Powering: All ICP

sensors require constant current excitation for proper operation. For this reason, use only PCB
constant-current signal conditioners or other approved constant-current sources. The power supply consists of a
current-regulated, 2-20 mA at 18 to 28 VDC source. This power is regulated by a current-limiting circuit, which
provides the constant-current excitation required for proper operation of ICP
sensors.
In general, battery-powered devices offer versatility for portable, low-noise measurements, whereas line-powered
units provide the capability for continuous monitoring. Consult the Vibration Division’s product catalog for more
information about signal conditioners.
NOTE: Under no circumstances should a voltage be supplied to an ICP
accelerometer without a current-regulating
diode or equivalent electrical circuit. This may include ohmmeters, multi-meters and continuity testers.
Safe Use
After completing the system setup, switch on the signal conditioner and allow 1 to 2 minutes for the system to
stabilize. The meter (or LED) on the signal conditioner should be reading “green.” This indicates proper operation
and you may begin taking measurements. If a faulty condition is indicated (red or yellow reading), first check all
system connections, then check the functionality of the cable and signal conditioner. If the system still does not
operate properly, consult a PCB factory representative.
NOTE: Always operate the accelerometer within the limitations listed on the enclosed Specification Sheet.
Operating the device outside these parameters can cause temporary or permanent damage to the sensor.
