DESCRIPTION
The 4-137 is a seismic mass type velocity transducer designed for measuring radial vibrations at high temps up to +700°F
(+371°C). A seismic mass magnet moves on special ceramic bearings. A coil is attached to the case, and movement
between the magnet and coil produce the output signal when the case vibrates. This air damped system operates above
its natural frequency. The voltage output is proportional to velocity.

INSTALLATION
Mounting
Rigidly attach the transducer to a clean machined flat surface of the equipment under test using the
appropriate size screws and lock washers. Be sure to tighten the screws securely (20 – 25 in/lb).
Wiring
For non-hazardous locations the transducer should be wired according to figure 1 (page 2).
For hazardous locations, the wiring method is dependant on the area classification.
Class 1, Division 2, Groups ABCD T6-T1
EEx nA II T6-T1 X
Transducer may be installed without the use of a safety barrier. Wiring to the transducer must comply
with the safety requirements of the hazardous area in which it is mounted. Reference figure 1 (page
2) for wiring configuration.
Class 1, Division 1, Groups ABCD T6-T1
II 1 G EEx ia IIB or IIC T6-T1:
Transducer may be connected through a safety barrier to the safe area receiver in accordance with
figure 2 (page 3).
CAUTION:
Never apply in excess of 45VDC across the terminals.
