330500 Velomitor Piezo-velocity Sensor
Datasheet
Bently Nevada Machinery Condition Monitoring
Description
Bently Nevada Velomitor Piezo-velocity Sensors are designed
to measure absolute (relative to free space) bearing housing,
casing, or structural vibration. The 330500 is a specialized
piezoelectric accelerometer that incorporates embedded
integrated electronics in a solid-state design.
Because the 330500 incorporates solid-state electronics and
has no moving parts, it does not suffer from mechanical
degradation and wear, and can be mounted vertically,
horizontally, or at any other angle of orientation
Measuring Housings for Transducer
Placement
If you are measuring a machine housing to determine where
to place transducers, consider the types of measurements
you want to obtain. Most common machine malfunctions
like imbalance or misalignment originate at the rotor and
cause a change—usually an increase—in rotor vibration.

If you integrate the 330500 Velomitor output to
measure displacement, electrical noise from
interference and the transducer circuit can be
amplified. The noise can degrade performance of
330500 transducers and produce inaccurate
displacement data.
To obtain high quality data, place the transducer in a
location where it can best detect machine vibration through
the bearing housing or machine casing. Choose a location,
grounding, and shielding that maximizes amplitude and
frequency response and lessens data that doesn’t represent
actual machine vibration.
Bently Nevada provides engineering services to determine the
optimum location to install transducers. For assistance, visit
