VIB-M14 Universal Vibration Monitor

For vibration monitoring in time or frequency domain


Key features

  • Extremely flexible
  • True RMS and true peak measurement
  • Programmable high pass and low pass frequencies
  • 500 lines FFT with 10 free adjustable alarm bands for frequency selective monitoring
  • 2 Relay outputs with adjustable threshold for warning and alarm
  • Insulated current loop output (4 .. 20 mA) for RMS or peak
  • AC output for signal analyzers, recorders or scopes

About the VIB-M14 Universal Vibration Monitor

  • Vibration monitoring in time or frequency domain
  • Monitoring of vibration velocity (severity) of rotating machinery to ISO 20816-1 (formerly ISO 10816-1) and reciprocating engines to ISO 10816-6
  • Monitoring of bearing vibration with frequency analysis
  • Remote maintenance via RS-485 connection to PLC
  • Visualization of machine condition via digital networks
  • Emergency shut-off or alarm tripping in case of increasing vibration, e.g. at pumps, compressors, centri-fuges, fans, mixers, mills etc.
  • Production quality control

Properties

  • Extremely flexible
  • Setup and measurement via RS-485 bus at rear and front side USB interface
  • Monitoring of vibration acceleration or velocity
  • True RMS and true peak measurement
  • Programmable high pass and low pass frequencies
  • 500 lines FFT with 10 free adjustable alarm bands for frequency selective monitoring
  • 2 Relay outputs with adjustable threshold for warning and alarm
  • Teach-in function sets the warning / alarm limits auto-matically based on the current vibration level / spectrum
  • Insulated current loop output (4 .. 20 mA) for RMS or peak
  • AC output for signal analyzers, recorders or scopes
  • LED bar graph display for vibration signal and threshold
  • Time-saving installation by snap attachment on 35 mm DIN rails including connection of power supply and RS-485 via DIN rail connectors
