Sensor Reliability Impact on Predictive Maintenance Program Costs
Accelerometers with lower mean time between failures (MTBF) values result in higher costs for permanently installed vibration sensor applications - as much as $60 per vibration sensor. By taking the MTBF and manufacturing quality into account when making an accelerometer purchase, you can achieve lower overall program costs.
