The RV (Raw Vibration) Option
Sensors ordered with the RV prefix including the optional raw vibration output feature.
These sensors are easily distinguished due to the small connector located on the side of
the unit. This connector is not present on the standard unit.
A special cable can be used to connect to the sensor’s 4 pin connector and a standard
BNC connector on your data collector. To collect data, treat the sensor like a standard
ICP
®
or IEPE 100 mV/g accelerometer. Your data collector should provide 18-30VDC
2-20mA constant current excitation power. The output will be a 5 VAC dynamic signal
from -50 to +50 g.
Ensure the shorting cap is replaced after raw vibration data is collected.
The transmitter will not be able to collect data without it!
