Thank you for choosing a vibration calibrator from Monitran. 1: Purpose • Easy and simple calibration of vibration metering, recording and control equip- ment • Regular checks of such devices and installations • Fault finding 2: Properties • Handy and robust battery device for laboratory and field use •...
For light transducers, adhesive wax or double sided adhesive tape can be used for mount- ing. A flat surface for adhesive mounting can be obtained by using the M5 insulating flange Model 029 which is available from Monitran. Magnetic and adhesive attachment are only allowable for roughly estimated calibra- tions.
3.2. Calibration After attaching the device under test switch the VC20 on by depressing the “On/Off” button until the display lights up. Device information, such as hardware and software versions and the date of the last calibration, is displayed for a few seconds.
3.3. Charging the Accumulator The battery indicator is located in the upper left hand corner of the display. A full bargraph is displayed when the battery is fully charged. Even if the bargraph is empty the instrument can still be used within its specifications for a certain period of time.

4: Calibration The vibration characteristics of the VC20 are very stable even after intensive use. Typical changes are below 1 % per year. We recommend annual re-calibration. In case of shock load, dropping the instrument, etc. immediate recalibration is advised. 5: Specifications Vibration magnitude (RMS values): Vibration acceleration:...
