1. Product Overview and Technical Specifications
The Bently Nevada F8627 is a rugged industrial accelerometer designed for continuous vibration monitoring in critical rotating machinery such as turbines, compressors, and pumps. It features a frequency response range of 10 Hz to 10 kHz, delivering precise measurement of acceleration (up to 50 g peak) and velocity (0-20 mm/s RMS). The sensor’s hermetically sealed stainless steel housing ensures IP67 protection against moisture, dust, and corrosive environments, with an operating temperature range of -50°C to +120°C. Its 4-20 mA output integrates seamlessly with Bently Nevada’s System 1® diagnostic software and third-party PLC/SCADA systems. Compliant with API 670 standards, the F8627 includes built-in EMI shielding and optional hazardous area certifications (ATEX/IECEx) for use in oil and gas, power generation, and chemical processing plants.
2. Application Benefits and Industry Use Cases
The F8627 excels in predictive maintenance programs, detecting early-stage faults like imbalance, misalignment, and bearing wear to prevent unplanned downtime. Its high sensitivity (100 mV/g) enables reliable monitoring of low-speed machinery, while rugged construction withstands shock (up to 100g) and vibration in harsh environments. In gas turbine applications, it pairs with Bently Nevada’s 3500 series monitors for real-time health assessment. The sensor’s modular design allows flexible mounting via threaded studs or magnetic bases, ideal for retrofitting legacy systems. Industries such as offshore drilling and pulp/paper production rely on its corrosion-resistant coatings and NACE MR-0175 compliance for longevity in saline or acidic atmospheres.
3. Compliance and Integration Capabilities
Certified to global standards (API 670, ISO 10816), the F8627 ensures compliance with machinery safety and performance regulations. Its integrated TEDS (Transducer Electronic Data Sheet) simplifies configuration by storing calibration data on-chip. The device supports dual-output configurations (acceleration + velocity) for multi-parameter analysis and integrates with wireless IoT platforms for remote monitoring. Bently Nevada’s global service network provides NIST-traceable calibration and lifecycle support, minimizing maintenance costs. Optional explosion-proof enclosures (Class I, Division 1) and SIL 2/3 certifications make it a versatile choice for safety-critical applications in alignment with Industry 4.0 smart maintenance strategies.
