CA202 144-202-000-225

Product Overview

CA202 144-202-000-225 is a high-performance, industrial-grade piezoelectric accelerometer from the VM product line. This specific model is a standard version equipped with an 11-meter integral cable, designed for continuous vibration monitoring in demanding but non-hazardous industrial environments. Piezoelectric accelerometer embodies a robust, hermetically sealed construction that guarantees long-term reliability when exposed to moisture, steam, oil, and other corrosive contaminants. Utilizing a symmetrical shear-mode piezoelectric sensing element, the CA202 delivers high-fidelity vibration data critical for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance of critical machinery such as turbines, pumps, compressors, and fans.

Comparison with Similar Products

The CA202 144-202-000-225 standard version is highly suitable for vibration monitoring in various heavy industrial environments, especially for those with harsh conditions that do not require explosion-proof certification.

In terms of power generation, monitor the gas turbines, steam turbines, generators, as well as large wind turbines and water pumps within the power plant.

Monitor the vibration of fine mills, pulpers and large rollers exposed to steam and humid environments in pulp and paper mills.

Monitor the status of key metal and mining equipment such as granulators, crushers, semi-autogenous mills and fans.

Monitor the propulsion systems, thrusters and water pumps on ships and in non-hazardous areas near the sea.

Water treatment and sewage treatment can monitor large water pumps and aeration blowers.

Large rotating equipment for heavy manufacturing, including the cement, chemical and automotive industries.

Essential signal conditioner

The IPC-704 / IPC-707 signal conditioner is an essential accessory for the CA202. The IPC704 can convert high-impedance charge signals into low-impedance voltage signals, provide programmable gain, and feature adjustable high-pass and low-pass filters.

Installation accessories

The MA133 installation adapter kit includes a Micaver® (mica glass) insulated base. It is crucial for installing the sensor on a high-temperature surface (>120°C), as it can protect the sensor base and the machine from heat transfer and provide electrical isolation.

Supporting products that meet other demands

For hazardous areas, choose the CA202 Ex version (e.g., 144-202-000-125), which is equipped with the same 11-meter cable but includes ATEX and IECEx certifications.

The CA204 series is specially designed for more extreme temperature environments, with a maximum temperature of up to 300°C.

For simpler systems (if the environment permits), and for applications with lower temperatures and milder environmental conditions, the Meggitt series IEPE accelerometer can be considered. This accelerometer does not require an external charge amplifier.
