Portable Vibration Calibration with Certificate Generation from
PCB Piezotronics
PCB Piezotronics,
a world leader in vibration, acoustic, pressure, force and torque
sensors has announced The Modal Shop's (TMS) new 9110D Portable
Vibration Calibrator offering laboratory grade accuracy and documentation
in the form of a field tester, allowing industrial plants to
reduce perceived risk when under review for business interruption
insurance.
Capable of validating accelerometers, velocity sensors, proximity
probes and 4-20mA loop vibration sensors, the 9110D creates ISO
17025 compliant calibration certificates in Microsoft Excel®.
A printed and filed certificate - along with field confirmation
of critical condition monitoring alarms - provides proof to insurance
risk engineers that a plant is following recommended best practice
standards for maintaining its condition monitoring system.
Battery powered, rugged, lightweight and with superior payload
capability, the 9110D makes field calibration of industrial instrumentation
simple and efficient thanks to a variety of world class innovations.
These include closed-loop control, whereby speed remains steady
as amplitude changes for confirmation of alert and alarm trips
at machine running speed, on-board ICP® power and bias fault
indication and real-time sensitivity display to provide instant
pass/fail indication.
Amplitude display is in acceleration, velocity and displacement
- in both metric and imperial units - with peak, RMS or peak-to-peak
scaling options. The TMS 9110D's extensive memory is capable
of storing data for 500 sensors and exports via a supplied USB
flash memory drive.
Creation of ISO 17025 compliant calibration certificates for
linearity and frequency response is easily achieved with three
clicks of a mouse and there is no software to install.
Besides satisfying insurance requirements, the TMS 9110D is the
ideal tool for troubleshooting vibration protection systems,
reducing false trips and confirming alarm thresholds. It promotes
confidence between operations, increases reliability and improves
employee safety.
The Modal Shop is a global calibration authority of over 20 years
standing. Each portable vibration calibrator is backed by extensive
application knowledge and a policy of total customer satisfaction.
