3 TPI 9085 User Guide V1.0
1 OVERVIEW
The
Vib Meter 9085
is a simple to use vibration monitoring and analysis tool that allows
easy display of vibration signals. The meter automatically performs vibration analysis
functions based on machine running speed to help diagnose faults such as unbalance,
misalignment and looseness, as well as indicating the degree of bearing wear.
The Vib Meter 9085 unit is designed to enable a user to collect vibration and
temperature measurements from assets (e.g. pumps, motors, fans and bearings). The
unit displays vibration frequency plots and allows vibration severity and bearing
condition to be monitored, analysed and trended with the included VibTrend PC
analysis software.
1.1 Special Requirement for Temperature Measurements
To measure temperature with the 9085 the accelerometer with built in temperature
sensor (p/n A9101) must be used. This is a low power accelerometer with temperature
sensor and built-in magnet. Using the standard low power accelerometer (p/n A9100)
will allow the 9085 to measure vibration but not temperature.
1.2 Turning the unit ON and OFF
Turning the meter ON is achieved simply by pressing the center
or
button.
The
unit has an auto dimming feature that dims the display after 10 seconds to conserve
battery life. Pressing any button will bring the unit back to full brightness. In addition, the
9085 will automatically turn OFF if not used for 1 minute (this time period can be
increased up to 60 minutes using the Setup Wizard).
