Loop powered vibration plus temperature transmitters
November 2012Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
The CMCP-420VT range, are solid state, loop powered vibration transmitters that provide a 4-20 mA output proportional to overall vibration in terms of velocity. The unit continuously monitors machinery health and transmits directly into a PLC or DCS for trending, alarm and machine shutdown. In addition, it provides access to the dynamic transducer output. Portable data collector/analysers can be utilised for detailed machine fault analysis. The units can also be ordered with an integral temperature sensor with a separate 4-20 mA, thus being able to monitor vibration and temperature at the same sampling point on the machine.
Installation is easy. Simply mount the CMCP-420VT into a tapped hole in the bearing housing or machine case, connect two wires into a 4-20 mA loop, and it is ready to interface into a PLC or DCS. An optional integral LED display may also be supplied.
