Main Parameters
Core Features & Advantages
-
Simple 4-20 mA Integration: The module's standout feature is its standard 4-20 mA loop-powered output, which allows for direct, simple integration with PLCs, DCS, and SCADA systems without the need for specialized vibration analyzers . This makes it ideal for non-critical machine protection and condition monitoring where a straightforward vibration reading is required.
-
High-Fidelity Dynamic Signal Output: In addition to the 4-20 mA signal, the transmitter provides an unbuffered dynamic acceleration signal (from Pin C). This raw signal enables advanced diagnostics and analysis, allowing users to view the actual vibration waveform for detailed troubleshooting .
-
Robust and Reliable Design: Housed in a 316L stainless steel case, the transmitter is designed for reliability in demanding industrial environments . It features a wide operating temperature range and is suitable for use in hazardous areas with certifications like ATEX/IECEx .
-
Configuration Options for Versatility: The 177230 series offers different measurement ranges and frequency responses. The "-02" in the model number indicates a range of 0 to 50.8 mm/s (0 to 2.0 in/s), making it suitable for high-vibration environments . The "-CN" variant is certified for use in multiple regions including China (NEPSI) and hazardous areas .
Typical Applications
The 177230-02-01-CN is widely used for vibration monitoring in various industrial settings :
-
General Machinery Monitoring: Pumps, motors, fans, gearboxes, and compressors .
-
Crushers and Heavy Equipment: Used to protect expensive equipment like cone crushers in mining applications by detecting bearing wear through vibration trends .
-
Power Generation: Monitoring auxiliary equipment in power plants.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the primary function of the 177230-02-01-CN?
A: It is a vibration transmitter that provides a 4-20 mA output signal proportional to the velocity (0-2.0 in/s) of a machine's housing, enabling easy integration with PLC and DCS systems for continuous monitoring .
Q2: Does this transmitter provide a dynamic vibration signal?
A: Yes, it provides an unbuffered dynamic acceleration signal from Pin C. This signal can be used with analyzers for advanced diagnostics and troubleshooting .
Q3: What does the "-02" option signify in the model number?
A: The "-02" indicates the measurement range of 0 to 50.8 mm/s (0 to 2.0 in/s), which is suited for machines operating at higher vibration levels .
Q4: What is the significance of the "-CN" certification?
A: The "-CN" denotes a "Country Specific" approval, indicating this model is compliant with standards like CSA/NRTL/C and has certifications such as ATEX/IECEx for hazardous area installation .
Q5: What are the pin assignments for the 3-pin connector?
A: The pin connections are: Pin A: 4-20 mA Positive Loop; Pin B: 4-20 mA Loop Return and common for dynamic signal; Pin C: Dynamic Signal (unbuffered, referenced to Pin B) .
Q6: What is the recommended mounting method and torque?
A: The transmitter is designed for stud mounting. The recommended mounting torque is 4 to 7 N-m (35.4 to 62.0 in-lbf) .
Q7: What is the expected settling time after power-up?
A: The output settles to within 2% of its final value in under 15 seconds .
