Introducing the Wilcoxon VDS130 4-channel IEPE to MQTT Converter for Vibration Monitoring

The Wilcoxon VDS130 is a 4-channel IEPE to MQTT converter that functions as a vibration data source for MQTT-based monitoring, analytics, and industrial data platforms.

Features

• Vibration monitoring SaaS

• AI-powered condition monitoring

• Digital twins and model training

• IIoT architectures

• Cloud-based data storage

• The VDS130 converts high-resolution analog IEPE sensor signals with wide-bandwidth and low-noise capabilities into MQTT data streams — without sacrificing signal quality

Why the VDS130?

• 4 IEPE input channels – consolidate multiple vibration points in a single device with option for time-synchronization using tachometer (RPM) input

• MQTT output – seamless integration with cloud and edge platforms

• Preserves analog signal resolution – vibration spectrum and FFT data up to 40 kHz, no compromise on data quality

• Trending with calculated vibration metrics – multiple bandwidths including ISO-defined frequency ranges for acceleration, velocity, and displacement plus true peak, crest factor, and standard deviation

• Broad sensor compatibility – supports high-frequency, low-frequency, harsh-environment, and hazardous-location accelerometers

• Ideal for retrofits and new installations – leverage existing IEPE sensors across a wide variety of digital systems

Whether you’re upgrading legacy vibration monitoring or deploying a new digital architecture, the VDS130 seamlessly bridges trusted IEPE sensors with MQTT-based platforms.

Selecting the Right Hansford Sensors for Vibration Monitoring

The integrity of your Predictive Maintenance program hinges on one critical decision: Selecting the Right Hansford Sensors for Vibration Monitoring

A machine's vibration is its language, and the sensor is your interpreter. Before deployment, our experts recommend asking these four fundamental questions:

✅ Frequency Range: What is the critical frequency range you need to monitor for potential faults?

✅ Temperature: What is the expected minimum and maximum operating temperature of the asset?

✅ Output Type: Do you require an AC signal for detailed analysis or a simpler 4-20mA output for PLC/DCS integration?

✅ Environment: Is the operating environment hazardous (e.g., ATEX/IECEx zones) or highly corrosive?

Choosing the right fit ensures you detect issues early, plan maintenance effectively, and extend asset life.
