Product facts
Product Overview
Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 is retained as a top-exit IEPE accelerometer record in the AM3100T2-Z2 family. The sensor combines a PZT ceramic shear element and integrated electronics in a 316L stainless-steel case, producing a voltage signal proportional to machine-case acceleration.
Dynamic performance for Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 follows the AM3100T2-Z2 family basis: 100 mV/g sensitivity, an 80 g peak measurement range and a 0.4 to 14,000 Hz response at the 3 dB limits. The internal circuit is powered from an 18 to 30 Vdc constant-current source at 2 to 10 mA.
The top interface of Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 uses a two-pin MIL-C-5015-style connector, while the base uses a 1/4-28 UNF tapped mounting hole. Its hermetically sealed 316L stainless-steel case operates across the documented -55 to +120 °C temperature range.

Measurement path
Product Functions: IEPE Signal Conversion
Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 converts case acceleration into a low-impedance voltage through a shear-mode ceramic element and integrated electronics.
Integrated circuit
The internal electronics convert element charge to the nominal 100 mV/g voltage scale while operating from constant-current excitation.
Shared conductor
The two-wire IEPE path carries supply current to the sensor and returns the acceleration signal relative to common.
Three-step installation
Installation & Integration: Top-Exit IEPE Sensor
Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 is installed by coupling its base to the measurement surface, preserving the top-exit connector orientation and wiring the two-wire IEPE path to a constant-current input.
01
1. Prepare the mounting point
Provide a clean, flat machine surface and use the 1/4-28 mounting interface so the sensor base is firmly coupled and its sensing axis follows the required vibration direction.
02
2. Connect the top-exit cable
Mate the two-pin MIL-C-5015-style connector without side-loading it; connect pin A to power/signal, pin B to common and the shell to the cable shield.
03
3. Verify power and area rating
Terminate the shielded twisted pair at an 18 to 30 Vdc, 2 to 10 mA constant-current input and apply the Zone 2 installation requirements associated with the AM3100T2-Z2 approval.
Practical selection and use
Frequently Asked Questions
What power source is required for Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00?
Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 uses an IEPE constant-current source: 18 to 30 Vdc with 2 to 10 mA current regulation. A passive voltage input without excitation will not power the integrated electronics.
How should Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 be oriented during mounting?
Mount Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 through its 1/4-28 base so the sensing axis follows the required case-vibration direction. Prepare a flat, clean mounting surface and avoid side loading the top connector.
Which cable construction is suitable for Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00?
Use shielded twisted-pair cabling for Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00, keeping the run within the recommended 30.5 m limit. Maintain shell grounding and the A/B pin assignments at the top-exit connector.
What frequency range should be used for Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00?
The AM3100T2-Z2 family basis for Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 is 0.7 to 9,000 Hz within ±10% and 0.4 to 14,000 Hz at the 3 dB points. The selected monitoring band should stay inside the required accuracy envelope.
What can cause an incorrect bias reading from Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00?
For Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00, check constant-current excitation, connector pin assignment, shield continuity and cable insulation. The nominal bias is 12 Vdc, so a missing supply or shorted lead will disturb the operating point.
What environmental construction is used by Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00?
Bently Nevada AM3100T2-Z2-00 uses a hermetically sealed 316L stainless-steel case and the AM3100T2-Z2 family operates from -55 to +120 °C.
