FM-LPS-420 Series Velocity Transducer

Loop Power, Velocity 4-20 mA Output Vibration Sensor, Top Connector

The FM-LPS-420 Transducers are basically Internally amplified Acclerometers i.e. two wire loop powered 4-20mA Transducers. 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 current signal. These accelerometers output a low voltage (mV) which is proportional to the overall vibration of the equipment or machinery they are monitoring. This is converted to a proportional output current, with the range of 4-20 mA (4 mA normally representing the sensor's zero-level output, and 20 mA representing the sensor's full-scale output). Only two wires are required to send the current signal and also supply power to the sensor. A loop supply voltage is used to power a remote sensor. The remote sensor regulates the loop current such that the loop current represents the value of the parameter being measured by the sensor. A series used by the process monitor/ controller to record or distribute the parameter being measured.

Advantages
Very wide frequency Wide Amplitude Range Broad Temperature Range Velocity or Displacement output available Rugged, Industrial Design No need of signal conditioner as it gives 4-20mA directly to hook up PLC/DCS.

Power input Bandpass filter

: 20-32 VDC : The vibration sensor contains a band-pass filter, consisting of a low-pass and a high-pass. The cutoff frequencies are specified at time of order. : Full scale output of 4-20 mA : Filters the signal, and normalizes the output to the specified full scale output. Performs a true RMS conversion and transmits this data in a 4-20 mA format. (If RMS is chosen) : 18-30 VDC : See data sheet : -40 C to +85 C
