Bently Nevada 9200-06-02-05-00 Two-Wire Velocity Seismoprobe Transducer

The Bently Nevada 9200-06-02-05-00 is a durable two-wire velocity transducer. This device measures absolute casing vibration on rotating machinery. It works well for turbines, compressors, pumps, and fans. The Bently Nevada 9200-06-02-05-00 provides reliable data without external signal conditioning.

Key Technical Specifications

This transducer offers a sensitivity of 20 mV/mm/s (500 mV/in/s). The tolerance stays within ±5% when properly terminated. Calibration uses a 10 kΩ load between terminals A and B. Output is taken directly across pins A and B. The dynamic operating range reaches 2.54 mm (0.100 in) peak-to-peak maximum displacement.

Velocity range hits 25 mm/s (1 in/s) at +22°C. This measurement uses 100 Hz casing vibration with a 10 kΩ load. Coil resistance sits at 1.25 kΩ ±5%. Locked coil inductance is 125 mH typical. The sensitivity temperature coefficient is 0.2% per °C.

Mounting and Connector Options

The mounting angle option is 06 at 0° ±100°. Minimum operating frequency starts at 10 Hz (600 cpm). Connector option 02 provides a side mount with no cable. This side mount positions the connector radially on the housing. Mounting base option 05 uses no circular base. Instead it has a 1/2-20 UNF-3A stud. Agency approval option 00 means no approvals are required.

The side mount connector allows installation in tight axial spaces. The 0° orientation provides wide angular tolerance of ±100°. The 1/2-20 UNF thread matches many standard mounting holes.

Environmental and Temperature Ratings

Operating and storage temperature ranges from -29°C to +121°C (-20°F to +250°F). The case uses anodized aluminum A204 for corrosion resistance. Gasket material is Neoprene for the 9200 series. The device resists dust and moisture effectively. Relative humidity tolerance reaches 95% noncondensing.

The transducer handles 100% humidity when ordered with an integral cable (non-submerged). This makes it suitable for humid industrial environments. Avoid direct water immersion without proper cable protection.

Mechanical Dimensions and Weight

Typical height measures 102 mm (4 inches). This depends on the selected connector option. Diameter is 41 mm (1.6 inches) typical. Weight of this configuration is 300 grams (10.5 ounces) typical. The side mount connector adds a radial profile to the housing.

The Bently Nevada 9200-06-02-05-00 has a lower overall height than top mount versions. The side connector exits perpendicular to the transducer axis. This design suits machinery with limited space above the mounting point.

Installation Guide

Follow these steps for proper installation:

1. Clean the threaded mounting hole on the machinery casing.

2. Apply anti-seize compound to the 1/2-20 UNF stud threads.

3. Screw the transducer into the hole by hand until snug.

4. Tighten with a wrench no more than one additional turn.

5. Connect a mating plug to the side mount connector.

6. Terminate the output with a 10 kΩ load resistor.

7. Route the cable away from hot or moving parts.

8. Secure the cable with clips every 30 cm (12 inches).

Do not overtighten the 1/2-20 UNF stud into the mounting hole. Keep the side connector free from mechanical strain. Avoid exceeding +121°C casing temperature.

Common FAQs (3-5 questions)

Q1: What mating plug fits the side mount connector?
The side mount uses a standard industrial circular connector. Bently Nevada offers a matching plug separately. Check the connector type before ordering.

Q2: What is the advantage of side mount vs top mount?
Side mount reduces the overall installed height. The Bently Nevada 9200-06-02-05-00 fits where top clearance is very limited.

Q3: Can I use this transducer below 10 Hz vibration?
The output will drop significantly below 10 Hz. This model is designed for machinery running above 600 cpm only.

Q4: How do I check if the transducer is damaged?
Measure coil resistance between pin A and pin B. A healthy unit shows 1.25 kΩ ±5%. Any open or short circuit means damage.

Q5: Is the 1/2-20 UNF thread compatible with metric holes?
No, 1/2-20 UNF is an imperial thread. Do not force it into metric M10 or M12 holes. Use a thread adapter if needed.

Summary for Buyers

The Bently Nevada 9200-06-02-05-00 two-wire velocity transducer delivers accurate casing vibration data. Its 20 mV/mm/s sensitivity and 10 Hz low frequency suit higher speed machinery above 600 cpm. The side mount connector and 1/2-20 UNF stud enable installation in tight spaces. Order this new original unit for reliable condition monitoring on your critical assets.
