Emerson introduces wireless vibration transmitter
December 2007
Sensors & Transducers
The CSI 9420 Machinery Health Transmitter expands the range of Smart Wireless field instruments for process monitoring and predictive diagnostics.
This wireless vibration transmitter provides monitoring of mechanical equipment delivering predictive diagnostics for improved reliability and plant safety.
CSI 9420 Vibration transmitter
As a component of Emerson's Smart Wireless solutions, the rugged industrial transmitter connects quickly, easily, and economically to any machine. Through the PlantWeb digital plant architecture, the transmitter delivers vibration information over a highly reliable wireless self-organising network for use by operations and maintenance personnel.
Configuration, diagnostics, and alerts are available in AMS Suite predictive maintenance software. Vibration data is also available in data historians or any control system for trending and analysis with other process parameters. In addition to measuring overall vibration, the CSI 9420 Machinery Health Transmitter includes PeakVue technology for advanced bearing diagnostics.
The device can be applied on a wide range of equipment such as pumps, motors, fans, compressors, pulverisers and many other types of equipment. Benefits from deploying the wireless vibration transmitter go beyond equipment reliability to include health, safety, and environmental applications.
Emerson's Smart Wireless solutions extend the PlantWeb architecture to deliver new information access and mobility for improved decision-making and plant performance. The Smart Wireless field solutions integrate smart monitoring instruments wirelessly in a self-organising mesh network that delivers greater than 99,9% reliability by automatically adapting as devices are added or removed, or obstructions encountered. Smart Wireless products are supported by Emerson's guarantee of an easy migration path to industry standards and full compliance with the WirelessHART standard.
