Vibration Analyser PCE-VT 204
- Vibration measurement: Velocity or speed, acceleration and displacement
- RPM measurement: Contact / mechanical and noncontact / optical
- Internal memory for up to 1000 readings
The Vibration Analyser PCE-VT 204 is a multifunction handheld vibration meter designed for condition monitoring. It accurately measures both rotation and vibration, making it ideal for testing and inspecting machine parts like motors, transmissions, gears, gearboxes, and wheels. This versatile device measures revolutions per minute (RPM) and three-axis vibration, including velocity, displacement, and acceleration.
You can set the vibration meter sensor flat, equip it with a magnet, or use the included fastening screw to make contact with a surface during vibration measurement. Internal frequency filters eliminate background noise, allowing the device to detect specific vibrations.
To transfer readings from the handheld device to a computer, you need the optional software package. See accessories for details.
