Vibration transmitters in 4–20 mA 2-wire technology – Reliable monitoring for critical machines

Vibration transmitters with 4–20 mA output in 2-wire technology are the first choice when it comes to continuous condition monitoring of rotating machines. They convert the measured vibration velocity or acceleration directly into a standardised current signal (4–20 mA) – robust, interference-free and compatible with common process control systems.

Special features and technical advantages

  • Direct 4–20 mA signal: Enables easy integration into PLC, DCS or SCADA systems without additional signal conditioning.
  • 2-wire technology: Power supply and signal transmission via a single cable – reduces cabling effort and installation costs.
  • Robust design:
    Developed for harsh industrial environments: vibration-proof, shock-resistant and with a high degree of protection (IP67 or higher).
  • Linearity and accuracy: Precise measurement of vibration velocity (mm/s) or acceleration (g) in defined frequency ranges according to ISO 10816.
  • Optional temperature compensation: Ensures accurate measurements even with large temperature fluctuations.

Typical areas of application

  • Condition monitoring of pumps, motors and compressors
  • Early detection of bearing damage or imbalances.
  • Predictive maintenance in the process industry
  • Seamless integration into existing monitoring systems for continuous plant availability.
  • Power plants and energy facilities
  • Protection against unplanned downtime through reliable vibration diagnosis.
  • Chemical industry and refineries
  • Available as an ATEX option for potentially explosive atmospheres.
