Combining accelerometer and 4–20 mA transmitter in single housing, Bearing Fault Detector PLUS Model 649A03 provides 5 specialized outputs that, when used with control system, deliver early warning of bearing defects such as cracked races, brinelling, looseness, and spalling. Scaled output can be used to both trend data and trigger vibration alarms in PLC or DCS to closely monitor when machinery should be shut down and bearing should be replaced.
