Frequently Asked Questions of 200350-09-00-01

Q: Is 200350‑09‑00‑01 a proximity sensor (displacement or shaft clearance sensor)?

A: Based on credible public documentation, no. The 200350 series is documented only as a piezoelectric accelerometer (vibration sensor), not a proximity/displacement sensor. If you encounter a listing calling it a “Sensor Proximity,” that likely originates from a mis‑labeling

 or a non‑official seller mistake — not from the manufacturer’s naming or documentation.

Q: If I need a “proximity (displacement) sensor,” should I use a 200350 accelerometer?

A: No — a 200350 accelerometer measures vibration (acceleration). It does not provide displacement measurements or shaft‑to‑bearing

 clearance/proximity.For displacement / “proximity” measurement around a shaft or rotor, you should instead use

a dedicated proximity probe / transducer system from Bently — such as those in their

“Proximitor / 3300 series” or other eddy‑current-based displacement sensors.

Q: Could 200350‑09‑00‑01 be a “special variant” with added proximity capability?

A: It’s highly unlikely. The publicly available datasheet for 200350 (and 200355) is very detailed and shows no variant that

offers displacement/proximity sensing. Also, no technical note, manual, or Bently documentation

suggests that “09‑00‑01” (or similar suffix) corresponds to a proximity sensor variant —

instead suffixes refer to mechanical mounting options, tolerances,

 and approval certifications.
