Static vibration sensor
SKF Machine Condition Indicator
SKF Machine Condition Indicator CMSS 200The SKF Machine Condition Indicator is an economical vibration sensor and indicator for monitoring non-critical machinery. It is ideal for machines with constant operating conditions that have not previously been monitored in a plant. The device can be compared to a car's “check engine” light. What the “check engine” light does for a car, the SKF Machine Condition Indicator does for industrial machinery. Internal sensors measure velocity, enveloped acceleration (bearing or gear vibration) and machine surface temperature.
The included magnetic read key is used to activate the SKF Machine Condition Indicator, change operating modes, set vibration baselines and acknowledge alarms.
Three LEDs on the unit indicate machine and bearing condition. When an indicator lights up, it alerts maintenance personnel to perform a root cause analysis on the machine. In addition, the unit includes a barcode with a serial number for machine identification and easy integration into an ODR (Operator Driven Reliability) programme, maintenance routes or routine inspections.
