1. Operating Information
1.1 Application
Velocity sensors measure machinery casing vibration on machines where the use
of eddy current proximity transducers is not practical. Typical applications include
pumps, electric motors, compressors, and fans.
This manual covers three Velomiters: 330500 Velomitor Sensor, 330525 Velomitor
XA Sensor, and 330530 Radiation Resistant Velomitor Sensor.
The 330525 Velomitor XA Sensor is designed for applications in which you do not
need or desire a transducer housing.
The 330530 Radiation-Resistant Velomitor Sensor is designed for applications
that require a resistance to the effects of gamma-radiation.
Application Advisory
Casing measurements may not be
appropriate for some machinery
protection applications.
If you measure the velocity of casing vibration to protect machinery, evaluate the
usefulness of the measurement for each application. Most common machine
malfunctions, such as unbalance or misalignment, occur on the rotor and
originate as an increase (or at least a change) in rotor vibration. In order for any
casing measurement alone to be effective for overall machine protection, the
machine must faithfully transmit a significant amount of rotor vibration to the
machine casing or mounting location of the sensor.
Exercise care when physical installing of the sensor on the bearing housing or
machine casing. Section 2 tells how to install the sensor.
Application Advisory
Improper installation may decrease the
velocity sensor's amplitude and
frequency response and/or generate
false signals that do not represent
actual vibration.

330500 Velomitor Sensor, 330525 Velomitor XA Sensor, 330530 Radiation Resistant Velomitor Sensor Operation Manual
Application Advisory
A sudden mechanical impulse may
cause the piezoelectric velocity sensor
to generate a low frequency signal that
does not represent actual machinery
vibration. This signal may change the
state of alarm and/or danger relays.
Table 1-1 summarizes the range of vibration frequencies that each Velomitor
sensor was designed to monitor.
Table 1-1: Velomitor Sensor Vibration Frequency Ranges
Velomitor Sensor
Frequency Range
330500
4.5 Hz to 5 kHz
330525
4.5 Hz to 2 kHz
330530
4.5 Hz to 5 kHz
Each sensor has a calibrated sensitivity of 4 mV/mm/s (100 mV/in/s) and some
sensors can measure velocities up to 1270 mm/s pk (50 in/sec pk) (refer to Section
5 for details). The stainless steel casing protects the Velomitor sensors in highly
corrosive environments and the operating temperature range is from 55 C to
121 C (67 F to 250 F).
Traditional velocity sensors consist of either a moving wire coil that surrounds a
fixed magnet or a fixed wire coil that surrounds a moving magnet. The Velomitor
sensor is more accurate than traditional velocity sensors. Because the Velomitor
sensor contains no moving parts, it is also more durable and less sensitive to
transverse motion than traditional seismic transducers. Its piezoelectric sensing
element and solid-state circuitry allow the Velomitor sensor to withstand years of
continuous use.

Figure 1-9: 330533 Cable for use with 330530 Velomitor Sensor
Application Advisory
The 330533 cable differs from most
Velomitor sensor cables in that the shield
and drain wires connect to the sensors
connector. The sensor connects to the
machine that should be correctly grounded,
so the sensor is the primary shield
grounding point. See the special installation
details in the Section 2.3.3.2.
12
Section 2 - Installation
2. Installation
2.1 Receiving Inspection
Inspect the components of the your order for inspecton damage as soon as you
receive them. Keep all shipping forms and invoices. If you discover any shipping
damage, file a claim with the carrier and submit a copy to Bently Nevada LLC.
Include all model numbers and serial numbers with the claim. We will either repair
or replace damaged parts according to the terms and conditions of the sale.
We ship the velocity sensor in a protective package and protect the connector
with a plastic cap. The Velomitor sensor is a sensitive instrument and these
precautions help to prevent damage during shipping.
Application Advisory
Leave the protective cap on the
connector until you make the final field
wiring connection. This will prevent
foreign debris from contaminating the
connector and possibly affecting
performance.
2.2.2 Mounting
Follow these steps to install the Velomitor Sensor.

sensor connector. The 106765-AXX cable assembly includes clamps and a quick
connect/disconnect connector to secure and seal the splash-resistant boot.
The cable assembly comes with the top clamp secured in position and the bottom
clamp looped around the boot. Follow the instructions below to install the cable
assembly on the transducer.
1. Pry the teeth of the clamps apart with a small screwdriver to open the
clamps.
2. Slide the boot back to reveal the connector. This will allow you to easily
install the cable assembly on the transducer.
3. Once the connector is engaged, slide the boot down over the
connector assembly and top of the transducer. The groove on the
inside bottom of the boot should fit neatly over the lip above the hex
flats.
4. The grooves on the outside of the boot at the top and bottom indicate
where to place the clamps. Secure the clamps with pliers.
General Considerations
Bently Nevada LLC supplies connecting cables with ring lugs or military-type
circular connectors. The cable connector must be compatible with the Velomitor
sensor connector.
Route the connecting cable away from the moving components of the machine
and avoid sharp corners during installation. To minimize noise, avoid routing
cables in the same cable tray with high voltage power lines. Tie the cable to a
stationary part of the machine to prevent it from whipping and prematurely
failing. Prevent the cable from bending sharply, twisting, kinking, knotting, or
straining. To prevent physical damage route the cable through conduit. Before
pulling cable through conduit, wrap the connector or terminals with tape or a
similar covering to protect them from damage. Ensure that the cable does not rub
against rough or sharp surfaces.
The radiation resistant cable 330533 is built from materials that are tolerant to
gamma-radiation, but you can extend the life of the cable if, during installation,
you route the cable to shield it or keep the maximum distant between the cable
and the radiation sources.
One possible installation scenario involves piping that contains fluid with
radioactive material. In this instance you should not strap the cable to the piping.
Instead, try to route the cable away from the radiation source as soon as the
cable leaves the sensors connection interface.

2.3.3.2
Section 2 - Installation
Special Installation Instruction for 330530 Cable (Part Number 330533) and
Installation in Nuclear Environments
This cable has the shield and drain wire that connect at the sensors connector.
You shoul correctly ground the sensor on the machine so that this becomes the
primary shield grounding point inside containment. Our best practice says that
you should use only 1 point to connect to the cables shield. To conform to this
practice, you must install an isolation capacitor as shown in Figure 2-1.

Application Alert
The installation requires the capacitor to prevent ground
loops. If the machine case to which the 330530 mounts is
not at the same voltage potential as the monitors
common, a current will flow through the shield of the
interconnect cable. This low level current could cause
false readings or trips. High current levels could destroy
the monitor if you do not use the capacitor.

Bently Nevada cable seals protect against splash and abrasion but do not
protect against immersion. Contact Bently Nevada LLC if your application
requires greater protection.

You can improve the accuracy of the system by

the frequency of calibration (100 Hz).
