Echo® Wireless Vibration Monitoring System - 1

IMI Sensors - A PCB Piezotronics Division IMI Sensors - A PCB Piezotronics Division Echo® Wireless Vibration Monitoring System A Simple, Affordable, Effective Wireless Vibration Monitoring System Why use valuable manpower to collect vibration data on healthy machines? Why settle for measurements once a month when you can have them multiple times daily? Why have people venture into unsafe areas to collect routine measurements? Echo® Wireless Vibration Sensors can safely “look” at the machine’s health several times per day and provide immediate notification when warning or critical levels are reached. This frees up technical experts, like certified vibration analysts, for higher value tasks such as fault analysis. n Easily integrates with legacy vibration and plant monitoring systems via Modbus® Transmits long distances Runs stand alone or with junction box Stores data in ODBC format Requires no repeaters, gateways, or mesh Eliminates expensive cable runs Class I, Division 2 certification pending

Echo® Wireless Vibration Monitoring System - 4

Echo® Wireless Vibration Monitoring System The Echo® Wireless Vibration Monitoring System is simple in design, easy to install, cost-effective and flexible in configuration. With 12 independent RF bands and over 400 points per receiver, the system can monitor over 5,000 points even within the same RF coverage area. Outside the same coverage area, the number is even higher. Standalone Echo® Sensors and EchoPlus® Junction Boxes can be mixed and matched as desired. EchoPlus® and optional RV Echo® provide a raw vibration output via cable to a data collector for detailed fault analysis. Echo®...
