VVB IO-Link vibration sensor: Network configuration
Thank you for your purchase of a VVB IO-Link vibration sensor. On the following pages, you will find information to help you integrate the sensor and answers to frequently asked questions.
Should you need additional support, feel free to contact our service center at 800-441-8246 and speak to one of our application engineers.
VVB integration
The VV family is flexible enough to provide varying degrees of control so it can scale as your level of IIoT integration grows. From sensor to ERP.
IO-Link system
Adding sensors to your existing IO-Link network provides a quick way to achieve Industry 4.0, IIoT and RtM.
Available cyclic data:
- Acceleration peak (a-Peak)
- Average velocity (v-RMS)
- Average acceleration (a-RMS)
- Surface temperature
- Crest factor
Available acyclic data:
- Peak values of all 4 vibration process values
- Minimum and maximum temperature values
- Hardware and parameter errors
PLC integration to higher-level systems
Collect and evaluate IO-Link measurement values in standard PLC control. Optionally, transfer data to SCADA, MES or other plant control systems.
Available cyclic data:
- Acceleration peak (a-Peak)
- Average velocity (v-RMS)
- Average acceleration (a-RMS)
- Surface temperature
- Crest factor
Available acyclic data:
- Peak values of all 4 vibration process values
- Minimum and maximum temperature values
- Hardware and parameter errors
Independent data collection system
Collect the raw vibration signal as a BLOB (Binary Large Object) data set and manipulate it as desired. Create an independent monitoring network for notification and visualization.
- Machine trending
- Condition change
- Email and text alert messages

Real-time maintenance with VVB and the IIoT platform ifm moneo
With it’s IIoT platform moneo, especially with moneo RTM, ifm offers a ready-to-use and powerful condition monitoring software. moneo RTM can be used to implement fully customizable dashboards for comprehensive plant monitoring and presentation of all important process data.
In case of damage, an alarm message is sent directly to the user. This makes it possible to react quickly and avoid a possible total failure.
Using the RTM Advanced Vibration Analysis add-on, the raw data records of the VVB sensor (BLOB) triggered by moneo RTM can be visualised in the time domain and the damage root cause can be diagnosed.
