Installation
Vibration and Temperature sensor mounting options:
There are two options available for mounting vibration and temperature sensors to the pump.
Choose the option that best suits your needs:
A. Directly to the pump via a drilled and tapped hole
– typically used for bearing
assembly locations and ductile iron parts, intended to be created at time of
manufacture for all products where possible
B. Via an adhesively bonded mounting pad (fig 5.6 below). To be used when it is not
possible to drill and tap.
It is also possible to change the orientation of a single axis sensor by placing a placing a tri-
block mounting accessory in between the pump and the sensor. This is exclusively used for
single axis sensor VT-10 as described in section x.x below.
