SPM VC100 VibChecker Vibration Meter

SPM VC100 VibChecker Vibration Meter is a light and compact-sized instrument for vibration measurement in the 10-1000 Hz frequency range. Measurement results are immediately and automatically evaluated against ISO standards. Green – yellow – red LEDs indicate vibration severity and a real time FFT spectrum is produced for easy pattern recognition. Results can be stored for documentation and follow-up.

With its built-in probe, easy button operation and clear symbols, VibChecker is an all set to go instrument; just point the probe and measure to locate vibration-related problems.

VibChecker is an instrument for fast and easy measurement of machine condition in preventive maintenance. The instrument and the monitoring technique are based on the recommendations of ISO2372 and ISO10816 standards for broad band measurements of vibration. These standards make the assumption that limited information, obtained easily and at a low cost, is often as pinuseful as a detailed analysis using expensive equipment and elaborate techniques.

VibChecker has a built in probe transducer. It is push button controlled and basic measurement data are entered manually. Evaluated measuring results are indicated by green-yellow-red LEDs and a real time FFT spectrum is produced for easy pattern recognition.
