Quick Detail

Description

The 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter is a high-performance, loop-powered vibration monitoring device engineered by Bently Nevada, a global leader in asset condition monitoring solutions with origin in the USA. As a reliable core component for industrial machinery health management, this seismic transmitter is designed to deliver real-time, precise seismic and vibration data, serving as an indispensable tool for predictive maintenance and enhancing critical asset reliability across diverse industrial sectors.

Boasting a compact structure (6.8x2.8x2.8cm) and lightweight design (0.12kg), the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter enables seamless installation in tight spaces and easy integration into existing plant control systems, including programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and distributed control systems (DCS), via its standard 4-20 mA output signal. This plug-and-play compatibility significantly reduces installation complexity and operational costs, making the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter a preferred choice for both new projects and retrofitting applications.

Built with a rugged 316L stainless steel case, the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter excels in harsh industrial environments, withstanding extreme temperatures, high vibrations, and corrosive conditions commonly found in refineries, chemical plants, and offshore facilities. It features a measurement range of 0–25.4 mm/s (0–1.0 in/s) and a frequency response of 3 Hz to 1 kHz (180 to 60 kcps) peak, ensuring accurate capture of vibration signatures for both low-speed and high-speed machinery. With a settling time of less than 13 seconds within 2% of the final value, the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter provides rapid, stable readings for real-time monitoring, enabling operators to detect early signs of equipment faults such as bearing wear, rotor imbalance, or structural resonance.

Applications

1. Rotating & Reciprocating Machinery Vibration Monitoring

The 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter is specifically engineered for monitoring vibration levels in rotating and reciprocating equipment, including motors, centrifugal pumps, compressors, gas turbines, and reciprocating engines. Its measurement range of 0–25.4 mm/s and frequency response of 3 Hz–1 kHz allows it to capture comprehensive vibration signatures associated with common mechanical faults, such as gear tooth wear, shaft misalignment, impeller damage, and bearing degradation. By detecting these anomalies at an early stage, the transmitter helps prevent catastrophic equipment failures, reduces maintenance costs, and extends the operational lifespan of high-value industrial assets.

2. Hazardous Area Industrial Operations

Equipped with CSA/NRTL/C, ATEX, and IECEx certifications, the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter is fully compliant for deployment in explosive and flammable environments, including refineries, chemical processing plants, offshore oil & gas platforms, and mining operations. Its 316L stainless steel housing offers superior corrosion resistance, enabling stable performance in high-humidity, high-temperature, and corrosive atmospheres. This eliminates the need for additional protective enclosures, simplifying installation and ensuring adherence to global safety standards in hazardous work zones.

3. Power Generation Asset Surveillance

In thermal, hydro, and wind power plants, the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter plays a crucial role in monitoring the vibration of key assets such as generators, boilers, turbines, and auxiliary equipment. Its fast settling time (less than 13 seconds) enables real-time data transmission to plant control systems, allowing operators to receive immediate feedback on machinery condition and adjust operational parameters promptly. This proactive monitoring helps avoid unplanned outages that impact power supply reliability, ensuring stable and efficient power generation.

Specifications

Competitive Advantage

1.Superior Measurement Range & Data Accuracy

The 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter stands out with a wider measurement range of 0–25.4 mm/s (0–1.0 in/s) and a frequency response of 3 Hz to 1 kHz, covering more vibration scenarios compared to similar products with narrower ranges. It features high sensitivity of 100 mV/g ± 2% and transverse sensitivity of ≤ 5%, enabling detection of micro-vibration anomalies that conventional transmitters miss while minimizing cross-axis interference. With linearity of ≤ 1% F.S., it ensures precise, reliable data for early fault diagnosis, reducing false alarms and unnecessary maintenance interventions.

2.Rugged 316L Stainless Steel Design for Harsh Environments

Constructed with 316L stainless steel housing, the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter delivers exceptional durability and corrosion resistance, outperforming plastic-cased alternatives. It operates reliably in an extreme temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, withstanding high humidity, corrosive gases, and intense vibrations in harsh industrial settings. Its compact dimensions (6.8x2.8x2.8cm) and lightweight (0.12kg) allow flexible installation in tight spaces such as machinery cabinets and equipment skids, extending its applicability across diverse scenarios.

3. Fast Settling Time for Real-Time Monitoring

With a settling time of less than 13 seconds within 2% of the final value, the 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter provides rapid, stable data output, making it ideal for real-time monitoring applications. This fast response time ensures operators receive immediate feedback on machinery condition, enabling timely interventions to prevent equipment downtime. Compared to competitors with settling times of 20+ seconds, this feature delivers a significant advantage in dynamic industrial environments where quick decision-making is critical.

4. Global Safety Certifications & Cost-Effective Deployment

The 177230-01-02-05 Seismic Transmitter holds multiple global safety certifications (CSA/NRTL/C, ATEX, IECEx), ensuring compliance with regional safety standards for hazardous area operations. This eliminates the need for custom certification for different markets, reducing time-to-market and simplifying global procurement for multinational enterprises. As a loop-powered device operating on 8–30 V DC excitation voltage, it reduces wiring complexity and operational costs, while its original factory-sealed design guarantees long-term reliability and minimizes replacement expenses.
