Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What type of signal does the 330500-03-05 output?
A1: It outputs a voltage proportional to vibration velocity (100 mV/in/s).
Q2: Is it suitable for use in hazardous environments?
A2: Yes, it meets ATEX, IECEx, CSA, and DNV certifications.
Q3: Can it be mounted in any orientation?
A3: Yes, vertical, horizontal, or any angled orientation is acceptable.
Q4: What is the sensor’s noise floor?
A4: 0.004 mm/s (160 µin/s) RMS over 4.5 Hz to 5 kHz.
Q5: What cable length can be used without signal degradation?
A5: Up to 305 meters (1,000 feet) using Bently Nevada cable P/N 02173006.
Q6: What is the shock survivability rating?
