Vibration Sensors for Machines

It measures how much a machine part moves as it runs, usually as velocity in mm/s or acceleration in g, read from the bearing housing. Rising vibration is often the first sign of unbalance, misalignment, a loose mounting or a worn bearing, well before the fault is audible or causes a breakdown.

It's a standard for evaluating machine condition from vibration velocity, measured in mm/s rms on non-rotating parts such as bearing housings. Hauber sensors like the HE090 and HE055 are built to this standard, so their readings can be compared against its published severity limits for different machine types.

Velocity (mm/s) is the standard choice for general machine condition monitoring and matches DIN ISO 10816. Acceleration (g) responds better to high-frequency faults such as early-stage bearing damage. The HE050 and HE055 are configurable for either, while the HE205 specifically adds acceleration measurement.

The HE200 and HE205 both add two potential-free switching contacts to their 4 to 20 mA output, so a machine can trip or alarm locally without waiting on a PLC. The HE205 additionally measures acceleration, useful where early bearing faults are the main concern.

Yes, the HE101 adds bearing temperature measurement to the same vibration monitoring as the HE100 series, giving both readings from one sensor. This suits machines where a temperature rise and a vibration rise together give a stronger early warning than either reading alone.

Yes, the portable vibration meter is a handheld unit for taking HE100-series readings on site, useful for spot checks on machines that don't have a permanent sensor installed, or for confirming a fixed sensor's reading during commissioning or a maintenance round.
