About This Product
Engineering students place the meter on motors, pumps and rotating rigs to compare vibration levels and spot imbalance or looseness. Reading all three quantities on one machine shows how acceleration, velocity and displacement relate, and the AC output lets the waveform be viewed on an oscilloscope. The Vibration Meter can be supplied on export terms to Portugal, Madagascar, São Tomé and Príncipe, Grenada and Belize.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the high/low frequency switch on the Vibration Meter do?
It sets the acceleration band to 10 Hz to 1 kHz (low) or 1 kHz to 15 kHz (high), helping to separate different sources of vibration.
Can the meter be connected to other instruments?
Yes. It has an AC signal output of 2V peak for an earphone, recorder or oscilloscope.
