Application
The instrument VS6 is a very simple and economical
solution for monitoring mechanical vibration. It contain both
sensor and signal conditioning circuit. The Vibration Switch VS6
features a relay for tripping external equipment in case of high
vibration levels. It can be mounted, for instance,
at a rotating machine and will provide information about the
running condition if it is observed in regular intervals. This instrument
can be used with minimal installation and training time.
Typical applications are:
-
Vibration monitoring of fans, pumps, compressors etc.
-
Vibration detector for track vehicles
-
Emergency shut-off in production installations where vibration may endanger personnel and equipment
-
Monitoring vibrations as part of process control
-
Protection of fragile goods during transportation
-
Safety switch at doors, gates etc.
