Selection of instrumentation for shafting systems
Thread Content
For shafting instrumentation, is it more reasonable to use transmitters or frame-mounted instruments?
Personal understanding: A transmitter is sufficient for small rotating equipment, while a frame is needed for larger rotating equipment. The signal from a transmitter is relatively simpler compared to that from a frame; a frame, along with a server, workstation, diagnostic software, etc., constitutes the ideal configuration……
The on-site environment is relatively harsh, so the failure rate of on-site transmitters is slightly higher.
Yes, the transmitter also requires many card slot channels
If one wants to use an on-unit rotor fault diagnosis system, frame instruments are necessary; otherwise, it’s up to one’s discretion – if funds are limited, it’s better to use transmitters.
Transmitters for shafting instruments are very, very rare, unless it’s a small unit
