The Synergys VSHOOTER VBS1T Vibration Analyzer will allow you to pinpoint and identify if your machine is misaligned, unbalanced or has undesirable vibrations while in use. Now you can instantly diagnose machine bearing conditions or if your machine is in need of lubrication.
No longer do you need additional PC software and have to download results to see if you have a problem, everything is completed and stored directly on the VSHOOTER. However, you can easily download your results to a PC for more in-depth analysis.
The Synergys VSHOOTER is a vibrometer equipped with an external high-quality accelerometer, an embedded camera, LED stroboscope and pyrometer. It indicates the severity of your problem through color codes that let you easily diagnose how well your machine is operating. The condition report appears in green, yellow, orange or red according to the classification of ISO 10816-3&7.
- The vibrations of newly installed machines are usually placed in the green zone.
- The machines whose vibrations are within the yellow zone are normally considered acceptable for a long service life without any restrictions.
- Machines whose vibrations are in the orange zone are typically considered unsuitable for long-term, continued use.
Overall, the machine can operate in this range for a limited time, until the opportunity arises to make repairs. - The vibration values found in the red zone are considered significant enough to cause damage.
You can store every MCP (Machine Condition Picture) with its corresponding vibration measurements in the memory of the VSHOOTER. Up to 1000 MCPs can be stored and uploaded to a PC through the supplied USB cable.
For measurement values within orange and red zones, the VSHOOTER VBS1T automatically performs a self-diagnosis and displays the Velocity and Acceleration results. On the FFT screens you will be directed automatically to one of the 5 most common defects (75% of faults) including: unbalance, bearing shock and lubrication, alignment, and foundation. If none of these issues resolve the problem, then more in-depth analysis with a more powerful analyzer is needed.
