1.2 Overview
The manual
This User Guide applies to the AMS Wireless Vibration Monitor, a triaxial vibration
measurement device designed for use on a WirelessHART network.
Use this manual to install, operate, and maintain the device.
The monitor
The AMS Wireless Vibration Monitor is an installation-ready solution that monitors
vibration and temperature in rotating equipment in hard-to-reach locations.
The AMS Wireless Vibration Monitor also provides a variety of monitor and sensor
configurations. It has built-in radio and four integral sensors:
• X and Y MEMS
• Z MEMS High Sensitivity, High Bandwidth (Vibration & PeakVue)
• Temperature sensor
The Z accelerometer has the highest bandwidth and is considered the primary sensor. The
temperature sensor is designed to measure the temperature near the mounting point
(i.e., the machine's skin temperature).
Other features include:
• Support for up to 13 device variables with up to three user-configurable alerts for each
process variable. Any device variable can be configured as any process variable (PV, SV,
TV, QV).
• Support for storage of Waveform/Spectrum directly in AMS Machine Works
• Wireless output with >99% data reliability, delivering rich HART data, protected by
industry leading security (when operated as part of a well-formed network)
The device uses an off-the-shelf battery contained in the device which is easily removable
for device installation and replacement.
