Vibration sensor for mobile machines
Always keeping an eye on the mobile machine status
Whether there is an imbalance in the rotating blades of a mowing machine, cavitation or foreign objects in mobile drainage pumps, impacts on critical components: If such issues go unnoticed, they can cause costly damage and long downtimes.
Convenient and informative
The 3-axis condition monitoring sensor VMB301 is designed for use in mobile applications and can be seamlessly integrated into the vehicle network and ifm’s system portfolio thanks to its CANopen interface. The integrated 120 Ohm bus resistor can optionally be activated or deactivated via CANopen. This reduces costs and increases flexibility.
Comprehensive condition monitoring
Once integrated, the VMB301 transmits a large number of proven condition indicators in real time: Fatigue (v-RMS), mechanical friction (a-RMS), shocks (a-Peak), mechanical stresses (d-Peak2Peak), statistical bearing wear (crest) and surface temperature. The innovative BearingScout™ for bearing analysis and dynamic unbalance measurement complete the VMB301’s range of features as a standalone condition monitoring solution for mobile machines.
For remote monitoring, the condition and machine data can be transmitted via radio modem to mobile IoT, ifm’s IIoT platform for mobile machines.
