The ST5484E Series is an innovative line of 2-wire seismic velocity transmitters that integrates multiple components into a single, rugged package. Each unit combines:
Piezoelectric accelerometer (sensing element)
Signal integrator (converts acceleration to velocity)
RMS/Peak detector (signal processing)
4-20 mA signal conditioner (output generation)
This all-in-one design allows for direct machine mounting on bearing housings or machine cases without requiring any intervening signal conditioning equipment .
Key Features

Housing Material 304 or 316 stainless steel (depending on option)
Operating Temperature -40°C to +100°C
Enclosure Rating IP66/IP67, NEMA 4X
Hazardous Area Approvals CSA, ATEX, IECEx, INMETRO (Ex ia IIC T4, Ex d IIC T4)
Applications
The ST5484E Series is ideal for general-purpose vibration monitoring on rotating and reciprocating machinery with speeds between 120 and 6,000 rpm :
Pumps, motors, and compressors
Fans, blowers, and centrifuges
Turbines and generators
Gearboxes and engines
Cooling towers and reciprocating machinery
Particularly well-suited for machines with rolling-element bearings, where shaft vibration transmits directly to the bearing housing .
Installation Options
The series offers multiple connection configurations :
Flying leads (2-wire or 4-wire)
2-pin or 4-pin terminal blocks
2-pin MIL-spec connector (hermetically sealed, IP67 rated)
Mounting stud sizes vary, and accessories like conduit elbows (8200-001) are available for hazardous area installations .
