The Metrix Vibra-Check VM2800 portable vibration meter obtains accurate spot measurements of machinery vibration, with displacement, velocity and acceleration modes providing complete analysis.
All three measurements can be read on a backlit LCD display in user-selectable English/metric units.
A high-temperature accelerometer sensor has a removable magnetic mounting base for attachment of a stinger and is internally protected against thermal shock, electrical noise and amplitude overload.
Using a true RMS detector, the meter can switch between RMS or peak units.
The piezoelectric sensor has bias indication and adjustable sensitivity.
The IP65 housing has EMI protection and uses a standard alkaline battery that gives about 30 hours of operation.
The meter is supplied with a carrying pouch that keeps it protected but ready for use by simply placing the accelerometer on a machine and tilting the pouch up to view a reading on the display.
Applications range from motors and generators to fans, pumps and compressors, turbines, natural gas engines and piping vibration.
It is also suitable for accuracy verification of installed shutdown switches and monitoring systems.
