Vibration Switch
Vibration switch does the function of a “watch dog”. Certain amount of vibration is allowed in all the systems / Products. Vibration beyond a limit is catastrophic. This device monitors the vibration level of a machine, system and switches off / alarm, if its vibration goes out of the set limit. This can prevent unscheduled break downs for various heavy machinery such as large motors, gear boxes, cooling tower fans, etc.
IPA make Vibration Switch consist of:
• Accelerometer with a frequency range of 10 Hz to 10 KHz giving an output proportional to acceleration.
• A level setting circuit, to set the allowable level of acceleration.
• A relay output, when the vibration exceeds the set level. This relay output can give warning or can shut the equipment under consideration.
