We invented the technology of simple, affordable machinery protection with our vibration switch offerings, revolutionary digital proximity systems and 4-20mA vibration transmitters, robust high-temperature velocity sensors, and innovative impact transmitter technology. We look forward to working with our customers to provide the best solutions to meet their requirements.

What Are Vibration Monitoring Systems?

A vibration monitoring system is a set of sensors used to measure small changes in the movement of different types of rotating and reciprocating machinery. It is utilized in several applications, primarily to monitor the conditions of motors, pumps, fans, compressors and turbines. The sensors of a machine vibration monitoring system are set to establish baseline conditions to help identify any variations in machine behavior, including unbalance, misalignment, wear, looseness and many other machine faults.

By consistently measuring the condition of rotating and reciprocating parts, vibration monitoring is the means to provide early warning against potentially serious faults in equipment. A vibration monitoring system’s ability to detect abnormalities will help you predict and avoid failures earlier, saving you the expense of unplanned outages and downtime.
