Most industrial machinery exhibit a measurable warning sign that a fault, such as
a worn bearing, cracked gear, loss of lubrication, or an unbalance condition is
developing. Continuous vibration monitoring of critical machinery is widely
regarded as an effective means of detecting such faults before a failure occurs.
IMI Smart Vibration Sensors combine traditional vibration sensors, specialized
circuitry, advanced microprocessor technology, and targeted algorithms to provide
useful, accurate, and timely information regarding a machine’s health.
Typical USB Programmer Kit
IMI Smart Vibration Sensors are USB programmable (using an optional USB
Programmer) and have 2-pin polarity independent connections. The transmitters
are 2-wire, loop-powered and are completely compatible with most existing plant
monitoring systems such as PLC, DCS, or other Plant Information systems that
accept a 4-20 mA input. Explosion proof, CSA, and ATEX approvals for use in
hazardous areas are available for some models.
