Introduction

4-20 mA Vibration Monitoring Process Overview
4-20 mA technology can be used to measure temperature, pressure, flow and speed, as well as the overall vibration of rotating machines . Adding a vibration sensor/transmitter to the machine provides a critical measure of the machine’s health . It can be used to  dentify changes in balance, alignment, gears, bearings, and many other potential faults . The purpose of the 4-20 mA analog current loop is to transmit the signal from an analog vibration sensor over a distance in the form of a 4-20 mA current signal . The current signal generated is proportional to the overall vibration of the equipment or machinery that is being monitored . This output current has a range of 4-20 mA, with 4 representing the minimum and 20 representing maximum amplitudes (within the range of 4-20 mA) . The 4-20 mA signal output is proportional to the overall amplitude generated within a defined frequency band . Therefore, the signal does not include data from frequencies outside the frequency band but includes all vibration (critical and non-critical faults) within that band .

LP802 Series Overview
Each LP802 sensor that is approved for Intrinsic Safety must meet or exceed the requirements for standards recognized by the countries that would use the sensors .

Wiring

The Intrinsic Safety Control Drawing INS10012 below shows the installation requirements for CTC IS Sensors . As shown, properly installed barriers are required to limit the energy the sensor can receive . Cabling brings the signal from the sensor to the Zener diode barrier or galvanic isolator, which is the energy-limiting interface . The signal is transferred through the barrier (which can be located in a Class I Div 2 or non-hazardous area) to measurement equipment, such as a data collector or junction box, for further processing .

NOTES:

  • Unspecified barrier strip shown
  • See safety barrier manufacturer installation manual for information on proper wiring of sensor cables to the terminal blocks of the safety barrier

Installation

Tighten the sensor to the mounting disk using 2 to 5 ft-lbs of mounting force.

CTC LP802 Intrinsic Safety Loop Power Sensors - fig3

– The mounting torque is important to the frequency response of the sensor for the following reasons:

  •  If the sensor is not tight enough, proper coupling between the base of the sensor and the mounting disk will not be achieved .
  • If the sensor is over tightened, stud failure may occur .

– A coupling agent (such as MH109-3D epoxy) will maximize the high frequency response of your hardware, but is not required .

Permanent/Stud Mounting Surface Preparation

  1.  Prepare flat surface using a spot face tool and pilot drill hole using a CTC spot face installation tool .
  2.  The mounting surface should be clean and free from any residue or paint .
  3. Tap for required thread ( ¼-28 or M6x1) .
  4.  Install sensor .
    – Suggested Installation Tool Kit: MH117-1B
