Fluke’s 805 vibration meter is a portable multifunction vibration screening tool that provides quantifiable information on a bearing and the overall health of motors and other rotating equipment. It is ideal for frontline mechanical troubleshooting teams that need reliable and repeatable measurements of rotating equipment to make go/no-go maintenance decisions.
The 805 vibration meter is vastly superior on every front. It provides quantifiable information on bearing condition, overall vibration and temperature, assesses condition severity using text-based alerts, and exports and trends data using built-in templates.
The Fluke 805 measures overall vibration from 10 to 1000 Hz, providing a four-level severity assessment for overall vibration and bearing condition.
It also identifies bearing condition (Crest factor Plus, CF+) by detecting peaks in the vibration signal readings of roller bearings from 4000 to 20 000 Hz, using a proprietary algorithm to interpret severity to determine if the bearing is going bad.
It also measures surface temperature using an infrared sensor which automatically measures contact temperature and displays it along with the vibration reading for a broader understanding of machine health.
The Fluke 805 handheld vibration meter has a unique sensor tip design that minimises measurement variations caused by device angle or contact pressure. This reduces operator error and improves the accuracy and repeatability of quick vibration screening. The meter also provides a severity scale for both overall vibration and bearing condition readings, delivering more information than comparable vibration pens. Logged data can be easily uploaded into Excel to create trending reports.
