Repair and Maintenance
PCB guarantees Total Customer Satisfaction through its
“Lifetime Warranty Plus” on all Platinum Stock Products
sold by PCB and through its limited warranties on all other
PCB Stock, Standard and Special products. Due to the
sophisticated nature of our sensors and associated
instrumentation, field servicing and repair is not
recommended and, if attempted, will void the factory
warranty.
Beyond routine calibration and battery replacements
where applicable, our products require no user
maintenance. Clean electrical connectors, housings, and
mounting surfaces with solutions and techniques that will
not harm the material of construction. Observe caution
when using liquids near devices that are not hermetically
sealed. Such devices should only be wiped with a
dampened cloth—never saturated or submerged.
In the event that equipment becomes damaged or ceases
to operate, our Application Engineers are here to support
your troubleshooting efforts 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week. Call or email with model and serial number as well
as a brief description of the problem.
Calibration
Routine calibration of sensors and associated
instrumentation is necessary to maintain measurement
accuracy. We recommend calibrating on an annual basis,
after exposure to any extreme environmental influence,
or prior to any critical test.
PCB Piezotronics is an ISO-9001 certified company whose
calibration services are accredited by A2LA to ISO/IEC
17025, with full traceability to SI through N.I.S.T. In
addition to our standard calibration services, we also offer
specialized tests, including: sensitivity at elevated or
cryogenic temperatures, phase response, extended high
or low frequency response, extended range, leak testing,
hydrostatic pressure testing, and others. For more
information, contact your local PCB Piezotronics
distributor, sales representative, or factory customer
service representative.
Returning Equipment
If factory repair is required, our representatives will
provide you with a Return Material Authorization (RMA)
number, which we use to reference any information you
have already provided and expedite the repair process.
This number should be clearly marked on the outside of
all returned package(s) and on any packing list(s)
accompanying the shipment.

Introduction
The Model 640/641/645/646 B Series Industrial 4-20mA Sensors combine the capabilities of a piezoelectric
vibration sensor and a 4-20mA vibration transmitter. The sensor outputs a 4-20mA signal that is proportional to
the overall velocity or acceleration of the machinery. Ideal for monitoring the vibration of process equipment such
as fans, motors and pumps, the output of the sensor is used for process control or predictive maintenance. There
are many options in this series. Please refer to specific specification sheets for further details.
General Features
Imbedded Piezoelectric Accelerometer for improved accuracy and frequency response.
Vibration range can be in Acceleration or Velocity.
Allows for continuous vibration monitoring of critical applications.
Reduces sophisticated vibration analysis requirements.
RV (Raw Vibration) option for conducting frequency analysis and machinery diagnostics.
RVVO (Raw Vibration Velocity Output) option for conducting freq. analysis and machinery diagnosis.
TO (Temperature Output) option via an independent 4-20mA loop.
Readily interfaces to existing process control and predictive maintenance equipment.
Rugged stainless steel construction for applications in harsh environments.
Flexible design allows for various custom requirements.

Operation and Wiring
Standard Wiring
The Model 640/641/645/646 B Series operates from a standard 2-Wire, 4-20mA loop. If using a loop powered
unit, attach the positive (+) input from the power supply to Pin A or Red wire on the sensor and the negative (-)
input from the power supply to Pin B or Blue Wire of the sensor.
Figure 1 –wiring: loop powered Figure 2 –wiring: loop powered/DC source
If using a standard DC power supply, install either an ammeter and/or load resistor in line with the output, Pin B or
Blue Wire.
The resistor will generate a DC voltage that is proportional to current by:
V = IR
If R = 500 ohms and I = 6 mA, then V = 3 VDC
Note:
- Resistor value must be less than: (Vsupply –12) x 50.
- For integral cable sensors: RED wire is positive, BLUE wire is negative.
