VSP01A is an ATEX-certified piezoelectric acceleration sensor for hazardous areas. It provides a -50…50 g vibration range and 2…10000 Hz frequency range. The sensor uses IEPE communication through intrinsically safe supply equipment. Its stainless-steel housing supports harsh industrial environments. The design is suitable for connection to external VSExxx diagnostic electronics.
VSP01A is designed for hazardous-area vibration monitoring. Its ATEX and IECEx certifications support use in specified explosive atmospheres. The sensor uses intrinsically safe supply isolators. A single measurement axis provides focused vibration measurement. This makes it suitable for critical rotating equipment in hazardous locations.
The sensor measures vibration from -50 to +50 g. Its frequency range extends from 2 to 10000 Hz. Sensitivity is 100 mV/g with 0.1 mg noise density. The piezoelectric principle provides dynamic vibration measurement. IEPE communication connects the sensor to external diagnostic equipment.
VSP01A uses a stainless-steel housing. IP68 protection supports harsh environmental conditions. The sensor can operate between -55 and +90 °C. It withstands 5000 g shock. M8 × 1.25 mounting provides secure machine installation.
