The accelerometer is used as a hand-held measuring device for the individual assessment of vibrations on machines and systems. With the help of this vibration meter, the actual state can easily be determined on site. Thus, corresponding changes can be made directly on site after the measurement. Thereafter, the new condition can be assessed. Thus, the vibration meter serves as a measuring device for a relative measurement on different machines.
The accelerometer serves essentially as precautionary or preventive maintenance of production machines. Very often, the vibration meter is used to assess the state of smaller electric motors.
