Whether you choose a 2-axis or 3-axis solution, modern vibration sensors continuously measure machine vibration across one or more axes—typically capturing parameters like velocity (RMS or peak), acceleration, kurtosis, and crest factor at bandwidths reaching into the kilohertz range.
By mounting them near critical components (e.g., motor bearings), these sensors accurately detect early signs of unbalance, misalignment, bearing wear, and other mechanical issues. Data is collected in real time and can be accessed via standard protocols such as RS-485 Modbus or through wireless connectivity, providing maintenance teams with actionable insights for proactive machine health monitoring.
QM30VT3 3-Axis Vibration Sensor with VIBE-IQ machine learning enables predictive maintenance, real-time alerts, and Modbus integration to prevent downtime.
QM30VT Series vibration and temperature sensors offer exceptional levels of accuracy to detect even slight changes in machine health and performance, enabling early identification of potential problems.
