3 Safety and warning notes
A list of comprehensive notes and regulations for the safe use, handling, or maintenance of the product (e.g. transport,
assembly, production process, design, installation notes, etc.), which must be observed by the customer, OEM, end customer,
service technician, or other relevant persons or groups.
Please note that the device may be seriously damaged or sensor performance might be influenced by:
Exceeding the maximum operating conditions
The sensor must be checked by an agreed technician when exceeding these limits. In particular, the operating temperature
range defined in chapter 2.2.3 must never be exceeded, even if the product is not operating (storage etc.).
A damaged sealing
If the sealing is damaged, the device must be verified by an agreed technician and, if necessary, substituted.
In case of damaged sealing, water ingress or chemical ingress can be possible. Water ingress as well as chemical ingress
must be avoided: Water ingress or chemical ingress can damage the product, temporarily or permanently.
Deformation or visible damage of the product
Housing of sensor must not be drilled, crushed, wedged or deformed.
Painting or coating that covers the marking of the housing is prohibited.
Fixing or mounting of the IVAS Sensor module may at no time affect the safe use of the tagged asset. In particular, the follow-
ing places are not suitable for mounting the IVAS Sensor module.
Protective equipment
Ventilation shaft and louvers
Control elements
Nameplates, official license plates and lighting equipment
Service and clutch areas as well as soft grip surfaces
Areas in close proximity to flying sparks as well as areas with strong thermal or mechanical impact
The structural integrity of the object must not be impacted by the mounting of the IVAS. Screwing holes must not perforate
housings of machines for which integrity is essential (e.g. pumps, gear boxes etc.).
4 Technical description
4.1 Working principle
The device should only be operated by trained service. The device is mounted with a M6 screw and connected to the Ether-
net Bus and power supply lines, and the configuration through the SW application.
The working principle of the device is based on the measurements of mechanical vibration by using two MEMS sensors, one
for high bandwidth frequencies and reduced sensitivity, and another one for measurement of low bandwidth frequencies
and increased sensitivity.
The transfer of the vibration to the sensors will be done through the contact of the housing surface to the measured surface
according to the axis system described in the IVAS-ETH housing.
The vibration will be transferred to the sensors via mechanical contact by screwing the device to the surface.
