Product Overview
The Wilcoxon PC420A-DA series offers dual output, loop-powered acceleration sensors with dynamic vibration output, designed for continuous 24/7 machine monitoring. These sensors integrate seamlessly into existing PLC, DCS, or SCADA systems, providing real-time data for trending and early detection of changing machine conditions. Users can select between peak equivalent, true RMS, or true peak output to best suit their industrial requirements. The 4-20 mA output is proportional to acceleration vibration, and the dynamic output signal, derived from an internal buffered amplifier, allows for in-depth analysis. Manufactured in an approved ISO 9001 facility, these sensors are ideal for guiding maintenance prioritization and ensuring operational efficiency.
