Secondary Device Functions (continued)

Vibration
6.13.1 Description
The device makes available two vibration values, which
provide valuable information for preventive maintenance:
–
Total speed in [mm/s], which indicates the general
machine state (lower frequency range)
–
Total acceleration in [g], which indicates the bearing
state (higher frequency range)
This secondary device function allows the measurement of
the vibration speed as a property of the physical
surroundings of a mechanical system. The primary goal is
to detect significant changes or deviations of the vibration.
The device sends messages if adjustable limit values are
exceeded.
6.13.2 Mathematics/Algorithm
The example in Tab. 6-62 shows a typical application of
vibration monitoring.
