Why use wireless vibration sensors

Do you see challenges from a lack of resources to take route-based measurements from all of your critical machines? Do you have problems accessing many machines due to covers, panels, or hot/hazardous locations?

If yes, then your team needs can benefit from wireless vibration sensors.

Wireless vibration monitoring sensors recognize a change in vibration-based on pre-set thresholds and will automatically send an email notification to a maintenance team member. The early warning allows the maintenance team to act early before an asset fails.

There are various types of wireless vibration monitoring sensors, but two common ones that automate the data collection process are screening vibration sensors and analysis vibration sensors.

Screening sensors monitor machine vibration data in real-time and are used to detect abnormal machine vibration. They are typically mounted on semi-critical and vital machines. The data is optimally stored in a central location, such as on a cloud-based computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) which makes the data accessible remotely from anywhere, via a computer, laptop, tablet, or another mobile device.

The technologically advanced Fluke 3562 Vibration Screening Sensor screens overall vibration levels, temperature, and humidity and trends the nine highest FFT peaks by magnitude.

Analysis vibration sensors monitor machine vibration data continuously and provide a deeper dive into machine health data. The extended sensor data it collects allows reliability leaders to identify the exact source of a mechanical problem and the root cause using analysis vibration software.

An example is a high-resolution, high-frequency vibration sensor, like the Fluke 3563 Analysis Vibration Sensor. The robust sensor leverages powerful piezoelectric accelerometer technology that helps technicians, regardless of experience, gain insights into machinery health and enables reliability professionals to track asset performance data and analyze faults continuously.

Tracking excess vibration in rotating equipment is critical to identifying asset issues early and keeping plants and facilities up and running. A wireless vibration system uses sensors and other tools and devices to measure changes in amplitude, frequency, and intensity of forces. Studying vibration measurements enables maintenance teams to unveil imbalance, looseness, misalignment, or bearing wear in equipment before asset failure.
