Easy to Install
Model 682B05 Bearing Fault Detector (BFD) is an advanced vibration signal
conditioner designed to provide the earliest warning of imminent machinery failure.
The unit works with a 100 mV/g ICP® accelerometer and serves to deliver two, 4
to 20 mA output signals that are proportional to the measured vibration levels of
operating rotating machinery. In order to enable detection of a wide variety of
machinery faults, the 4 to 20 mA signals are conditioned to characterize two, unique
vibration measurements; one containing high frequency peak data and the other
containing low frequency rms data. These 4 to 20 mA signals may be monitored,
alongside other plant process variables, using familiar PLC, DCS, SCADA, alarm,
and control systems. An additional analog voltage output signal is provided for
spectral analysis of the monitored vibration for fault diagnostic purposes.
The unit employs a patented signal conditioning technique that provides the unique
ability to detect bearing and gear problems at their earliest stages, thus permitting
ample maintenance planning to avert a catastrophic failure. The simplified 4 to 20
mA signal monitoring approach represents a cost effective alternative to complex
vibration monitoring instrumentation and associated training.
