Vibration Analyzer Enables Faster Data Collection and Analysis

June 25, 2013
CSI 2140 Machinery Health Analyzer provides a complete tool for assessing and preserving mechanical equipment health

The CSI 2140 Machinery Health Analyzer is the next generation of the company's portable tool for analyzing machinery vibration to detect potential problems before they lead to unplanned downtime. The new analyzer builds on the capabilities of the CSI 2130 to provide new four-channel simultaneous data collection functionality, wireless and Bluetooth communication, and a full-color touchscreen. Its new ergonomic shape and lighter weight make data-collection routes easier on users. The screen was designed to be easy to read in both direct sunlight and dark areas and auto-adjusts based on ambient lighting.

Because over 50 percent of mechanical issues are caused by bearing wear, effective monitoring of bearing health is a key component of a reliability program. With four-channel data collection, users can collect vertical, horizontal, and axial readings on a bearing at the same time. Using this data and the company's PeakVue technology, reliability technicians can detect compromised bearing performance earlier than with any other measurement technique, according to the company. In addition, advanced diagnostics embedded in the CSI 2140 help users drive to the root cause of mechanical issues.

Additional CSI 2140 capabilities enable users to perform single, dual, or four-channel vibration analysis, cross-channel analysis, transient analysis, structural analysis, AC electric motor monitoring, and 4-plane dynamic balancing.
