The VNB001 vibration sensor from
ifm electronic is designed for
continuous online monitoring of
machine condition. It measures
and displays the average
vibration velocity (mm/s or in/s).

Overall vibration velocity can
be measured as peak-to-peak
value (highest speed achieved or rms
value (root mean square) amount of
vibration energy, usually between 50
and 80% of peak amplitudes: the
VNB001 offers both, with the default
setting as rms. The measuring range
in (mm/s) of the VNB001 can be set
to a maximum 500 and measurement
values v peak or v rms are
in the ranges 2 to 1000Hz
(0 to 500mm/s) or 10 to
1000Hz (0 to 50mm/s),
making the VNB suitable
for machines with speeds
from 120 to 600 rpm.
