Bently Nevada 190501-10-00-02 Velomitor CT Velocity Sensor

Bently Nevada 190501-10-00-02 Velomitor CT Velocity Transducer

Product Introduction

The Bently Nevada 190501-10-00-02 provides accurate velocity measurements for industrial machinery. You can use this sensor on turbines, compressors, and pumps. It features a stud mount with an M6x1 to 3/8-24 adapter. Additionally, the device carries CSA and ATEX approvals for explosive environments. Its internal electronics isolate from the case to avoid ground loops.

Key Technical Specifications

Sensitivity stands at 3.94 mV/mm/s (100 mV/in/s) with a ±5% tolerance.
The frequency response spans from 3.0 Hz to 900 Hz at ±1.0 dB.
Moreover, the unit handles 1.5 Hz to 1.0 kHz at ±3.0 dB.
Output bias voltage measures 10.1 Vdc ± 1.0 Vdc on Pin A relative to Pin B.
Dynamic output impedance stays below 400 Ω typically.
Broadband noise reaches only 0.229 mm/s pk.

For amplitude linearity, the Bently Nevada 190501 achieves ±2% up to 63.5 mm/s pk.
Its mounted resonant frequency is 9 kHz minimum when stud mounted.
Base strain sensitivity equals 0.43 mm/s/μstrain.
You can extend cable length up to 305 meters using part number 02173006 without signal loss.

Environmental and Mechanical Limits

Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.
Storage temperature goes from -40°C to +100°C.
Shock tolerance reaches 5000 g pk maximum.
Humidity limit allows 100% condensing but non-submerged conditions.
Magnetic field susceptibility stays below 0.0068 mm/s/gauss at 50 gauss, 50-60Hz.

Weight is under 297 grams (10.5 oz).
Mounting surface diameter measures 33 mm (1.3 in).
Total height equals 82 mm (3.2 in).
Case material uses 316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
Connector type is a 2-pin 316L stainless steel MIL-C-5015 mounted on top.

Installation and Mounting Guidelines

Mounting torque requires 4.5 N-m ± 0.6 N-m (40 in–lbf ± 5 in–lbf).
The device works in any orientation without performance loss.
Polarity definition: Pin A goes positive with respect to Pin B when velocity moves from base to top.
Mounting hardware option includes a plate stud M6x1 to M6x1 with a 3/8-24 adapter.
Therefore, installation is straightforward on most machinery casings.

For hazardous locations, the Bently Nevada 190501-10-00-02 with agency approval option 02 meets:

• Ex ia IIC T4 for Class I, Div 1, Groups A, B, C, D

• Class II, Group E, F and G, plus Class III

• AEx ia IIC T4 for same divisions

• Also Ex nL IIC T4 for Class I, Division 2
  Install per drawing 167536. Temperature range T4 from -40°C to +100°C.

Why Choose This Velocity Transducer?

First, this sensor delivers reliable data for predictive maintenance.
Second, its stainless steel construction resists harsh chemicals and moisture.
Third, the isolated grounding prevents electrical noise interference.
Furthermore, the wide frequency response captures both low and high-speed events.
Finally, global approvals allow installation in almost any industrial region.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can I use the Bently Nevada 190501-10-00-02 in a wet environment?
Yes. It tolerates 100% condensing humidity as long as you do not submerge it. The 316L stainless steel case resists rust.

2. What happens if I exceed the 305-meter cable length?
Signal degradation may occur beyond 305 meters. Therefore, always use the recommended cable (part number 02173006) to maintain accuracy.

3. Does the sensor require an external power supply?
No. The Bently Nevada 190501 generates its own signal from vibration. However, you must read the output bias voltage correctly on Pin A relative to Pin B.

4. How do I verify the transducer orientation during installation?
You can mount it at any angle. For correct polarity, remember Pin A goes positive when velocity moves from the base toward the top of the unit.

5. Is this model compatible with all Bently Nevada monitoring systems?
Yes. It works with most Bently Nevada racks and monitors that accept 100 mV/in/s velocity inputs. Always check your system’s input specifications first.
