In today’s world, where unexpected heavy rains and floods have become a frequent occurrence due to global warming, the proper operation of floodgates and dams to control waterways is indispensable for community safety. By measuring the vibration of motors that open and close floodgates and dams in accordance with ISO standard requirements, Epson’s vibration sensors enable infrastructure operators to assess the condition of the equipment and perform maintenance as needed.
Epson wants its vibration sensors to play a part in protecting social infrastructure that is essential for securing community safety.
Features of the M-A342VD10 and M-A542VR10
- ISO 10816 and ISO 20816 compliant: Support velocity and displacement output
- Wide dynamic range: No need to adjust the measurement range to match the magnitude of vibration
- Impervious to magnetic fields: Quartz crystal sensors can accurately measure motors that generate a strong magnetic field
- Resistant to noise: Digital output is resistant to the effects of noise
- Simple measurement environment: No charge amp, A/D converter or other peripheral equipment needed
- High reliability: Mean time between failures (MTBF) of 87,600 hours guaranteed
Product applications
Motors for operating weirs, floodgates, dam gates, etc.
