Correct positioning requires the sensor to be set very close to the vibration sources to enable
detection and the measurement point shall be chosen according to the type of analysed vibration.
Sections [1] and [2] provide indications on the sensor positioning for machine monitoring.
Before measurement the user shall make sure the sensor is well secured, otherwise measures might
be altered by vibrations. The acquisition device is equipped with magnetic adapters, an excellent
solution for the sensor fastening; you can also consider using cyanoacrylate glues (e.g. Loctite).
Tight fastening is extremely important, therefore the best solution is to fix the sensor by means of
coach screws.
