Installation, Configuration and Commissioning

The installation of the accelerometers is very easy. For each sensor, a small mounting base is glued on the machine. The sensor itself is screwed. Now, the sensor cables are connected to the Peakanalyzer. The power supply and a network cable is connected, too. 

The Peakanalyzer has to be supplied with some basic information. These are the kinematic data of the drive and a few fundamental definitions. The correct connection of all sensors can be checked again. The relevant menus are avail-able. Thereafter, the Peakanalyzer can be put into operation, immediately. Now, the system starts the monitoring.

Recommended positioning of accelerometers:

• Motor B-bearing: radial
• Motor A-bearing: radial and axial
• Planetary gear stage: drive end and output side, radial
• Cylindrical gear stage: drive end and output side, radial
