Top-Quality Vibration Monitors

Vibration monitors provide technicians with local display, alarm and shutdown capability, and using Datawatch, one can have data recording functionality. Metrix’s monitors have the ability to communicate effectively using a 4-20 mA output and, with Datawatch, Modbus over Ethernet TCP/IP. If you need to trend waveform and transient data to provide a predictive look at your machine’s condition, Metrix can provide the sensor solution that can meet your machinery monitoring requirements.

At Metrix, you’ll find an array of equipment monitors, all of which generate accurate and reliable data. The key to choosing the right one for you, whether you operate in energy, wastewater treatment, manufacturing, or in oil and gas process industries, is finding the right monitoring equipment for your application.

What Are the Benefits of High-Precision Vibration Monitors?
Metrix’s vibration monitors are designed to add value to a company's bottom line. Each product can save a company time, money, and frustration when implemented correctly. When you choose our equipment, you can expect the following benefits:

● Reduce false alarms: Reliable monitoring equipment is remarkably accurate at determining machinery vibration and providing early warning to prevent breakdown. So, if you're tired of having to turn off vibration equipment when a machine starts up (because the initial vibrations trigger the alarm), you can configure the settings so that's not an issue anymore.
● Predictive maintenance: Monitoring equipment helps technicians schedule maintenance based on the rhythms and patterns of each machine. This benefit can rule out the possibility of over- or under-servicing your machinery.
● Increased production: Not only can monitoring equipment extend the machine’s lifespan, but it can also lead to optimized performance of the site’s equipment (and your productivity numbers).
● Reduced risk: From employee safety to unplanned downtime, companies can drastically reduce liability by continuously monitoring the vibration of their machines.
● Energy-efficiency: An optimized machine will run smoothly and use less energy. Energy-efficiency not only lowers a company’s utility bills, but it can help a company stay within their industry’s compliance regulations.

Metrix’s Vibration Monitoring Systems
The vibration sensing devices from Metrix are versatile enough to fit the needs of different industries. The displays are easy to read and accurate. In addition, they’re flexible enough to adapt to different applications. For instance, using the SW55580, one can measure two vibration points, or you can put three units together to obtain six data points. Using the Datawatch, you can monitor up to eight data points. If you need to measure up to 16 vibration points, then you just need to add another Datawatch. If you need to add channels, you can stack the devices together to fit the needs of your equipment. Each monitor and switch have undergone lengthy iterations to provide more access and functionality across industries.

AM3030 Single Channel Alarm Monitor
The AM3030 Single Channel Alarm Monitor has a bar graph display in three colors. It features up to four programmable trip points, conveniently boxed up in a ⅛ DIN package. Technicians and engineers can quickly determine the excitation levels sent from vibration transmitters in a simple, easy-to-read device. The AM3030 accepts 4-20 mA current inputs and is configured by the 5 front panel keys. It's available in both analog and serial retransmission.
