suitable for hazardous environments.

Industry Applications

In petrochemical plants, the 200150-23-05 monitors pumps and compressors for early signs of bearing wear or imbalance. In power generation, it tracks turbine vibrations to prevent catastrophic failures. The sensor's robust design and approvals support reliable operation in demanding industrial settings.

Installation & Setup Guidance

Mount the accelerometer using the provided stud option, applying a mounting torque between 2.7 to 6.8 N·m (2 to 5 ft·lbf) for secure attachment. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and flat to optimize frequency response. Connect the sensor to a compatible Trendmaster 2000 or Trendmaster Pro module using the correct wiring polarity.

Maintenance & Reliability

Periodically inspect the sensor and cabling for physical damage or corrosion. Verify output bias voltage remains within specification to confirm proper operation. The hermetically sealed design protects against moisture, extending service life in humid environments.

Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice

Before ordering, confirm your system compatibility with Trendmaster 2000 or Trendmaster Pro. Verify the mounting thread (3/8-24 female) matches your installation.
