    A built-in display makes it easy to view vibration levels, warnings, and the status of these switches. Use the push-buttons to set and adjust activation points for vibration as well as a start delay to avoid false triggering from start-up vibration. Memory storage captures readings at regular intervals, which lets you analyze your process. These switches have a 5-pole M12 plug that connects to cables with a socket (sold separately), so you can quickly connect and disconnect them. Switches meet American, Canadian, and European safety standards.
    IP67 Enclosure Rating—They are IP67 rated for protection from dust and brief submersion.
    ISO 10816—They also meet ISO standards for vibration monitoring.

    Get NEMA 4 and IP66 protection from dirt and water. These switches are rated for hazardous locations for Class I, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups C and D; and Class II, Divisions 1 and 2, Groups E, F, and G. If vibration or shock exceeds a set activation point, the contacts actuate to either shut down your machine or activate an alarm. Reset the switch with the push of a button. The activation point is adjustable between 0 to 5 gravity units (g) at 0 to 60 Hz.

    Gauge your machine’s health with more precision than vibration monitors. These sensors measure acceleration, vibration, and frequency. Mount them to motors, fans, and gearboxes. Made entirely of stainless steel, they stand up to prolonged exposure to water and mild chemicals. These sensors use the IEPE communication protocol, so you can connect them to a vibration controller or edge device.
    All of these sensors are IP67 rated to block out dust and water if briefly submerged.
    Three-Axis Accelerometer—Three-axis sensors pick up motion in three directions—up and down, side to side, and back and forth—for a more comprehensive assessment than single-axis sensors.
    IP68 Enclosure Rating and IP69K Enclosure Rating—IP68 and IP69K rated sensors also stand up to spraying water during high-pressure washdowns.
