The Vibration Meter Data Logger – VSEW_mk4 – 8g is a new model in the VSE series of smart vibration dataloggers. It can record accelerations, vibrations, velocities and inclinations. It includes a 3-axis MEMS accelerometer, an accurate date/time clock and a non-volatile 128 Mb recording memory. Depending on the settings it can record acceleration or velocity signals and/or RMS levels for months. Its very small size allows it to be attached to, or embedded within, the monitored equipment.
The Vibration Meter Data Logger – VSEW_mk4 – 8g model is an evolution of the VSEW_mk2– 8g model.
