200350-01-00-00 Bently Nevada 10kHz High Frequency Sensor

Product Overview

The 200350-01-00-00 is a high-performance industrial accelerometer designed by Bently Nevada for continuous asset health monitoring. Optimized for high-speed rotating machinery, this sensor translates mechanical vibration into a precise 100 mV/g electrical signal, allowing maintenance teams to identify early-stage mechanical faults. With a broad frequency response reaching up to 10,000 Hz, it is particularly effective at detecting bearing degradation and gear mesh issues, ensuring that critical infrastructure remains operational and efficient.

Technical Configuration

The 200350-01-00-00 is configured for seamless integration into metric-based mechanical systems. The "01" mounting suffix specifies a 1/4-28 to M6 x 1.00 stainless steel adapter stud, providing high-stiffness coupling for accurate signal transmission. The "00" tolerance option provides the standard ±20% sensitivity calibration, while the final "00" denotes a standard version without specific hazardous area agency approvals. Housed in welded stainless steel, the unit achieves an IP68 rating, making it completely impervious to dust and moisture in heavy industrial settings.

Technical Specifications

Installation & Maintenance Guide

To ensure the 200350-01-00-00 captures high-frequency data accurately, it must be mounted on a flat, clean, and machined surface. Use the provided M6 x 1.00 stainless steel adapter to secure the sensor base to the machine casing, ensuring proper mechanical coupling to prevent signal resonance. While the IP68 rating allows for operation in 100% relative humidity and condensing environments, it is recommended to use high-quality twisted-pair cabling (up to 30m) to minimize noise. A 12-month calibration interval is recommended to maintain optimal measurement accuracy.

Engineering Advantages

The 200350-01-00-00 offers exceptional performance stability with a temperature coefficient of less than 0.02 %/°C and a linearity of ±1% up to 75g. Its rugged design has been tested through thermal shock cycles and high-impact scenarios (5,000g shock limit), making it one of the most durable accelerometers in its class. With low broadband noise (350 μg) and an output impedance of less than 150 Ω, this sensor delivers clean, interference-free vibration data even when located far from the monitoring system.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What is the benefit of the M6 x 1.00 adapter?
A1: This adapter allows the sensor to be directly installed on machinery with metric mounting threads without the need for custom fabrication, ensuring a rigid and standard connection.

Q2: Can this sensor handle high humidity?
A2: Yes, the 200350-01-00-00 is IP68 rated and specifically designed to resist a 100% relative humidity environment with negligible sensitivity shift (≤ 0.5%).

Q3: What monitoring systems are compatible with this accelerometer?
A3: It is fully compatible with Bently Nevada 3500 series racks and other standard vibration monitors that provide 18–28 VDC excitation and support 100 mV/g constant current sensors.
