Bearing Man Group’s technical resources division has extended its range of SPM condition monitoring systems to include the new VibChecker portable instrument, designed for reliable on-site vibration measuring and assessment.
“The new VibChecker maintenance tool supports BMG’s BearingChecker, which is used to accurately assess the condition of rolling element bearings during operation in equipment like motors, fans, pumps and gearboxes,” says BMG technical director, Dave Russell. “The VibChecker gives early warning signs of developing machine problems in order to prevent premature replacement of machine parts.”
Vibration monitoring is a widely used preventative maintenance technique for the accurate assessment of the condition of machinery elements. The new lightweight VibChecker has an ergonomic design, easy button operation and a user friendly interface, making it an ideal maintenance tool for plant mechanics, machine operators and maintenance technicians. The instrument is designed for simple vibration checks and with built-in FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) capabilities it is also an efficient device for troubleshooting. Periodic vibration checks are easily done and reliable and accurate vibration information is delivered in seconds. Readings are immediately and automatically evaluated according to established ISO standards.
With an internal probe and connector for external ICP transducers, the VibChecker is capable of displacement, velocity and acceleration RMS and ISO 2372/10816 measurement in the 10-1000 Hz range.
Accessories include a comfort grip protective sleeve and a small portable MEMS transducer with magnetic foot, convenient for measurement in narrow spaces.
