Introduction The Model 653A Series Industrial 4-20mA Sensors combine the capabilities of a piezoelectric vibration sensor and a 4-20mA vibration transmitter. The sensor outputs a 4-20mA signal that is proportional to the overall displacement of the machinery. Ideal for monitoring the vibration of process equipment such as low rotation speed fans, motors and pumps, the output of the sensor is used for process control or predictive maintenance.
The resistor in a loop will generate a DC voltage that is proportional to current by: V = IR If R = 250 ohms and I = 6mA, then V = 1.5 Vdc Note: Resistor value must be less than: (Vsupply – 12) x 50. For integral cable sensors: RED wire is positive, BLUE wire is negative.
Installation When choosing a mounting method, consider closely the advantages and disadvantages of each technique. Typical mounting types are stud, direct adhesive, adhesive mounting base and magnetic mounting base. Since the frequency response is limited to 300 Hz on the 653A, any of the four methods can be used without seriously affecting the data values.
Standard Stud Mount Procedure This mounting technique requires smooth, flat contact surfaces for proper operation and is recommended for permanent and/or secure installations. Stud mounting is also recommended when testing at high frequencies. Note: DO NOT attempt mounting on curved, rough or uneven sufaces, as the potential for misalignmen and limited contact surface may significantly reduce the senor’s upeer operating frequnecy range.
Adhesive Stud Mount Procedure Adhesive mounting is often used for temporary installation or when the machine surface cannot be adequately prepared for stud mounting. Adhesives like hot glue or wax work well for temporary mounts; two-part epoxies and quick –bonding gels provide a more permanent mount. Note: Adhesively mounted sensors often exhibit a reduction in high-frequency range.
Magnetic Mount Procedure Magnetic mounting provides a convenient means for making portable measurements and is commonly used for machinery monitoring and other portable or tending applications. Note: The correct magnet choice and an adequately prepared mounting surface is critical for obtaining reliable measurements, especially at high frequencies.
Warning 2 – ESD sensitivity This equipment is designed with user safety in mind; however, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired if the equipment is used in a manner not specified by PCB Piezotronics. Caution 1 – ESD sensitivity Cables can kill your equipment.
