VIBCODE
VIBCODE is a vibration measurement system that uses coded
measurement points for certain identification of measurement
locations on the machine. The system consists of the VIBCODE
sensor and the VIBCODE measurement location.
Note also the respective installation and operating manuals:
VIBCODE, order no.: VIB 9.834.G
Note
Mechanical coding
VIBCODE sensor
The sensor head contains a piezoelectric accelerometer that
measures the vibration signals via the measuring pin. Several
pressure-sensitive sensors are arranged as a ring around the
vibration sensor. When coupled to a measuring pin, these sensors
detect the pattern in the plastic ring in the measuring pin. This
coding identifies the measurement location to the connected
evaluation device and determines which measurement tasks are to
be performed on it.
VIBCODE measurement location
The measuring pin contains a plastic code ring that obtains a
unique identity - similar to a fingerprint - through the removal of
individual teeth.
