November 30, 2010 - Meggitt released a short form catalog of Wilcoxon Research products, containing accelerometers, 4-20 mA vibration sensors, vibration transmitters, cables and accessories for industrial condition based maintenance and predictive maintenance applications.The industrial vibration monitoring catalog features the most popular Wilcoxon Research premium, standard, high-performance, specialty and 4-20 mA vibration sensors, which lead the industry in quality and innovation. The catalog also includes the popular Intelligent Transmitter series, a vibration transmitter, vibration alarm and communication module which output 4-20 mA vibration data. Most process control systems, such as a PLC, DCS or SCADA system, accept 4-20 mA data as a standard input.
This easy-to-read reference brochure is designed to make sensor selection fast and hassle-free. Models are sorted by type and include application information. The catalog also includes a sensor selection chart which simplifies identifying the right sensor based upon specifications." The new short form catalog has a variety of high quality products for any vibration monitoring need.
