Mount Sensor And Harvester - Fluke 3562 Getting Started Manual

Getting started with Screening Vibration Sensor System

Mount sensor and harvester

1. Position the sensor on the desired location on the asset to be monitored. Select
a location where the sensor cannot fall over. The magnetic base of the sensor
allows easy attachment to magnetic surfaces.
NOTE: Sensors are mounted on the bearing housing. Mount the sensors on the
top or at the side or at the end of the bearing casing.
Use the next images as a guide to sensor orientation on the asset.

2. Position the TEG harvester on a location where heat is present. The base of the
harvester is magnetic and has additional feet and tabs to fasten the harvester
at the heat source. The fins of the harvester must be in the direction of airflow
across the asset so as to maximize heat dissipation. A temperature differential
between the source of heat and the ambient temperature must be at least 8°C (or
15°F).
NOTE: Both the sensor and the harvester may be epoxied to the contact surfaces.
Do not epoxy the components before data is seen in LIVE-Asset™ Portal.
3. If necessary, augment the power to the sensor using the optional PV harvester
which has a magnetic base and a USB-C interface. The closer the PV harvester to
a light source, the better the performance. If required, epoxy the PV harvester to
the attachment surface after data is seen.
