Product Usage Instructions

General Description

The Neuron Vibration RMS measures acceleration across three axes every 2 minutes. It calculates the RMS g value of the acceleration and transmits the data, including temperature, to a Neuron Gateway. The data is then sent to the Neuron Cloud for analysis.

Installation

Neuron sensors are ready for use out of the box. Register the sensor in the app to start logging data. For optimal performance, place the sensor elevated with some distance to fixed objects. Avoid close proximity to metallic surfaces as they can affect RF signals.

FAQ

Q: How do I register the sensor in the app?
- A: To register the sensor in the app, follow the instructions provided in the user manual or app guide. Typically, you will need to create an account, add the sensor, and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the registration process.
Q: Can the sensor be used outdoors?
- A: The sensor is designed for indoor use and wet conditions with an IP Grade of IP 67. It is not recommended for prolonged outdoor exposure.
Q: What is the battery type used in the sensor?
- A: The sensor uses a Lithium Manganese Dioxide battery with a voltage of 3.0V for long-lasting operation.

General Description

Neuron Vibration RMS is a battery-powered, wireless device that senses and transmits RMS acceleration processed from its triaxial accelerometer to the Neuron Cloud. The sensor provides a measurement range of 0 – 12 g RMS in a resolution of 1 mg. It also has a temperature sensor mounted on its magnet, measuring the object’s ambient temperature over the range -40 to 85°C.

The device is housed in an IP67 rated enclosure that provides protection against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for use in harsh industrial environments. It’s small size and light weight, paired with its magnetic mounting makes it a very powerful device, ideal for use in predictive maintenance and monitoring of vibration levels on a variety of industrial equipment and machinery.

Principle of Operation

Neuron Vibration RMS measures acceleration across three axes during a period of 80 ms every 2 minutes. The sensors calculate the RMS g value of the acceleration and transmit the data, including the temperature data, to a nearby Neuron Gateway. The gateway sends the data to the Neuron Cloud, where the user can view and analyze the vibration data across their assets.

The symbol on the product label refers to this data sheet for important information regarding intended use, requirements for the operating environment etc. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by El-Watch, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Installation

Neuron sensors are ready for use out of the box and will start logging data after registering the sensor in the \app. Even though Neuron sensors deliver great range and long battery life, following some simple guidelines for mounting of the sensor and gateway can greatly improve signal coverage and lifetime of the sensor.

To ensure optimal antenna performance and signal strength, the sensor should be placed elevated with some distance to fixed objects. Keep in mind that RF-signals are greatly affected by close metallic surfaces. For sensors with an external antenna, the antenna should be clear off the metallic surface.

Dimensions

Neuron Magnetic Mounting Assembly

For sensors operating in environments with greatly varying temperatures, care should be taken to avoid putting the sensor in unnecessary stress. Very high or low temperatures will affect the battery life and the signal strength of the sensor. While some sensors must be close to the source of heat or cold, other sensors have external probes which allow the sensor to be placed at a distance.

Fastening

Neuron Vibration RMS is fitted with a strong magnet at the back for easy fastening. If there is a non-magnetic surface, PN 422691 Neuron Magnetic Mounting Assembly is a good solution. Epoxy glue can also be used to fasten the sensor to non-magnetic surfaces
