Vibration Sensor Mounting
Select the sensor location. For dryer bearing sensors, this is usually at the bottom
quadrant of the bearing in the load zone, 90° to 120° either side of the bottom dead
center, as shown in the figure below. When selecting the sensor location, keep in mind
the easiest and most efficient cable routing and the need for future maintenance where
sensors and/or cabling may have to be moved or removed.
