Enhancing Equipment Health Monitoring with Advantech WISE-2460 Smart Vibration Sensing Solution
Advantech has introduced the new WISE-2460 innovative vibration sensing solution. This advanced device supports RS-485 serial communication through Modbus/RTU protocols and boasts Z-axis sensitivity spanning from 5 to 10000Hz. ISO 10816-1 compliant and capable of operating in a wide temperature range of -20°C to 105°C, WISE-2460 sets a new standard in vibration sensing technology.
Designed for monitoring equipment RPM and frequency detection ranges in challenging environments, WISE-2460 features an ARM Cortex-M7 processor, a high-detection-range Z-axis accelerometer, and a temperature sensor, all enclosed in a robust IP68-rated enclosure. The device simplifies configuration and alarm threshold management through the user-friendly Advantech WISE Studio utility.
Single-axis High-Frequency Vibration Inspection and Preventive Maintenance with ISO 10816-1
Unlike conventional piezo vibration sensors that require connection to a high-speed DAQ card and subsequent calculations on a remote IPC, the WISE-2460 series offers an integrated solution. Capable of swiftly executing data acquisition, processing, and publication in seconds, it easily outperforms costly and inefficient traditional setups. WISE-2460 is designed to identify vibrations within the 5 to 10,000 Hz range through single-axis measurements. It transmits data using RS-485 and supports the Modbus/RTU protocol, making it well-suited for a variety of industrial applications. Its enhanced sensitivity enables the sensor to detect emerging problems not visible at lower frequencies. WISE-2460 also provides vibration data for four machine classes across four levels, following ISO 10816-1 guidelines. By analyzing these vibration characteristics, operators can swiftly diagnose motor problems. This empowers maintenance teams to proactively tackle issues before they deteriorate, reducing downtime and averting expensive equipment malfunctions.
