PCH 1232 Vibration Guard (Modbus RTU)

Vibration Sensor offering full integration with Modbus RTU in a distributed RS 485 network.

Description

The PCH 1232 vibration sensor offers full integration with Modbus RTU in a distributed RS 485 network.

For new automation projects or upgrades the integration by Modbus RTU is easily done and delivers much more vibration measurement data, than the classical 4-20 mA outputs can provide. Using several narrow filter bands will enhance the vibration monitoring for condition monitoring purposes as lower vibration amplitudes easier can be followed more thoroughly.

Up to 4 configurable filter bands monitor various critical machine components on your rotating equipment. Alarm levels and filter ranges are user configurable by the included PCH Vibration Studio.

PCH 1232 Vibration Guard features:

  • Measuring parameter: velocity mm/s or acceleration m/s², RMS or Peak
  • Frequency ranges: 10 to 1000 Hz or selectable HP/LP filters for narrow bands
  • Up to 4 configurable filter bands with scalar values
  • 2 alarm levels with individual delay times per filter band
  • 2 analog DC outputs 4-20 mA and 2 alarm relays
  • RS-485 and Modbus RTU communication
  • Setup by PCH user software PCH Vibration Studio through USB or RS-485
  • Self-test function can be activated externally
