Vibration Meters
In addition to vibration, these meters measure acceleration, frequency, velocity, and displacement. Use them to gauge the health of your machine.
Import regulations restrict sales to the listed areas.

Digital Pocket Vibration Meters
Keep these meters on hand to quickly check the health of your machine and bearings. They digitally measure acceleration, frequency, and velocity to help you identify potential problems, such as bearings that are off balance or misaligned. These meters have two different bases for taking readings. The magnetic base is useful for hands-free readings on magnetic surfaces. For nonmagnetic surfaces, use the pin tip and gently hold the meter against the vibrating surface. Rated IP65, these meters will continue to measure in dusty and damp workspaces.
| Measures | Acceleration Range, g | Frequency Range, Hz | Velocity Range, in./sec. | Accuracy | Probe Lg. | Batteries Included | Container Type | Environmental Rating | Includes | Each | |
| Acceleration, Frequency, Velocity | 0.5-20.39 | 10-1,000 | 0.02-7.87 | +/- 5% | 1 3/16" | Yes | Pouch | IP65 | Magnetic Base, Pin Tip | 0000000 | 0000000 |
Vibration Meters with Stethoscopes
In addition to measuring vibration, you can listen to and record machine performance. The magnetic base allows you to mount the probe on a machine for constant readings.
| Measures | Vibration Range, cpm | Acceleration Range, g | Frequency Range, Hz | Velocity Range, in./sec. | Accuracy | Temp. Range, °F | Probe Lg. | Batteries Included | Container Type | Each | |
| Vibration, Acceleration, Frequency, Velocity | 600-600,000 | 0.01-19.99 | 10-10,000 | 0.01-19.99 | ±2% | -10° to 120° | 4 1/2" | Yes | Case | 000000 | 000000000 |
Motion-Measuring Modules for Development Boards
Measure your device's acceleration, rotation, or orientation. These modules gather data over time and track movement, which can help improve performance, debug issues, and calibrate your components. Solder them onto a development board. To connect them to your device, solder on a wire or header. For a solderless connection, use a Qwiic cord (not included).
An accelerometer measures the rate at which your device is speeding up or slowing down. A gyroscope measures how fast your device is rotating. A magnetometer measures your device's orientation.
