Seismic Equipment Accessories

Seismic accessories are used to properly install your vibration sensors on your rotating and reciprocating machinery from mounting the sensor on the machine to connecting it to a monitoring system or control system, we have what you need to get the job done. Whether you want to run an armored cable or cable in conduit, we have you covered.

Our bushings, mounting adapters, junction boxes, cable assemblies, and conduit fittings can improve your installation efficiency, even in the face of heavy industrial use. Installers can use these seismic equipment accessories to facilitate their work via industry proven mounting technologies. It’s important to choose seismic accessories based not only on the size of the equipment, but also on the individual circumstances of the operation.

Mechanical / Electrical Connections
Our seismic accessories offer robust mechanical and electrical connections for industrial use. Our splash-proof connectors and armored cables offer ease of installation. For conduit applications, many customers have used our conduit elbow to facilitate sensor and cable installations.

When conduit is used, ensure that flexible conduit is used within two feet (0.6 meters) of the sensor. This allows the sensor to move prior to any rigid conduit. When using armored cable, ensure that adequate bend radiuses are used to prevent damaging the cable within the armor.

Customers have found that when they do not have adequate clearance to take portable data measurements, mounting a permanent seismic sensor along with an armored cable to a patch panel has been an effective way to gain access to the measurement location.
