Vibro-Meter CA201 144-201-000-222 Piezoelectric Accelerometer

Product Description

The 144-201-000-222 is the CA201 shear-mode piezoelectric accelerometer from Vibro-Meter (Meggitt), designed for continuous machinery vibration monitoring. It outputs high-quality vibration signals to vibration monitoring racks, used for bearing vibration measurement on turbines, compressors and rotating equipment. It features internal case isolation, low noise and stable sensitivity for long-term online condition monitoring.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between CA201 144-201-000-222 and other CA201 codes?
A: The suffix code defines cable length, connector type and explosion-proof version; 222 is standard non-ex version with fixed cable.

Q: Can it work with Bently Nevada 3500 monitor?
A: Yes, it can be matched with 3500 vibration modules as a general IEPE accelerometer, but it is originally designed for Vibro-Meter racks.

Q: Does it need separate power supply?
A: It is IEPE type, powered by constant current excitation from the vibration monitor card.
