LUDECA, INC. introduces VIBXPERT® II, the latest addition to the PRUEFTECHNIK family of portable route-based vibration data collectors. VIBXPERT II is rugged and lightweight —weighing only 2-1/2 pounds! It combines the advantages of a rapid processor with a brilliant energy-efficient color VGA display. Enhanced with a Fmax of 51KHz and up to 102, 400 Lines of Resolution, all machinery problems can be captured and easily analyzed on the VIBXPERT II large color screen. The VIBXPERT II Basic platform is a 1-channel device that can be upgraded at any time to 2 individually configured channels via a special passcode —user-upgradable and does not require hardware changes.  All forms of machine vibrations, bearing conditions, process data, and visual inspection information can be collected and stored on the expandable Compact Flash Card (up to 8 gigabytes) for report generation or for later transfer to the powerful OMNITREND® software for further analysis, reporting and archiving. The VIBXPERT vibration analyzer provides an easy-to-use icon-driven platform that offers comprehensive analysis functionality for the diagnosis of simple or very complex vibration problems. Capabilities include order spectrum, phase, cepstrum, cross-channel phase, orbits, run-up, and coast-down measurements, bump test, negative averaging, and more. Analysis tools, including various cursor types, machine-specific frequency markers, signal post-processing, and extensive bearing databases are included for evaluating each spectrum. Alarm notifications based on ISO standards or user-defined standards are visually identified with the aid of colored LEDs.The VIBXPERT II features modular functionality including dynamic field balancing, extended time waveform recording, transient data capture, UFF file export, Modal/ODS support, and more.
