Vibration Systems & Switches

Our range of accessories for vibration monitoring includes DIN rail mounted monitoring and protection modules, vibration switches and charge amplifiers, with a choice of velocity or AC acceleration outputs.

Industrial Vibration Monitoring Systems

Vibration systems and switches are essential components in predictive maintenance and monitoring solutions, designed to ensure the reliability and efficiency of machinery across various industries. Our industrial vibration monitoring systems are used to detect abnormal vibrations, which are often early indicators of potential mechanical failures. By integrating vibration monitoring and switch systems, companies can prevent unexpected downtime, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the lifespan of their equipment.

Monitoring Systems

Monitoring systems are designed to provide continuous or periodic data on the condition of machinery. These systems can detect early signs of wear and tear, misalignment, or other issues that could lead to equipment failure. The data collected is crucial for planning maintenance activities and avoiding unexpected breakdowns.

Key Features:

• Continuous or periodic monitoring capabilities
• Integration with various sensors (e.g., accelerometers)
• Data logging for trend analysis
• Early warning alerts to prevent equipment failure
• Compatibility with existing control systems

Vibration Switches

Vibration switches are devices that activate when the vibration levels exceed a pre-set threshold, triggering an alarm or shutting down the equipment to prevent damage. These switches are critical for safeguarding machinery by providing immediate response to excessive vibration.

Key Features:

• Adjustable vibration threshold settings
• Automatic shutdown or alarm activation
• Compact and robust design
• Easy installation and maintenance
• Reliable protection for critical machinery

Charge Amplifiers

Charge amplifiers are used to convert the high-impedance signal from a piezoelectric sensor into a low-impedance signal, which is suitable for transmission over long distances without signal degradation. These devices are essential for accurate vibration measurement in industrial environments.

Key Features:

• High signal integrity over long distances
• Low noise operation
• Wide frequency response range
• Compatible with various piezoelectric sensors
• Durable and reliable performance in harsh conditions

Accelerometer Power Supply Modules

Accelerometer power supply modules provide the necessary power to accelerometers and other vibration sensors, ensuring their optimal operation. These modules are critical for maintaining the accuracy and reliability of vibration monitoring systems.

Key Features:

• Stable and regulated power supply for sensors
• Multiple output channels for powering several sensors
• Integrated signal conditioning
• Compact design for easy integration
• High reliability and longevity

Display Units

Display units provide real-time visualisation of vibration data, allowing operators to monitor the condition of machinery at a glance. These units are typically used in conjunction with monitoring systems to display critical parameters such as vibration amplitude, frequency, and trend data.

Key Features:

• Real-time data display
• User-friendly interface
• Customizable display options
• Integration with monitoring systems
• Alarm indicators for critical vibration levels

Module Enclosures

Module enclosures house and protect the various components of vibration monitoring systems, such as sensors, amplifiers, and power supply modules. These enclosures are designed to withstand harsh industrial environments and ensure the longevity and reliability of the housed components.

Key Features:

• Robust construction for harsh environments
• Protection against dust, moisture, and contaminants
• Easy access for maintenance and adjustments
• Customisable configurations to fit specific requirements
• Compatibility with a wide range of monitoring components
