High precision vibration measurement

Delphin Technology has introduced the Expert Vibro, a compact measurement device for the acquisition of transient signals and vibrations. The Expert Vibro is equipped with 16 synchronous analogue inputs with sampling rates of up to 50kHz per channel.

A 24-bit A/D converter is said to deliver high-precision measurement. Users are claimed to be able to switch the analogue inputs between voltage, IEPE and shaft vibration measurement. Integrated comparators and digital inputs enable flexible triggering.

The Expert Vibro can be connected to PCs via LAN or USB. Optional WLAN, UMTS or LTE modules are available for standalone operation. Antennae can be connected via SMA sockets. Two PROFIBUS interfaces are available as well as Modbus TCP for fieldbus connections. Multiple Expert Vibro devices can be synchronised to process vibration data from many channels.

Characteristic values can be determined from time signals and spectra. Spectra are computed online (FFT) and recorded along with time signals and characteristic values. Expert Vibro has a built-in data storage capability to enable independent operation. Versatile software channels enable Expert Vibro to be used for complex analysis and monitoring tasks.
