Overview
The Bently Nevada 990 Vibration Transmitter (Part Number 990-05-50-01-CN) interfaces directly with centrifugal compressors, small motors, pumps, and fans. By converting proximity probe signals into a 4–20 mA output proportional to peak-to-peak vibration amplitude, it ensures smooth integration with machinery protection systems. Furthermore, the device simplifies vibration monitoring for OEMs requiring robust, fault-tolerant solutions.
Key Features
- Integrated Proximitor Sensor: This feature eliminates the need for external units, which simplifies installation and reduces wiring complexity.
- Diagnostic Outputs: In addition to standard signals, the module provides dynamic vibration and gap voltage outputs via “PROX OUT” and “COM” terminals.
- Adjustable Potentiometers: Zero and span adjustments allow precise tuning, improving measurement accuracy.
- Test Input Pin: You can verify the loop signal quickly using a function generator.
- Not OK/Signal Defeat Circuit: It actively prevents false alarms caused by faulty probes or loose connections.
- Flexible Mounting: You can mount the transmitter either on DIN rails or via bulkhead screws, depending on your setup.
