Product Description

The Wilcoxon Sensing Technologies PC420V-EX series vibration transmitter is explosion-proof certified for use in hazardous locations. It provides a 4-20mA output proportional to velocity vibration, allowing for continuous trending of overall machine vibration. This trend data can easily be compared against standard vibration guides, can alert users to changing machine conditions, and can help guide maintenance in prioritizing the need for service. The choice of RMS or peak equivalent output allows the user to choose the sensor that best fits their requirements.

The PC420V-EX is constructed with 303 stainless steel and is corrosion-resistant. It features a 3/8-24 x 3/8 depth tapped hole, SF20-2 mounting stud (included), and 13-foot 18 AWG output leads. The PC420V-EX is manufactured in an ISO 9001 facility.
