Condition Monitoring Systems

ifm condition monitoring detects machine damage early so maintenance can be planned rather than reactive. The VVB001 vibration sensor monitors unbalance, rolling-element bearings and gear condition, records characteristic values and raw data, and communicates over IO-Link. The VNB001 vibration transmitter has pre-alarm and main alarm outputs, an analogue output for vibration velocity and a history memory with real-time clock.

For multi-point diagnosis, VSA accelerometers connect to VSE diagnostic electronics such as the VSE100, which evaluates several vibration sensors on the machine. Oil condition is monitored with particle monitors and humidity sensors such as the LDH100, which gives analogue outputs for relative moisture and temperature.
