Bently Nevada 190501-10-00-00 Low-frequency velocity (Velomitor CT) transducer 100% New

FAQ

What is the purpose of the 190501-10-00-00 transducer?
It is a low-frequency velocity transducer (Velomitor CT) intended for measuring casing vibration in cooling towers and air-cooled fan systems, particularly where slow shaft speeds or low vibration levels are expected.

What makes the “10” suffix variant different from base models?
The “10” in the model suffix typically identifies a specific configuration—such as mounting options or internal tuning—within the series of Velomitor CT models.

What is the operational temperature range?
The transducer can reliably operate between –40 °C and +100 °C, making it suitable for outdoor fan and ambient conditions.

What is the size and weight of this transducer?
Its diameter is around 33 mm (1.30 in), and it weighs approximately 0.11 kg.

Does it support very low frequencies?
Yes — the Velomitor CT line is designed for low-frequency response, down to about 0.1 Hz, so it can capture slow vibration components.

What kind of output does this provide?
It provides a velocity output (voltage) suited to vibration monitoring instrumentation; it is not a current loop device.

How is it mounted and connected?
It uses a MIL-C-5015 connector interface. Some variants include a mounting stud; others are flange or bare sensor types depending on the suffix choice.

Is it suitable for high-speed machinery?
While primarily intended for lower speed and low-frequency applications (such as cooling tower fans), it can handle higher frequencies up to ~10 kHz, so it may be used in broader vibration monitoring applications, provided the vibration levels remain within its range.
