New vibration sensor has choice of output signals
A new vibration sensor is designed to meet the requirements of building service managers, who are using vibration monitoring systems to help provide trouble-free utility services for their workplace
The meter can be purchased from Monitran on stand F30 and, in addition to the discount (GBP200 off the usual price), the meter will come with two years' free calibration, as opposed to the standard one year.
This equates to a further saving of GBP95.
The Portable Vibration Meter is easy to use, requires no connection to a PC and is ideal for routine systems checks.
Typical applications include checking motors, gearboxes, fans, pumps and compressors.
Donald Lyon, MD of Monitran, comments: "Vibration levels, whether audible or not, frequently provide the earliest indication that plant equipment is failing.
Many engineers and site managers are aware of this, but few are keen to invest in the appropriate measurement equipment, even though doing so could save thousands of pounds worth of downtime if the plant fails".
Lyon goes on to say that by reducing the price of its Portable Vibration Meter by about a third, Monitran is making it easy for companies to implement condition-based predictive maintenance routines, or enhance existing ones.
In addition, of course, Monitran experts will be present on stand F30 at MAINTEC ready to give advice on vibration monitoring techniques and solutions.
The Monitran Portable Vibration Meter is lightweight (850g) and compact (170 x 100 x 45mm), and is supplied with a probe, magnet, user manual, calibration certificate and batteries - all in a carrying case.
Lyon concludes: "There are a number of portable vibration meters on the market but few boast the accuracy and precision of the Monitran unit.
After all, more than 21 years of R+D, industrial experience and customer dialogue have gone into our equipment.
There is no substitute for that, and it's what helps keep us at the very forefront of vibration monitoring and analysis".
