Vibration Measurement Instruments
Important information
Safety precautions
Vibration measurement and balancing involves measurement on rotating machines.
Keep a safe distance to rotating parts and secure transducers and transducer cables
from rotating parts. Always follow internal, local and national security
regulations! When working with weights on the rotor always secure the start
switch with a locker and also use the emergency switch for double safety. This is
especially important when the machine is remote controlled.
VMI International AB takes no responsibility for any accidents on people and
machines.
VMI International AB and our authorized dealers will take no
responsibility for damages on machines and plants as the result
of the use of VIBER X1™ measurements.
Even though great efforts are made to make the information in
this manual free from errors and to make the information
complete for the user, there could be items we have missed,
because of the large amount of information. As a result of this,
we might change and correct these items in later issues without
further notice. Also changes in the VIBER X1™ equipment may
take place that affect the accuracy of the information.
