Vibration Meters
Davis Instruments offers a complete line of portable vibration meters and vibration transmitters designed for measuring acceleration, velocity, and displacement of many different types of equipment. We offer vibration meters that are loaded with many features, including manual/auto, store/recall, min/max, RMS and peak value modes, data hold, and full analysis software.
Why Use Vibration Meters?
Vibration meters take the guesswork out of machinery maintenance and vibration studies. Many factors can cause excessive vibration in rotating machinery including worn out bearings and couplings, foundation damage, broken mounting bolts, or even misalignment and unbalance. A vibration measurement program helps to stop these failures by detecting machine problems before any serious problems occurr.
Vibration meters allow you to monitor machinery and conduct thorough vibration inspections and comparative studies. Units provide accuracies up to 2.5% of reading, with selectable ranges, and are battery operated with digital LCD displays.
The vibration meter is a vital instrument in troubleshooting machinery perfomance and should be used in your preventive maintenance programs to help save time and money in eliminating critical downtime.

Vibration Transmitters
Our vibration transmitters are perfect solutions for continuous monitoring of machinery, fans, motors, pumps, compressors, and conveyors. A vibration transmitter can be used for vibration monitoring of equipment in remote or hazardous locations. Designed in a rugged NEMA 4 rated case these vibration transmitters are ideal for all your industrial applications.
These vibration transmitters provide a range up to 0 to 5 in/sec and feature a two-wire, 4 to 20 mA signal format. Each vibration transmitter includes 1/2 inch NPT thread, or 1/4-20 stud x 1/2" deep for easy mounting.
