The Dynamix 2500 Data Collector
This chapter describes the Dynamix 2500 data collector and explains the
instrument’s basic and configuration and operation.
The Dynamix 2500 data collector is a real-time multi-channel Fast Fourier
Transforms (FFT) analyzer and data collector for predictive maintenance and
machinery vibration diagnostics. It is capable of measuring, processing, displaying
and storing a wide range of analysis functions. It can operate as a stand alone
instrument or you can download your measurements to your software application
for program analysis.
The combination of the Dynamix 2500 data collector with the Emonitor
software provides you with the tools for predictive maintenance using noise and
vibration analysis. The data collector can be used for a variety of other
applications also, such as balancing or bearing analysis.
A predictive maintenance program helps you decide when equipment needs to be
serviced or replaced. Part of a complete predictive maintenance program includes
vibration monitoring. The Emonitor software and the Dynamix 2500 data
collector let you to perform vibration analysis by collecting data samples.
