Mount these sensors to robot arms, cranes, and vehicles to accurately track their movements. Also known as movement monitoring sensors for vehicles and machines, they hold sensors for attitude, angular velocity (rotation speed), and acceleration in a housing about the size of a hockey puck. As your machine moves, these sensors send data to vehicle systems and computers in real time using SAE-J1939 protocols. They can trigger on-board safety systems, which alert operators to dangerous conditions, adjust a vehicle’s path to avoid accidents, and keep machines working in safe zones. Use these sensors right out of the box with the standard settings or customize them for specific applications with the included software. They’re rated IP67 and IP69K to hold up to dirty, dusty environments and washdowns with hot, high-pressure water.

These monitors are constructed entirely of stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance and are IP68 and IP69K rated for protection from temporary submersion and high-pressure washdowns. Connect to your data collector or programmable logic controller to monitor vibration. The 4-pole micro M12 plug connects to the included cable and socket to quickly connect and disconnect it.

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.

Keep machinery running smoothly by monitoring its health and status from your computer. Often used with electric motors, pumps, and lathes, these kits measure changes in vibration and temperature—identifying equipment problems and potential failures before they occur. Plug in the sensor, set your thresholds, and view data directly on your screen. You’ll also receive email notifications when vibrations move beyond your specified range, making them good for preventative maintenance. These sensors are 20 times faster than our other vibration monitors, and they don’t require devices such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to operate.

Sensors mount directly to your equipment. Use the magnetic base for quick installation, or use the threaded hole for a more permanent setup. Once the sensor is hooked up, you can either wire it directly to the receiver or connect it to the wireless transmitter to view data remotely.

Two easy-to-set dials allow you to adjust a set activation point for vibration as well as a time delay to avoid false triggering from start-up vibration. An LED alarm signals if the set activation point is exceeded. Plug the included cable into your data collector or programmable logic controller.

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.

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.
