Making It In A High Frequency World Striving for High-Frequency Industrial Accelerometers
As predictive maintenance teams in industrial facilities strive for a more complete picture of their equipment’s health, high frequency vibration measurements have become a crucial addition to identify faults such as motor and pump bearing defects and gear tooth inconsistencies in high-speed gearboxes. As a result, there is an upsurge in demand for vibration sensors with a high frequency response.

Why MEMS Accelerometers Are Becoming the Designer’s Best Choice for CbM Applications
A small number of semiconductor manufacturers have overcome the noise, bandwidth and g-Range shortcomings commonly associated with MEMS sensors used in Condition-based Monitoring (CbM) by producing several medium and high-performance MEMS vibration sensors with the latter being comparable to piezo accelerometers.

Multiple Technology Approach to Motor Diagnosis & Troubleshooting
The multi-technology approach to motor diagnostics means using different testing technologies to complement and validate each other. For example, when a vibration technician suspects a possible rotor problem in a critical application, and the cost to repair or replace requires a loss of production, where the motor’s cost is small compared to the incurred costs of the shutdown.
