I. INTRODUCTION

The level of vibration is a useful guide to the balance, alignment and gen­eral condition of pumps, motors, and other machinery. Poor balance, mis­alignment and looseness results in higher levels of vibration and indicates
maintenance is required for operational as well as safety reasons.
Measures velocity and acceleration. The large display indicates RMS,
Peak, min-max, hold, and low battery. Features auto power off and an
RS232 computer interface. Comes ready to use in a foam-lined, hard­shell carrying case, with a detachable strongly magnetic probe, 9V battery
and instructions.
