Overview
The Bently Nevada 330500-01-00 Velomitor is a rugged, 2-pin piezoelectric velocity sensor engineered for absolute vibration measurement on bearing housings, casings, and structural components. This sensor incorporates integrated solid-state electronics in a compact design, delivering reliable performance across industrial asset condition monitoring applications without moving parts or mechanical degradation.
Key Features
- Solid-state piezoelectric design with integrated electronics
- No moving parts—eliminates mechanical wear and degradation
- Orientation-independent mounting (vertical, horizontal, or any angle)
- Rugged 2-pin connector configuration
- Extended cable reach capability (up to 305 m / 1,000 ft maximum)
- Available with multiple agency approvals for hazardous area use
