How it works

The CV-87 is specifically a seismic type, meaning it measures absolute vibration velocity with respect to an inertial reference. The sensor employs a moving-coil transduction element within a housing rated for high temperatures.[1]

Applications

The CV-87 is intended for vibration monitoring on gas turbines, where high temperatures demand a rugged sensor design. The sensor is also suitable for other industrial rotating equipment that requires reliable velocity measurement in harsh thermal conditions. Applications include balance-of-plant machinery, pumps, and small turbines where extreme temperature tolerance is necessary.[1]
