Product Introduction
The Bently Nevada 74712-03-10-02-00 Seismoprobe Velocity Transducer is a precision instrument designed for monitoring vibration in rotating and stationary industrial machinery. Part of Bently Nevada’s Seismoprobe series, this velocity transducer converts mechanical vibration into a proportional electrical signal, allowing accurate measurement of machinery movement and dynamic behavior.
With a diameter of 41 mm and weighing 0.48 kg, this transducer is compact and lightweight, suitable for installation in confined spaces without sacrificing performance. Its rugged construction ensures reliable operation in industrial environments where oil, dust, and temperature variations are present. The device provides high-fidelity velocity measurements that are crucial for condition monitoring, vibration analysis, and machinery protection.
The Seismoprobe operates on a velocity-sensing principle, delivering a linear output across a broad frequency range. This allows plant operators to detect early signs of imbalance, misalignment, bearing wear, or structural resonance, supporting predictive maintenance programs and reducing the risk of unplanned downtime.
