A compact, cost-effective machinery
protection monitor capable of
monitoring two channels of bearing
vibration, shaft vibration or shaft
position has been introduced by
Sensonics. The DN26 G3 unit is a
Din rail mountable module designed
for machine monitoring and
protection applications for any small
to medium industrial machinery
requiring protection.

The unit offers programmable
signal conditioning with a range of
measurement algorithms and sensor
modes including, absolute vibration,
relative vibration and shaft position
(or thrust bearing wear). In addition,
it offers a dedicated speed monitor
channel which can be used as a
phase reference for harmonic
analysis of the vibration signals.

It is field upgradable and can be
programmed for warning and danger
alarms and transducer integrity
monitoring. It is available with mains
or +24V power supply options,
Ethernet communications and can
be set-up via the inbuilt webserver,
or via the front panel.
