Vibration Sensors for Balanset Series Devices

Description:

The vibration sensor is based on the ADXL335 accelerometer and is supplied with a 5 m cable as standard. A 10 m cable option is available; select the required length before adding the sensor to your cart.

Technical Specifications:

  • Power Supply: 1.8V – 3.6V
  • Measurement Range: ±3g (X, Y, Z)
  • Sensitivity: ~300 mV/g at 3V
  • Output: Analog
  • Current Consumption: ~350 µA
  • Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C
  • Dimensions: 20*20*20 mm

Velocity range at the ±3 g (ADXL335) limit

Because the ADXL335 measures up to ±3 g, the maximum vibration velocity it can capture depends on frequency. The table below shows the velocity ceiling — the level at which acceleration reaches ±3 g:

Frequency RPM Vmax (peak) Vmax (RMS)
10 Hz 600 468 mm/s 331 mm/s
25 Hz 1500 187 mm/s 132 mm/s
50 Hz 3000 93.7 mm/s 66.2 mm/s
100 Hz 6000 46.8 mm/s 33.1 mm/s
200 Hz 12000 23.4 mm/s 16.6 mm/s
500 Hz 30000 9.4 mm/s 6.6 mm/s
1000 Hz 60000 4.7 mm/s 3.3 mm/s

Calculation: Vpeak (mm/s) = 3 · 9810 / (2π·f) ≈ 4683 / f. RMS = peak / √2.

This is the maximum vibration velocity before the sensor reaches its ±3 g ceiling. At typical balancing speeds (1500–3000 rpm) the velocity headroom is far above any ISO 10816 threshold; the acceleration limit only becomes significant on high-speed spindles from 30,000 rpm and up.

Safety information and warnings

  • Electrical safety. Observe electrical safety regulations when working on 220 V equipment. Never repair the device while it is connected to 220 V.
  • Machine lockout. Always apply lockout/tagout procedures before installing sensors.
  • Protective equipment. Wear safety glasses and hearing protection, and avoid loose clothing near rotating machinery.
  • Secure installation. Make sure all sensors and cables are fastened and cannot be caught by rotating parts.
  • Trained personnel only. Know the location of emergency stops and the shutdown procedure before starting work.
