The Bently Nevada Seismoprobe Velocity Transducer Systems are specifically engineered to measure the absolute vibration of bearing housings, casings, or structures relative to free space. These systems are composed of a transducer and the necessary cable, forming a two-wire setup.

The Seismoprobe family utilizes moving-coil technology in its transducers, which produces a voltage output directly proportional to the vibration velocity of the transducer. One significant advantage of moving-coil transducers over solid-state velocity transducers is their reduced sensitivity to impacts or impulsive excitations. This makes them particularly suitable for certain applications where such disturbances are common.

Moreover, moving-coil transducers do not require external power sources, adding to their convenience, especially for portable measurement tasks. This inherent feature of not needing external power makes these transducers practical and efficient for various field applications, ensuring ease of use and reliable performance in measuring vibration velocity.
