The IPS Beacon unit includes a built-in battery and should be disposed of in accordance with applicable battery disposal regulations. Batteries should not be incinerated, unless suitable procedures are followed and qualified handlers have taken appropriate precautions. Exposure of these cells to high temperatures or fire can cause the cells to vent and/or rupture. These cells do not contain dangerous substances. The reaction products are inorganic and do not represent environmental hazards, once the decomposition or neutralization process has terminated.

Disposal in Europe

Batteries for disposal should not be transported by air. For road transport of dangerous goods ADR special provision 636 and packing instruction 903a apply.

Disposal in US

Hazardous waste of spent batteries can be disposed after they are first neutralized through an approved secondary treatment prior to disposal. Disposal of spent batteries should be performed by authorized, professional disposal company, which has the knowledge in the requirements of the Federal, the State and the Local authorities regarding hazardous materials, transportation and waste disposal. In any case it is recommended to contact the local EPA office.

3 DESCRIPTION

The IPS Beacon is a cost effective means of measuring the basic health of equipment. It is designed to quickly convey the health of any equipment it is attached to, based on vibration and temperature measurements.

The IPS Beacon is a battery powered unit that offers the ability to measure 3-axis vibration and temperature of any equipment it is attached to. The IPS Beacon is completely encapsulated including battery, electronics and sensor packaged inside a 316L SS case. The IPS Beacon also provides two LED indicator lights for a quick visualization of equipment health.

3.1 Configurations

Base IPS Beacon unit is provided with preset factory set points. Each unit also offers optional upgrades to allow for data logging [see section 3.5 Take away memory module (TAM)], data downloads to a PC format and unit configuration.

The IPS Beacon offers the ability to program alarm levels for each of the vibration axes (see Figure 3: X-Y- Z axis orientation) and temperature values. If those alarm levels are exceeded, the IPS Beacon will provide a visual indication using the LED indicator lights and also log the last alarm value for each of the data parameters.

3.1.1 Factory preset alarm settings

The IPS Beacon comes pre-programmed with the following default settings for the user-configurable options:
