Monitran Technology is Launched ....more info
Monitran Ltd, a world leader in vibration sensors and condition monitoring devices, has launched the new low-profile MTN/1135 accelerometer to facilitate inexpensive vibration monitoring in difficult-to-reach locations – without compromising accuracy or reliability.
Developed in response to customer demand and based on Monitran’s proven sensor technology, the MTN/1135 is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications including machine tools, rotating spindles, presses and similar heavy-duty equipment employed throughout the manufacturing and automotive sectors.
Particularly suited to vibration monitoring of DC servo drives and AC motors, the MTN/1135 features an innovative mounting unit that enables the sensor to rotate around the centre of the mounting point without entangling or twisting its connecting cable.
The MTN/1135’s slim profile, comprising a flat-faced sensor and mount, further facilitates easy access in difficult-to-reach locations allowing it to be mounted from any direction. Unlike competing sensor devices that often have a rounded profile, the MTN/1135 can be easily installed using a spanner.
Providing excellent frequency response of 0.8Hz to 8kHz ±5% and 100mV/g ±10% sensitivity at 80Hz, the MTN/1135 is not only more accurate than competing devices it is also 50% less expensive. Monitran has been able to pass on this considerable cost saving to end-users by employing state-of-the-art design and innovative UK manufacturing techniques.
In addition to offering a temperature range of -25°C to 120°C, temperature sensitivity of 0.08%/°C and a dynamic range of ±50g, the MTN/1135 features stainless-steel construction and IP67 rating. Being completely sealed against the ingress of coolant and swarf further contributes to MTN/1135 ’s suitability for industrial applications.
Available with various mounts and an integral stainless-steel overbraided single-core PTFE cable in a choice of lengths, the MTN/1135 offers an unrivalled degree of flexibility.
