Get alerted of excessive vibration on machines or equipment
A must for legacy machinery and it-can’t-fail systems, Monnit’s Accelerometer Vibration Wireless Sensors use an accelerometer to continually measure vibration, speed, duration, and frequency for all three axes. Excessive vibration often indicates failing machine health, overdue maintenance, or structural damage.
Monnit’s vibration sensor alerts you (via text, email, or call) if an asset moves more than it should. The sensor is highly configurable—measurement intervals can be set as low as one minute.
Business-ready Sensors
The Wireless Vibration Meter Sensor reports speed (mm/s) and frequency (Hz) on all three axes, and duty cycle (how much of the report interval vibration was present).
The Wireless Vibration Meter Sensor measures the vibration intensity of the system to which it is attached. The sensor uses an accelerometer to capture g-force on all axes and then calculates speed and frequency from that acceleration data. The Vibration Meter reports the duty cycle, or how long the sensor was measuring vibrations throughout the heartbeat.
This sensor come standard with two replaceable AA batteries. The typical battery life is approximately 10 years.
