Smart Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor

Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Sensor

We are introducing NCD’s Long Range Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor and boasting up to a 2-mile range using a wireless mesh networking architecture. Incorporating a 16-bit Vibration and Temperature sensor, this sensor transmits highly accurate vibration data at user-defined intervals. This all-in-one vibration sensor can send computed results thanks to inbuilt FFT and RAW data for further processing on the user end.

The Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor V3 is packed with features like Acceleration calculation, Velocity Calculation, and Time Domain Data Analysis For FFT. User configurable Data aggregation intervals range from 1 second to 10 seconds.

The Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor V3 samples 2048 of each Axis and then calculates RMS and maximum vibration readings. This sensor combines the information with temperature data in a packet and transmits the result to modems and gateways within wireless range.  Once the transmission is complete, the vibration sensors returns to sleep – thus minimizing power consumption.

Powered by Two AA batteries with a ten-year battery life can be expected depending on environmental conditions and the data transmission interval.

With an open communication protocol, the Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor V3 transmits hardware encrypted data that can be integrated with just about any control system or gateway.  Data can be sent simultaneously to a PC, a Raspberry Pi, to Losant IoT cloud, Microsoft® Azure® IoT, and an embedded system. Our free node-red monitoring software can change sensor parameters and wireless transmission settings.

The long-range, price, accuracy, battery life, and security features of the Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor V3 make it an affordable choice that exceeds the requirements for most industrial and consumer market applications.

NOTE — RMS is calculated using Parseval’s theorem. 

General Vibration Guidelines

Here are some recommended vibration standards; you can compare these readings with our Long Range IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor to determine if your device is operating correctly or if it may require service (note that actual equipment and application may vary):
A. 0.01g or Less & 0.5mm/sec or Less   — Excellent condition, No action required
B. 0.35g or less  & 0.8mm/sec or Less  — Good Condition, No action required unless the machine is noisy or running at an abnormal temperature
C. 0.5g or less & 2.0mm/sec or Less  — Fair Condition, No action required unless the machine is noisy or running at an abnormal temperature
D. 0.75g or More & 5mm/sec or Less — Rough Condition, possible action required if the machine is noisy and also check the bearing temperature
E. 1g or More  & 7.5mm/sec or Less — Very Rough Conditions, further analysis and see if it’s doing this continuously. Also, check for noise and temperature
F. 1.5g or More & 12.0mm/sec or Less  — Danger Level, there is a problem with the machine or installation. Also, check the temperature Log
G. 2.5g or More & 18mm/sec or Less — Shut down the Machine immediately and look for possible causes. Call a technician for immediate repair
For Heavy Machinery, these readings could be 1.5 times to 2 times more than those listed above.

ISO 20816-1:2016

1X — Normal ( if the peak is at one time of motor running frequency)
1X — if increase over time — unbalance
1X,2X,3X — 2X max — Misalignment
1X,2X,3X,4X,5X — Looseness
3X,6X,9X,12X — Bearing
1X — period will increase — resonance

Change in velocity — unbalance, misalignment or looseness
Change in Acceleration — indicates issues with  bearing

Transmission Interval

This device sends data periodically, based on user-preset timing intervals and on INT.

Industrial IoT Wireless Vibration Temperature Sensor V3 vs. Long Range IoT Vibration Monitor

We realize that the Industrial Wireless version and the Long Range IoT version seem very similar and are. The Industrial Wireless line has a few improvements over its counterpart in the Long Range Wireless line in terms of form and fits but maintains the same function.  Industrial Wireless versions may have a longer battery life, optional off-board sensors, more accurate readings, and other frequency ranges.
