1. Overview
The HS-620 Vibration Meter Kit is a reliable and easy to use hand-held machine condition
inspection instrument. It provides vibration measurement, alarm indication and a bearing
status check facility. The HS-630 kit provides an additional facility for non-contact
temperature measurement. The meter enables plant maintenance technicians to monitor
their machines, find potential problems in advance of failure, and to ensure machine
reliability.

1.2 Overall Vibration Mode
The meter can measure vibration Velocity in mm/s rms, Acceleration in g peak, and
Displacement in !m peak to peak. When measuring Velocity, and on switching to the
'Hold' mode, the meter display will indicate an alarm status according to ISO10816-3.
1.3 Bearing Status Mode
The meter measures Bg value in g rms and Bv value in mm/s rms which represent the
bearing status. The lower frequency machine vibrations are attenuated by a 1kHz high
pass filter. In the 'Hold' mode, the meter display indicates the bearing alarm status.
1.4 Measurement Units
The meters are available in three different configurations for measurement units. These
are: Metric 1, Metric 2 and Imperial. The units required must be specified on order – see
table on page 5 for units used in each mode. Metric 1 settings are used throughout the
manual.
