2.2 Information for the installation personnel
Qualification
Installation and disassembly may be performed only by a qualified
electrician. The installation personnel must read and act in accor-
dance with the installation manual.
Personal protective equipment
The following are required during installation and disassembly of the
system: safety helmet, safety gloves, safety goggles.
No personal protective equipment is required for normal operation of
the system.
Rules for normal operation
The operating state of the system is displayed by the SYSTEM LED on
the rear side of the basic unit. In normal operation it lights up green
(ready) or red (measuring). If the power supply is interrupted it is off.
Regularly check for the following:
-
Is there visible damage to the system components?
-
Are the cables pinched or damaged?
Defects must be repaired or reported to the operator without delay.
Operate the system only if it is in proper working order!
In case of malfunctions, disconnect the system from the power supply
and secure it against restarting.
If the system is shut down, this will not affect the operation of
a machine. Therefore, the machine can continue operating during
a shut-down.
2.3 Intended use
VIBRONET Signalmaster is a stationary CMS for monitoring the con-
dition of anti-friction bearing machines based on the following char-
acteristic values:
-
Absolute component vibration
-
Rotational speed and temperature
-
Shock pulse overall value (bearing condition and cavitation)
-
Process parameters as current/voltage value
The CMS is ideally suited for the following applications:
-
Monitoring of distant assets
-
Standard machinery (e.g. fans, pumps, ...)
-
Assets located in hazardous areas
The system may only be operated within the specifications stated in
this manual. Only the original VIBRONET components, sensors and
cables listed in this manual and in the latest product catalog may be
used for installation. Constructional changes to the components are
not permitted. Intrinsic safety requirements must be observed.
