Description

Designed to provide continuous machinery protection and condition monitoring for lower-criticality assets, the Bently Nevada 2300/20_KIT-001-00 integrates a dual-channel vibration monitor within a rugged field-deployable package. This complete assembly is engineered for localized asset protection, enabling direct interface with accelerometers to track dynamic casing vibration, velocity, or displacement. The inclusion of a windowed fiberglass housing ensures environmental protection in demanding field installations, while native Ethernet connectivity facilitates seamless integration into plant-wide control networks and supervisory systems.

Features

  • Complete Monitoring Package: Bundles the 2300/20 monitor with dynamic sensors, cabling, and a protective enclosure for rapid field installation.
  • Dual-Channel Dynamic Input: Supports simultaneous monitoring of two acceleration or velocity channels for comprehensive asset diagnostic coverage.
  • Rugged Environmental Enclosure: Housed in a NEMA-rated 14x12x8 inch fiberglass enclosure featuring an integrated viewing window for direct status assessment.
  • Industrial Ethernet Communication: High-reliability shielded 6-foot Ethernet cable included for fast connection to PLCs, DCS, or System 1 software.
  • High-Accuracy Acceleration Transducers: Outfitted with two Commtest accelerometers and matching 4.8m cables for precise signal transmission.

Applications

  • Pumps and Fans: Localized vibration monitoring on critical balance-of-plant cooling pumps, exhaust fans, and blowers.
  • Electric Motors: Real-time bearing housing health analysis and structural vibration tracking.
  • Small Compressors: Protection and diagnosis of reciprocating and screw-type air compressors.
  • Cooling Towers: Remote monitoring of fan gearboxes and drive shafts located in high-moisture environments.

Empirical Engineering Insights

Alternative Models & Compatibility

The 2300/20 monitor serves as an ideal, self-contained alternative to rack-mounted 3500 series machinery protection systems for isolated or standalone assets. This module requires System 1 Evo software platform integration to enable advanced diagnostic capabilities, though localized alarm relays function completely independently of software status.

Application Pitfalls & Engineering Notes

When deploying inside the fiberglass enclosure, verify that ambient plant temperatures do not exceed the monitor's rated operating threshold of 65 degC. Ensure that the 24 VDC external power supply has a minimum output capability of 1.5 Amps to comfortably handle transient startup currents of the monitor and the dual accelerometers combined.

Commissioning & Wiring Tips

To avoid signal degradation and noise pickup from adjacent variable frequency drives (VFDs), the accelerometer cables must be routed through dedicated, grounded conduit. Sensor shielding must be terminated cleanly at the monitor terminal block end only; do not ground the shield at the sensor housing, as this will introduce localized ground loop currents that corrupt the dynamic vibration readings.

Installation Guidelines

CRITICAL SAFETY WARNING

Isolate and lock out all machinery and power distribution circuits before initiating mechanical mounting or terminal block wiring. Failure to de-energize the 24 VDC input supply prior to connection can damage internal solid-state components and void the manufacturer's warranty.

1

Securely mount the fiberglass enclosure to a flat, vibration-free structure adjacent to the monitored machine using external mounting brackets.

2

Install the Commtest accelerometers directly on the machine's bearing housings using standard threaded studs, ensuring flat and clean mounting surfaces.

3

Route the 4.8m sensor cables into the enclosure using liquid-tight cable glands, and terminate the leads to the terminal block as per the wiring diagram.

4

Connect a regulated, clean 24 VDC power supply to the designated power terminals on the 2300/20 monitor unit.

5

Establish communication via the shielded Ethernet cable to configure monitoring bands, alert/danger setpoints, and relay configurations.

FAQ

What is included in the 2300/20_KIT-001-00 package?

The kit includes one 2300/20 vibration monitor, a 6-foot shielded Ethernet cable, a 14x12x8 inch fiberglass windowed enclosure, two Commtest accelerometer sensors, and two 4.8m sensor cables.

Does this monitoring kit include a power supply?

No, the kit excludes the 24 VDC power supply. A regulated external power source must be provided separately to power the monitor.

Can I integrate proximity probes into this kit?

While the kit is shipped with two accelerometers, the 2300/20 monitor hardware is compatible with proximity probes if the input channel configuration is adjusted in the software.

Are the accelerometers and cables suitable for hazardous areas?

This specific KIT-001-00 configuration is the '00' approvals option, which is rated for non-hazardous (safe) environments. For hazardous zone deployment, contact us for certified alternatives.
