⚙️ Product Description
The Meggitt Vibro-Meter 204-450-000-002 is an IQS450 signal conditioner used as part of a proximity measurement system for shaft displacement and position monitoring. The IQS450 provides the high-frequency excitation required by compatible proximity transducers and converts the sensor signal into a standard voltage or current output for connection to monitoring, protection, or control equipment. The official technical documentation identifies 204-450-000-002 as the IQS450 ordering number and specifies standard, Ex i, and Ex nA environment options depending on the complete ordering configuration.
