White Paper
Condition Monitoring
Learn more about how vibration sensors are used in predictive maintenance applications and how to choose the right technology.
Overview
In the past, accelerometers were primarily used for heavy, high-end machinery such as windmills, industrial pumps, compressors and HVAC systems. Driven by increased automation, demand is rising on high-volume, smaller systems such as machine spindles, conveyor belts, sorting tables, or machine tools which require better predictive maintenance. Machine downtime in these applications is a critical consideration in terms of customer experience and profitability. We see an increasing sensor demand for high volume and smaller machinery, driven by digital industrial transformation.
Critical Factors
For industrial condition monitoring and predictive maintenance applications the following vibration specification parameters are considered critical to ensure long-term, reliable, stable and accurate performance.
- Wide Frequency Response
- Measurement Resolution and Dynamic Range
- Long-Term Stability with Minimum Drift
- Operating Temperature Range
- Packaging Options and Ease of Installation
- Sensor Output Options
