Quick Detail

Description

The 177230-01-02-00 Seismic Transmitter is a robust, loop-powered device designed for seamless integration with industrial automation systems, including PLCs, DCS, and SCADA platforms. Its hermetically sealed ceramic shear sensing element provides precise vibration measurement within a 0–25.4 mm/s (0–1 in/s) range across 3 Hz to 1 kHz, ensuring reliable condition monitoring of machinery assets. Rated for operation between -40°C and +85°C and capable of 100% relative humidity exposure, it delivers consistent performance in harsh environments. The transmitter features electrical isolation >10⁸ ohms, isolation breakdown voltage of 600 Vrms, and transverse sensitivity below 5%, guaranteeing signal integrity. Easy to install with M6, M8, or ¼-28 UNF mounting options, the 177230 reduces maintenance costs, supports predictive maintenance strategies, and helps prevent catastrophic equipment failures while providing accurate, repeatable vibration data through an industry-standard 4–20 mA output.

Applications

Rotating Machinery Condition Monitoring
The 177230 transmitter is widely used in industrial turbines, pumps, and compressors. With measurement range up to 25.4 mm/s and frequency response from 3 Hz to 1 kHz, it enables predictive maintenance and early detection of imbalance or misalignment, reducing unscheduled downtime.

Industrial Asset Protection in Process Plants
Integrated into PLC or SCADA systems, the transmitter monitors vibration in pumps, fans, and motors. Its hermetically sealed sensor ensures accurate readings in high-humidity or corrosive environments, supporting compliance with EHS standards.

Automation of Predictive Maintenance Programs
By providing raw vibration signals compatible with analytics software, the 177230 allows automated monitoring, scheduling of preventive maintenance, and optimization of operational efficiency in manufacturing facilities.

Harsh Environment Machinery Monitoring
Rated for -40°C to +85°C and shock survivability of 1 g peak, this seismic transmitter reliably monitors outdoor or high-temperature industrial assets, including chemical plants and refineries, without signal degradation.

Integration with Control Systems
The transmitter’s loop-powered 4–20 mA output and protected interface enable straightforward connection to existing PLCs, DCS, or SCADA systems. Minimal field configuration reduces installation time and supports remote equipment diagnostics.
