1. Product Overview and Core Functionality
The Bently Nevada 4200 is a loop-powered, two-wire vibration transmitter designed for continuous machinery health monitoring in industrial automation systems. This compact device converts raw vibration signals from accelerometers into a standardized 4-20 mA output, enabling seamless integration with control systems like PLCs, DCS, or SCADA. It measures overall vibration velocity (RMS) or acceleration to detect mechanical faults such as imbalance, misalignment, and bearing degradation in rotating equipment like pumps, motors, and fans. Built for harsh environments, the 4200 operates reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and features a rugged, IP67-rated stainless steel housing resistant to moisture, dust, and corrosive substances. Its loop-powered design minimizes wiring complexity, making it ideal for remote or hazardous locations in oil and gas, power generation, and chemical plants.
2. Technical Specifications and Compliance
The 4200 supports a frequency range of 10 Hz to 1 kHz with ±2% measurement accuracy, aligning with ISO 10816 vibration severity standards. It accepts input from industrial accelerometers (e.g., 100 mV/g sensitivity) and offers configurable alarm thresholds for early fault detection. Certified for hazardous areas (ATEX/IECEx), the transmitter ensures safe operation in explosive atmospheres. Its EMI-resistant circuitry and wide power supply range (12–30 VDC) enhance reliability in electrically noisy environments. The device includes self-diagnostic features to monitor sensor health and wiring integrity, reducing false alarms. DIN rail or direct mounting options simplify installation, while its low power consumption supports energy-efficient monitoring networks.
3. Applications and Operational Benefits
Deployed in industries prioritizing predictive maintenance, the 4200 reduces unplanned downtime by identifying mechanical issues in turbines, compressors, and gearboxes before failures occur. Its compatibility with legacy infrastructure and modern IoT platforms enables cost-effective upgrades to smart monitoring systems. The transmitter’s fail-safe alarms and real-time data logging improve response times, safeguarding critical assets in refineries, mining operations, and water treatment facilities. By minimizing maintenance costs and extending equipment lifespan, the 4200 exemplifies Bently Nevada’s commitment to delivering robust, scalable solutions that enhance operational safety, efficiency, and compliance with global industrial standards.
