Specifying a Vibration Sensor

Within the power industry it is important for machinery to run 24/7, to keep power plants operational and avoid unexpected shutdown. Reliability engineers use techniques such as predictive and preventative maintenance using vibration monitoring to provide early warnings of machine failure.

We provide a full range of vibration monitoring equipment to help you monitor and maintain a wide range of machinery used in the power industry, including compressors, cooling towers, fans and pumps.

Typical solutions include:

Factors to consider

Selecting the best accelerometer or vibration sensor for power industry applications depends on a number of factors. These include:

  • Availability of the plant
  • Cost of breakdown
  • Criticality of the machine/impact on the production process
  • Access to machine, guarding, health and safety implications
  • Environmental factors

We can provide solutions for both online and offline monitoring, with all our industrial accelerometers being designed for use in the toughest environments, including hazardous areas.
