  • Page 21: About The Excieo

    About the Excieo The Excieo has it all for either Health & Safety or Machine Monitoring with a rugged construction, large clear display, easy operation, long battery life, large data storage, over twenty simultaneous measured parameters and a large dynamic range. Available in three variations to match your requirements: - HARM (H) SINGLE Axis (S)

  • Page 22: Chapter 2

    Chapter 2 Accelerometer Types, Removal and Fitting Accelerometer types for use with the Excieo produce a Voltage Output proportional to the signal being measured. Below is a table which shows the output voltages and specifications of the Hand Arm Tri-Axial Accelerometer (KD1006), the Whole Body Tri-Axial Accelerometer (KD1007 &...

  • Page 23: Figure 1 - Accelerometer Types

    Figure 1 – Accelerometer Types The Excieo vibration meter can be used with two seat pad transducers for Whole Body Vibration, both of which are available from Castle Group Ltd. See page 80 for details to ensure your instrument has been setup correctly.

  • Page 24: Attaching & Removing Accelerometers

    Attaching & Removing Accelerometers On the accelerometer cable locate the orientation key, and on the instrument locate the RED keying identification mark. Position the accelerometer cable so that the orientation key is in line with the RED mark and then gently push the accelerometer cable into the instruments socket.

  • Page 27: Vibration Direction

    Vibration Direction Hand Arm Vibration For Hand Arm vibration, the three axes being measured can be measured in any orientation; however it is recommended that the suggested axes indicated in the figure below are used. If this is not possible, then choosing other axes orientation is permissible and will not affect your measured data.

  • Page 28: Whole Body Vibration

    Whole Body Vibration Axes orientation defined for Whole Body Vibration varies depending on the positioning of the person operating the vibration source. These are defined below: - X – Direction Vibration from the back to the chest of the operator. Y –...

  • Page 30: Vibration Level

    Vibration Level In some environments, high levels of vibration may occur. The Excieo meter has therefore been designed with 4 ranges for all of the following modes of operation: - Hand Arm Vibration (HARM) Whole Body Vibration (WBV) Single Axis Vibration (SINGLE) Custom Mode Vibration (CUSTOM) Before you record measurements take the time to ensure you have selected the optimum range for the process being recorded and if using Single Axis or...

  • Page 31: Frequency Weighting Filters

    Frequency Weighting Filters The human body’s discomfort level to vibration alters depending on the vibration frequency and where the vibration is in contact with the body. Your Excieo meter therefore has the following frequency weighting filters which are applied to the measured vibration signal using a fast, low powered digital signal processor for superior accuracy: - Hand Arm Vibration Filter...
  • Page 32 The weightings specifically used for human vibration allow for the directional effects of vibration on people and compensate the vibration level to match the human discomfort throughout the frequency range of the weighting applied. As an example, study the gain response of the Wh filter and notice that it has a gain of -0.43dB at 10Hz whereas at 100Hz the gain is -15.91dB.

  • Page 33: Under Range & Overload Conditions

    Under Range & Overload Conditions Under Range Condition An under range condition occurs when the vibration level is equal to, or lower than the bottom of the current range the meter is set to. If this condition occurs then the Under Range indicator will be displayed on your instrument. In such circumstances it is highly recommended to change to a lower range with a higher sensitivity as your meter will be out of specification.

  • Page 34: Measuring Ranges

    Measuring Ranges Each display mode on the Excieo meter has four ranges available (excluding KD1009 Seatpad option which has only one range when the sensitivity is set at 1000mV). Switching between ranges on any mode is achieved by pressing Soft Key 2 labelled RANGE.

  • Page 35: Chapter 4

    Chapter 4 Getting Started At power on, a nominal delay of 20 seconds exists before valid measurements are being displayed. The meter highlights the selected range for 20 seconds, when this highlight is removed the measurements are valid. Your Castle Excieo meter has two running states of operation:- ...

  • Page 38: Powering Your Excieo Meter

    Powering Your Excieo Meter Your Excieo meter can be powered from either six AA batteries or an optional Castle 12V DC Power Supply which can be purchased separately if required (PSU3:PRO-DX). The battery compartment is located on the rear of your instrument and its cover can easily be removed and fastened by the use of your thumb or a coin if required.

  • Page 39: Switching Your Excieo Meter On/Off

    Switching Your Excieo Meter On/Off To turn on your instrument press and hold the Power On/Off key approximately one second. Your instrument will display the boot up screen with an initialisation progress bar at the bottom of the screen. When initialisation is complete, your meter will be ready for operation in Real Time mode with the previously used settings.

  • Page 40: Chapter 5

    Chapter 5 Real Time Operation Real Time operation is extremely useful for pre-check range Overload / Under range condiditons and can be identified by having a Duration value that does not flash and is set to the value 00:00:00. Display Modes Depending on the variation of meter purchased, the following display modes are available: - HARM (H)

  • Page 43: Changing The Measuring Range

    Changing the Measuring Range Each display mode on the Excieo meter has four ranges available. Switching between the four ranges is achieved by pressing Soft Key 2 labelled RANGE. The nominal delay time between changing a range and valid measurements being displayed is 20 seconds, the displayed range is therefore highlighted for approximately 20 seconds when the range is changed.

    Manual Calibration Manual Calibration is selected when you wish to manually enter individual axis coefficients using the numeric keypad on your instrument. These figures are located on your instruments calibration certificate. No vibration calibrator is required for Manual Calibration. Choosing option 2 from the Calibration Selection Screen will display the MANUAL CAL screen shown below.
  • Page 97 Press either 1, 2 or 3 to enter the axis coefficients for the X, Y or Z axis respectively or just 1 for SINGLE axis mode. The axis coefficients are multiplying factors applied to the instrument to compensate the output of the specific transducer being used.

  • Page 98: Crest Factor Check

    Crest Factor Check The crest factor check is a whole body vibration pre-check that can be carried out to verify if Vibration Dose Values are required with the recording. To ensure accuracy always ensure that the operation being monitored is currently being undertaken before the crest factor check is started.
