General purpose accelerometers
Wilcoxon general purpose accelerometers sense vibration commonly found in most industrial machinery. Applications include monitoring of motors, fans, pumps, moderate speed gearboxes, machine tool spindles and paper machine rolls.
Measurements on these types of machines require a broad frequency range, moderate amplitude range and moderate sensor noise floors.
Some general purpose accelerometers can be supplied in the ‘hazardous area’ version (Y), for applications in potentially explosive athmosphere.
