Accelerometer for RMS and peak-to-peak measurement / 4–20 mA output / Acceleration, velocity, displacement / Magnet-mounted sensor / Frequency range 10 Hz–1000 Hz
The Accelerometer offers a reliable solution for monitoring vibrations in industrial machinery. The device can measure and output either acceleration, velocity, or displacement. The desired measurement parameter is conveniently set using integrated DIP switches. The device operates in the frequency range of 10 Hz to 1000 Hz and meets the requirements of ISO 2954. The measurement ranges are 0.5 to 199.9 m/s² for acceleration, 0.5 to 199.9 mm/s for velocity, and 0 to 1.999 mm for displacement. The high resolution of 0.1 m/s², 0.1 mm/s, and 0.001 mm enables precise measurement of even the smallest vibrations. Accuracy is ±5% + 2 digits under typical operating conditions.
The Accelerometer supports both RMS and peak-to-peak measurements, offering versatile analysis options. The analogue 4–20 mA interface enables easy integration into existing monitoring systems. Separate vibration measurement is carried out via a robust probe with a magnetic mount, ensuring flexible and secure attachment to the measurement object. The Accelerometer’s housing is rated to IP63, and the probe to IP60. Power is supplied via 12–30 V DC, allowing the Accelerometer to be integrated into a wide variety of industrial environments.
Thanks to zero and span adjustment, the Accelerometer can be optimally adapted to the respective measurement requirements. Operation is particularly user-friendly thanks to the compact design and ease of use. The Accelerometer is ideal for condition monitoring of machinery, preventive maintenance, and continuous process monitoring in industry. Typical applications include the monitoring of motors, pumps, fans, and other rotating machinery in production, maintenance, and quality assurance.
