Avoid Catastrophic Failure
Protect your rotating or reciprocating
machinery, including pumps, motors, fans,
blowers, gear boxes, compressors, turbines
and other machinery from excessive vibration.
Vibration monitoring will alert you of
increasing machine vibration levels so
preventative maintenance can be scheduled
before catastrophic failures occur.
General Description
Robertshaw’s model 571A is a loop powered
(14 – 30 VDC) vibration transmitter that
provides a 4-20 mADC output proportionate
to vibration. The transmitter is available with
a variety of acceleration and velocity ranges.
This rugged (316L Stainless Steel, NEMA 4X,
IP68) compact unit provides continuous
monitoring of machine vibration for trending,
alarm and/or shutdown when used with a
PLC, computer, DCS, data logger or current
relays. When used with an approved barrier
the transmitter is intrinsically safe for use in
hazardous locations. Without a barrier the
transmitter is rated non-incendive.
Installation is simple and no calibration is
required. A 1/4-28 stud is provided for
mounting in a 1/4-28 tapped hole. The unit
has a 2 pin connector and mates with a
standard MIL-C-5015 2 socket connector with
splash-proof boot for a weatherproof, splash-
proof connection. Optional cable assemblies
are available in lengths of 16, 32, 64 and 112
feet.
