How To Identify A Good Vibration Sensor

🔍 How Do You Know a Good Vibration Sensor? 🔍

Choosing the right vibration sensor can make all the difference in your machinery maintenance and overall operational efficiency.

But with so many options out there, how do you know which one is the best for your needs?

Here are key factors to consider:

🌟Key Qualities of a Good Vibration Sensor :-

• High Sensitivity: Accurately detects even the smallest vibrations for early fault detection.

• Wide Frequency Range: Covers a broad spectrum to capture various types of vibrations.

• Durability: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments and continue performing under tough conditions.

• Ease of Integration: Compatible with your existing systems, making setup simple and hassle-free.

• Reliable Data Output: Consistently provides clear, accurate data that you can trust for analysis and decision-making.

• Low Noise Levels: Minimizes background noise to ensure the data you’re collecting is precise.

🎯 Why It Matters - A good vibration sensor helps you predict issues before they happen, reduce downtime, and save on maintenance costs. It’s an investment in reliability and efficiency!

Wilcoxon 731A for Accurate Seismic Vibration

How do you know the location where you want to place your sensitive machine is suitable? Well, you check the floor vibration, of course.

However, did you know that the use of different vibration sensors will give you different conclusions?

We have come across different service vendors using various type of vibration sensors to do the measurement. Vendors who offer floor vibration measurement service can use different sensors such as a geophone, a low frequency accelerometer or a seismic, ultra low frequency accelerometer.

Knowledgeable customers who require accurate data will request that a seismic, ultra low frequency accelerometer such as the Wilcoxon 731A be used. The 731A or the 731A/P31 package is the preferred choice of vendors who are in the business of selling anti-vibration isolators.

This is because these vendors require accurate data in order to work out which is the proper anti-vibration isolator they should be proposing to an end-user. If the wrong isolator is installed the solution would not pass the commissioning stage resulting in losses to the vendor when they are required to replace the isolators.

If the unsuitable isolator is not caught at the commissioning stage, then the next time the problem of high vibration comes up would be some time down the line when production is running. An incidence of high vibration then would result in disruption to the production schedule and other costly delays.

The Wilcoxon 731A/P31 combines a supersensitive piezoelectric accelerometer, an ultra-low-noise amplifier, and excellent electrical/mechanical isolation, resulting in unmatched performance in measuring low-level vibration. Wilcoxon's 731A and 731A/P31 seismic sensors are characterized by excellent low-frequency response, high output sensitivity, and a low noise floor.

The ultra-quiet 731A seismic accelerometer can measure vibration levels down to the sub-micro-g range using an ultra-low noise internal amplifier and a high-sensitivity inertial sensing element. The noise floor of the 731A is very near the New High Noise Model (NHNM) developed by the U.S. Department of Interior. Accelerometers for earth seismic monitoring should have a very low noise floor.
