The SKF Machine Condition Advisor is a rugged, easy-to-use, handheld device that measures vibration signals and temperature simultaneously to indicate machine health or bearing damage and provide early warning of costly machine problems. It measures vibration signals from 10 Hz to 1,000 Hz and temperature from minus 20C to 200C (minus 4F to 392F). The ergonomically designed device uses a rechargeable lithium ion battery. An alarm is displayed when measurements exceed guidelines, indicating potential bearing damage.
