The Robertshaw Model 566 Vibration Monitor
is a solid state instrument that encompasses a variety of functions all in
one unit.
Vibration can be monitored in either velocity or
acceleration. The standard ranges are 0 to 1.5 inches/second or 0 to 3
inches/second when sensing velocity and 0 to 5 g's or 0 to 10 g's when
sensing acceleration. A 4-20 mA DC output is provided to drive a 750 ohm
maximum load.
The Model 566 includes two solid state Triacs (2 amp @
120/240 VAC) which can be operated in a N.O. or N.C. configuration. Alarms
are capable of being latched or non latched (ON-OFF). Alarm # 1 has a
monitor time delay adjustable from 0.5 to 15 seconds. LED setpoint
indicators are provided to indicate the alarm condition.
The Model 566 vibration instrument and optional remote
mounted sensor are housed in a weatherproof and explosion proof enclosure.
NOTE that on the remote sensor unit the connection from
the Model 566 to the remote sensor need only be an ungrounded pair of
twisted wire.
