Technology

efector octavis is a vibration monitor which not only detects vibration data, but also carries out signal analysis and machine diagnosis directly on the machine. The machine condition is determined and is forwarded to the controllers or to SCADA software. The main requirements for modern machine monitoring are fulfilled: Compatibility, modularity and transferable configuration.

The compatibility with data structures such as the OPC-interface makes it possible to integrate condition data into a higher level system.

With the requirement for modularity the user can define the extent of condition monitoring to be imple - mented – this means the complete range of diagnosis is possible right from the “first unit”.

Transferable configuration is attained with application-related parameter sets. A wizard function in the software guides the user through creating, managing and archiving the monitoring parameters.

All units belonging to the octavis family type VE/VSE have an internal trend memory. This allows a detailed analysis and optimisation of the application without external data recording. The storage intervals are freely selectable. This means that the storage length of the nonvolatile ring memory is adjusted to the requirements.
