Bently Nevada 80466-02 TK81 Vibration Meter

This vibration meter provides reliable machinery diagnostics through tunable filtering and direct readout capabilities. It monitors overall vibration levels in rotating equipment such as turbines, compressors, and pumps. The instrument delivers fast, accurate measurements for routine condition monitoring.

Measurement and Filtering Capabilities

The Bently Nevada 80466-02 TK81 offers a tunable filter design that isolates specific frequency components. It measures overall vibration amplitude in mils, millimeters, or velocity units for flexible reporting. Users can select from three filter ranges: F1 (10-1000 Hz), F2 (100-1000 Hz), and F3 (10-100 Hz) . It provides simultaneous output connections for recorders and oscilloscopes.

Filter Selections and Signal Outputs

The F1 setting covers a broad frequency range for general vibration analysis across most machine types . The F2 range focuses on higher frequency components, useful for bearing and gear fault detection . The F3 range targets low-frequency vibrations, important for rotor imbalance and foundation issues . The unit provides recorder output for chart recorders and oscilloscope output for waveform analysis.

Application Use

Maintenance engineers and reliability technicians use this meter in field monitoring of large rotating equipment. It enables quick checks of overall vibration and helps to detect developing faults. Users rely on the TK81 for periodic route-based data collection programs. The meter’s mobility allows easy transport between multiple machine locations in a plant. Its robust construction suits industrial environments.
