Precise transducer orientation relative to the vibration source is required to minimize transverse response, which is limited to less than 5% of the axial sensitivity. Maintaining signal linearity and minimizing noise requires high-integrity cable shielding, similar to standard eddy-current probe scaling practices. Proper mounting ensures that the casing vibration data accurately reflects rotor dynamics characteristics transmitted to the machine structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x 190501-00-00-00 Velomitor CT Transducer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface Preparation: Clean the mounting surface to ensure flat, metal-to-metal contact with the transducer base to maintain high-frequency response.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting Torque: Utilize the specified mounting bolt and torque settings to prevent mechanical resonance of the transducer mount itself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector Integrity: Secure the MIL-C-5015 connector and verify that the mating cable assembly is properly strain-relieved to prevent intermittent electrical contact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal Shielding: Use shielded twisted-pair cabling and ensure the shield is grounded at only one end to prevent ground loops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCan this transducer be used for high-frequency measurements?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Velomitor CT is optimized for low-frequency applications (3 Hz to 900 Hz).
