3. Intended Use
The vibration meter is used for mechanical measurement of machines and systems for maintenance and installation.
It permits conclusions to the system condition such as concentric running, alignment errors or wobbly or loose parts
in the vibration frequency range from 10 Hz to 10 kHz.
The vibration sensor is offset from the meter and can be additionally attached to ferromagnetic metal housings with
a magnet. A data logger for recording measuring series is integrated. A USB interface permits further processing of
the measured data.
With average peak and max display and data hold function
The following measurements are available:
• Acceleration: 0.1 – 199 m/s² (peak value)
• Vibration strength: 0.01 – 19.99 cm/s
• Vibration offset: 0.001 – 1.999 mm (peak-peak value)
Operation requires a 9V block battery (type 1604A or same build). Measurement under unfavourable ambient condi-
tions is not permitted.
Unfavourable ambient conditions are:
• Wetness or high air humidity
•
Dust and flammable gases, vapours or solvents
• Hot light sources
