Cost-effective protection for smaller items of plant and machinery

The high-performance DIN rail mountable unit is capable of monitoring two channels of bearing vibration, shaft vibration, or shaft position and offers fully programmable signal conditioning with a range of measurement algorithms and sensor options.

In addition, the DN26 G3 offers a dedicated speed monitor channel which can also be utilised as a phase reference for harmonic analysis of the vibration signals. The unit is designed for optimum flexibility; as a universal module (single hardware platform) it is field upgradable and can be programmed for any of the measurement options detailed above. It is available with mains or +24V power supply options.

The sensor interface is programmable to accept IEPE type accelerometers/velometers, proximity probes (API 670 standard), and active/passive speed probes. All sensor signals are available via a buffered interface that provides the option of further detailed analysis if required.

Three alarm relays are available as standard (expandable to up to seven relays via a digital interface), one dedicated to indicate module and sensor integrity, the other two relays are fully programmable across the alarm criteria selected. All three input channel measured values are available via a 4-20mA interface.

The unit is available with Ethernet communications as standard, permitting configuration either locally or remotely through the inbuilt web server and offering Modbus over TCPIP for connecting measured data to other plant wide systems.
