Sensors – Vibration Monitor

Vibration Monitor

The Vibration Monitoring Sensor Module is designed to detect and log mechanical vibrations from industrial pumps and rotating machinery. Leveraging the MXC4005XC MEMS accelerometer, this daughterboard enables real-time vibration analysis, allowing for predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and extended equipment lifespan. The module interfaces seamlessly with the existing Single Node system infrastructure. The sensor uses an RS485 interface and Modbus protocol, allowing for robust communication and simplified system integration. The Single Node acts as the Modbus master, enabling reliable networking with minimal overhead.

Features

  • Real-time 3-axis vibration monitoring for rotating equipment such as pumps, motors, and HVAC systems
  • Predictive maintenance capability to detect early signs of mechanical failure
  • Low-power design ideal for long-term deployment in remote or underground environments
  • Seamless integration with existing environmental monitoring infrastructure (Single Node platform)
  • Versatile alert system with multi-color LED indicators for system status and vibration thresholds
  • Supports industrial and harsh environments, including high-humidity and thermally variable areas
  • Condition-based diagnostics enable smarter servicing schedules and reduced downtime
