Installation and maintenance: BENTLY 330180-50-00

Installing and maintaining the BENTLY 330180-50-00 is designed to be straightforward, ensuring minimal disruption to operations:

Installation Steps:

Mounting: Screw the BENTLY 330180-50-00 into place using the M10 x 1.5 threaded housing, positioning it 1-2mm from the machine’s rotating component (e.g., motor shaft). Ensure the sensor is aligned perpendicular to the vibration source for accurate readings.
Wiring: Connect the M12 5-pin connector to the monitoring system or PLC using a shielded cable (e.g., ABB 330190-070-00-00). Connect power (18-30V DC) to the designated pins, following the wiring diagram in the user manual.
Calibration: The BENTLY 330180-50-00 comes pre-calibrated from the factory. For verification, use ABB’s 3301-CAL calibration tool to check output signals against known vibration and temperature levels.
Testing: Power on the system and monitor initial readings. A stable 4mA signal at rest confirms proper installation; adjust positioning if readings are erratic.

Maintenance Tips:

Semi-Annual Inspections: Check the M12 connector for corrosion or loose pins. Clean the sensor’s surface with a dry cloth to remove dust or oil buildup.
Calibration Checks: Verify calibration annually using BENTLY ’s calibration tools to ensure accuracy, especially in high-vibration environments.
Cable Integrity: Inspect cables for damage (cuts, abrasions) quarterly, as damaged insulation can affect signal quality.
Replacement Guidelines: Replace the BENTLY 330180-50-00 if readings become inconsistent or unresponsive, using only genuine ABB parts to maintain performance.
