Vibration Sensor; a Device That Measures the Amount and Frequency of Vibration

 

Vibration Sensor


  Vibration sensors are piezoelectric accelerometers that sense vibration; they widely are used to measure fluctuating speeds/accelerations or for normal vibration measurement. These sensors are flexible devices used to measure various processes. Vibration sensors use the piezoelectric effects, measuring changes within temperature, pressure, acceleration, or force by changing to an electrical charge. The maximum amplitude or range of the vibration being measured will determine the range of the sensor that can be used.

  The vibration sensor measures several different parameters by converting vibration into electrical equivalent output. These sensors can be used to measure vibrations in the rotary machines and help detect faults in machine components. Moreover, they help improve safety because it is able to detect frequencies that can harm both machinery and people working with or on them, thereby improving the accuracy of the machinery. Vibration sensors further ensure and enhance the safety and accuracy of both the machines and the people operating in the environment.

  Thus, vibration sensor finds their applications in various end-user industries such as oil & gas, aerospace, medical & pharmaceuticals, coal & quarry, consumer electronics, and automobile, among others. Moreover, there is a growing demand for wireless vibration sensors in various end-user industries. For example, in November 2019, Emerson Electric Co. (US) launched the AMS Wireless Vibration Monitor, a low-cost, easy-to-deploy sensor that helps identify failure modes and prevent potential problems involving rotating assets.

  Vibration sensors are sensors used to measure, display, and analyze frequency, displacement, velocity, or acceleration. They are widely used in the manufacturing sector, owing to their high efficiency. Vibration sensors are an excellent way to monitor the health of key assets. In short, the vibration sensor is a device that measures the amount and frequency of vibration in a given system, machine, and/or piece of equipment. The accuracy of the sensor is determined by both the damping coefficient and the natural frequency.
