Parameter Analysis

The ordering string of the 177230-02-01-05 encodes its physical and electrical configuration, so every digit should be checked against the machine drawing before substitution. The unit is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F). Compliance documentation covers multiple Approvals (CSA/NRTL/C.

Sensor output is specified together with the associated monitoring machinery, so consistent part numbers across the loop keep sensitivity and linearity within their documented limits.

Application Scenarios

This sensor monitors casing vibration or related machinery parameters on rotating equipment, providing the measurement signal that the monitoring system uses for alarm and trip decisions.

Installation Guide

Mount the sensor at the documented location on the machine casing, torque the stud to specification, and route the cable to the monitor with correct shielding. Confirm the measurement channel responds before returning the train to operation.

Compatibility

This component belongs to the Bently Nevada condition monitoring portfolio and is engineered to work with the associated probes, extension cables, Proximitors, and monitoring hardware of the same system. Bently Nevada components sharing the same part number are fully interchangeable, so a stocked spare can be fitted without re-engineering the measurement loop. TenBN can supply the complete chain under consistent part numbers.

Maintenance Advice

Check the sensor mounting, cable, and connector condition during outages, and verify the measurement channel still responds to a known input. Keep the unit within its -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F) operating envelope in service and storage.

Procurement Advice

Confirm the complete part number against your machine’s bill of materials before ordering, since each option digit changes the mechanical or electrical fit. TenBN stocks genuine Bently Nevada components and provides the official service documentation for this model. For inventory, pricing, and lead time on the 177230-02-01-05, contact [email protected].

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating temperature range?

The unit is rated from -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F), covering the temperature extremes typical of turbomachinery installations.

What approvals or certifications does it carry?

Compliance documentation covers multiple Approvals (CSA/NRTL/C. Confirm the approval suffix on your part number before ordering for hazardous-area use.

What connector or interface does it use?

It uses -pin MIL-C-5015, 316L stainless steel, matching the standard Bently Nevada measurement chain.

Can this spare be interchanged with existing components?

Bently Nevada components sharing the same part number are fully interchangeable, so this spare can replace an existing unit without recalibrating the loop when the complete part number matches.
