2-Channel Industrial IoT Long-Range Wireless Ultrasound Vibration Sensor
The Industrial IoT Ultrasound Vibration Sensor from NCD – a high-performance solution engineered explicitly for industry-leading predictive maintenance applications. Integrated with a wireless mesh networking architecture, it delivers an impressive range of up to 2 miles. The sensor employs a high-precision, dual-channel 16-bit ADC, capturing vibration data at user-specified intervals and wirelessly transmitting the recorded data to remote modems and gateways.
Designed with a focus on energy efficiency, the sensor seamlessly transitions into an ultra-low power sleep mode between data sampling periods. Its integrated 16V buck-boost power supply negates the requirement for an external power source, enhancing its versatility.
Powering the sensor are six AA batteries that, coupled with an operational capacity of up to 500,000 wireless transmissions, afford an estimated battery lifespan of 10 years. This lifespan depends on environmental conditions and the frequency of data transmissions. The sensor also supports optional external power from a 6-32VDC supply for added flexibility.
Its superior range, high precision, extended battery life, cost-effectiveness, and fortified security features position this sensor as an exceptional tool for predictive maintenance tasks in various industrial contexts, exceeding the standards set by traditional devices.
Ultrasound Vibration Sensor Applications
- Rotating Machinery Health Monitoring: The sensor can monitor vibrations in rotating equipment such as motor predictive maintenance, pumps, fans, or turbines. This real-time monitoring helps identify potential failures, such as bearing wear or imbalance before they escalate into costly breakdowns.
- Gearbox Monitoring: It can detect changes in the vibration patterns of gearboxes, often indicating issues such as gear wear, misalignment, or lubrication problems.
- Conveyor System Monitoring: The sensors can track the health of conveyor systems in industrial setups, predicting faults in rollers, bearings, or drive mechanisms.
- HVAC System Monitoring: They can be used in Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems to monitor and predict issues related to rotating parts like fans or compressors.
- Wind Turbine Monitoring: In wind energy setups, the sensor can predict maintenance requirements in the rotating parts of wind turbines, ensuring their optimal performance.

Not for use in outdoor applications or for use in excessive temperature conditions. Prolonged freezing will prevent batteries from functioning until thawed, using extended temperature range industrial batteries may improve the useful temperature range. Extended freezing applications should use a full-time powered solution. Prolonged exposure to extreme humidity conditions may damage this device. The sensing element is rated for use for 5 years and may be replaced. Exposure to high temperatures may cause the batteries to leak, causing permanent damage to this device. NCD Warranty does not cover battery corrosion or use in excessively smoky environments under any circumstances.
