Product Overview for the 200350-09-00-00 Accelerometer

The 200350-09-00-00 is a 100 mV/g accelerometer from Bently Nevada. Firstly, this device is manufactured in the U.S.A. to rigorous quality standards. Specifically, it uses a ceramic shear sensing element for accurate vibration measurement. In addition, the 200350-09-00-00 features stainless steel housing with welded hermetic sealing. Consequently, this accelerometer provides reliable performance in harsh industrial environments. Moreover, the IP68 enclosure rating ensures protection against dust and continuous immersion. Therefore, the 200350-09-00-00 is ideal for machinery condition monitoring applications.

Model Number Breakdown

The 200350-09-00-00 part number contains four distinct sections. Firstly, 200350 identifies the base model as a 200350 series accelerometer. Secondly, 09 specifies the mounting stud option, meaning no mounting stud is included. Thirdly, the first 00 indicates the tolerance option, which is 100 mV/g ±20%. Fourthly, the second 00 specifies the agency approvals option as no approvals. As a result, the 200350-09-00-00 is a basic configuration without mounting stud or agency certifications. Therefore, you will need to supply your own 1/4-28 mounting stud for installation.

Key Features and Benefits

Stainless Steel Hermetic Construction

The 200350-09-00-00 features stainless steel housing throughout. Firstly, the housing material provides excellent corrosion resistance. In addition, the welded hermetic sealing prevents moisture ingress completely. Consequently, this accelerometer survives in condensing humidity environments. Moreover, the sealing method ensures long-term reliability without seal degradation. Therefore, the 200350-09-00-00 is suitable for outdoor and washdown applications.

Wide Frequency Response Range

The 200350-09-00-00 offers a frequency range of 30 to 600,000 cpm. Specifically, this range spans from 0.5 to 10,000 Hz at ±3 dB. In addition, the mounted resonant frequency is 1,500 kcpm (25 kHz). Consequently, this accelerometer captures both low-frequency machine vibrations and high-frequency bearing signals. Therefore, the 200350-09-00-00 serves multiple monitoring applications from one sensor.

IP68 Environmental Protection

The 200350-09-00-00 carries an IP68 enclosure rating. Firstly, this rating means complete dust protection. In addition, it withstands continuous immersion under specified conditions. Specifically, the relative humidity rating is 100% condensing, non-submerged. Consequently, you can install this accelerometer in wet or dusty locations without concern. Therefore, the 200350-09-00-00 reduces the need for expensive protective enclosures.

High Shock Survivability

The 200350-09-00-00 withstands shock loads up to 5,000 g peak. Firstly, this high shock rating protects the sensor during machine start-up transients. In addition, it survives accidental impacts during maintenance activities. Consequently, the 200350-09-00-00 offers exceptional durability in demanding applications. Therefore, replacement frequency is significantly reduced compared to standard accelerometers.

Installation Guide for the 200350-09-00-00

Follow these steps for a proper installation of the 200350-09-00-00.

Step 1: Mounting Stud Selection

Firstly, obtain a suitable 1/4-28 mounting stud for the 200350-09-00-00. The 09 option means no stud is included with this configuration. Therefore, select a stud appropriate for your machine surface. Ensure the stud material matches stainless steel for corrosion compatibility.

Step 2: Surface Preparation

After that, clean the mounting surface thoroughly on your machine. Remove all dirt, grease, and old thread locker compounds. Then, apply a thin layer of coupling grease to the stud threads. Consequently, the 200350-09-00-00 will achieve proper acoustic coupling.
