Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 177230-00-01-05 Seismic Transmitter is a high-precision vibration and seismic monitoring device designed to detect ground movement, structural vibrations, and machine instability. This transmitter integrates an advanced seismic sensor with an intelligent signal processing unit, enabling accurate real-time monitoring in critical industrial environments.
Engineered for durability and reliability, the 177230-00-01-05 is built to withstand harsh operating conditions, including extreme temperatures, heavy vibrations, and corrosive environments. The transmitter is widely used in industries such as oil and gas, power generation, and heavy machinery, where precise vibration monitoring is essential for safety and operational efficiency.
By converting seismic activity into a standardized output signal (4-20mA), the transmitter ensures easy integration with industrial control systems and condition monitoring platforms. This helps facilities proactively detect anomalies, prevent equipment failures, and enhance overall system reliability.
