Overview

Side / Bottom View

Charging the 9075

The 9075 can be charged using a wireless charging pad. Place the 9075 backside down on the charging pad. Make sure the charge indication icon on the 9075 is placed on the pad. Please see the charge indication icon below.

The ORANGE power indication LED will flash while the 9075 is charging. When the 9075 is fully charged, the power indication LED will flash GREEN.

Turning the 9075 On and Off

Powering On

Press & hold the On/Off button to turn the 9075 on. The Green power LED will illuminate.

Powering Off
Press and hold the On/Off buttonuntil the 9075 turns off. The Power and Bluetooth LED’s will illuminate Orange and Blue respectively prior to turning off.

9075 LED Conditions

Not Charging

Solid Green LED on when turned on and battery >= 20%.
Solid Red LED on when turned on and battery < 20%

When Charging

Flashing Red LED if battery is < 20%.
Flashing Orange LED if battery is >= 20% & < 98%.
Solid Green LED if the battery is fully charged

When in Operation
Blue LED turns on when connected to a tablet. Orange and Blue LED on prior to turning off when the on/off switch is held down.

Using the 9075

Turn the 9075 on. The 9075 is ready to be connected to a smart device running the TPI View app.
Open the View app on the smart device and tap on Scan for Devices. The View app will search for the 9075. Tap on the 9075 to be connected. When connected, the Bluetooth LED of the 9075 will illuminate.

Attach the 9075 to the measurement point of the machine under test.
Note: For best results the sensor should be placed gently onto the measurement point by “rolling” the magnet onto the machine. This is done to avoid any sudden shocks that would be seen as large acceleration peaks by the sensor and could take some time (several seconds) to go away.
Tap on Take Reading to perform measurements with the 9075. Measurement data will be sent from the 9075 to the View app. The app allows Velocity, Bearing Damage Units (BDU), and Total Acceleration to be displayed. Tapping on VA Bands will display the Velocity at different frequency bands and tapping on FFT will display the FFT graph. The run speed can be adjusted to match the machine under test by tapping on Run Speed and entering the speed of the device under test. Readings can be saved and a report generated.

Understanding Vibration Readings

Once a vibration reading has been taken, the display will show three values, as shown in the example screen opposite. The values are color coded to show their alarm status as explained in the following sections.
The three values shown in the readings screen are:

ISO value (velocity in mm/second or inch/s)
Bearing Noise in BDU (Bearing Damage Units)
Total g (acceleration)

These readings are explained in more detail below with some examples of what they actually mean:

ISO value (mm/s)
The ISO value (in mm/s or inch/s) is the large number displayed at the top of the screen, which is the RMS (average) of the vibration velocity in the frequency band 10Hz (600 RPM) to 1kHz (60,000 RPM) or 2Hz (120 RPM) to 1kHz (60,000 RPM), as specified by the ISO standard1. The correct frequency band is automatically selected by the meter based on running speed. The ISO value background is color coded according to the ISO 10816-1 vibration velocity level chart
(see below).

Bearing Noise (BDU)
Below the displayed ISO value and to the left is the value of bearing noise (high frequency vibration) in Bearing Damage Units (BDU), where 100 BDU corresponds to 1g RMS (average) vibration measured above 1kHz. This is a measure of the wear state of the bearings in the equipment being monitored. The higher the number, the more worn the bearing. It is commonly held that 1g of high-frequency vibration (100 BDU) corresponds to a relatively high level of bearing noise and so can be considered indicative of a damaged bearing. In other words, it may be helpful to think of the Bearing Noise figure as being very roughly equivalent to “percentage” of bearing wear. By default, the bearing noise is displayed on a Red background if it is above 100 BDU, an Amber background between 50 and 100 BDU, and a Green background below 50 BDU. However, the BDU alarm levels can be changed using the Manual Setup menu (see section 2.3.2.1).

Total acceleration (g)
This is the RMS (average) value of the total vibration acceleration measured by the meter over its entire frequency range (2Hz to 10kHz). This reading is shown in units of g (Earth’s gravitational constant, where 1g = 9.81 m/s2).
