VWV002 is a three-axis wireless vibration sensor for industrial machine condition monitoring. It measures vibration velocity up to 25 mm/s and acceleration from -16 to +16 g. The sensor covers a 10…1000 Hz frequency range for vibration analysis. Wireless operation simplifies installation where conventional sensor cabling is difficult. IP68 protection makes the sensor suitable for demanding industrial environments.

VWV002 measures vibration across three axes for broader machine-condition analysis. Multi-axis measurement provides additional information about radial and axial machine behaviour. The 0…25 mm/s velocity range supports general rotating-equipment monitoring. The acceleration range extends to ±16 g for higher-energy vibration events. This makes the sensor useful for comprehensive machine diagnostics.
The sensor communicates wirelessly through the VWV monitoring ecosystem. Battery operation eliminates the need for conventional power wiring at the measurement point. The wireless mesh architecture supports distributed machine monitoring. Multiple sensors can be installed across different assets. This helps simplify condition-monitoring expansion.
VWV002 sends vibration and temperature information to the appropriate gateway. The gateway can transfer data into higher-level IT and IIoT environments. This allows maintenance teams to analyse machine-condition information centrally. The wireless design is useful for retrofit projects and difficult cable routes. It supports scalable predictive-maintenance architectures.

Three-axis measurement provides more information than a single-axis sensor. It can help identify vibration behaviour in different physical directions. This is useful when machine faults produce different radial and axial vibration patterns. Measurement data can be collected wirelessly from selected machine locations. The result is a flexible condition-monitoring arrangement.
VWV002 reduces the wiring infrastructure required at individual measurement points. Battery operation allows installation without a separate power cable. Wireless transmission sends the collected data to a gateway. The gateway can connect the monitoring system to digital maintenance platforms. This provides a practical architecture for plant-wide machine monitoring.
