INSTALLATION BEST PRACTICES
MOUNTING LOCATIONS
GENERAL GUIDELINES
In general the ideal place to mount the i-ALERT2 device is as close as possible to the machines bearings in a place where the
LEDs can be easily observed. Since the primary function of the i-ALERT2 device is to monitor for changes in condition, it is
not critical that the device be placed in the “load zone” of the bearing. Doing so may give a more accurate amplitude
reading, but may obscure the LEDs which are used for local status indication.
In general, a standard machine train consisting of a driver and driven piece of equipment can be monitored by 2 i-ALERT2
devices. Up to 4 monitors can be installed per machine train, one at each bearing if necessary.
