Vibration Sensors for Monitoring Power Plant Machines – VibraSens

Power plants rely on heavy machinery such as turbines, generators, boilers, and pumps, which operate under extreme conditions. Any failure in these machines can lead to costly downtime, reduced efficiency, and safety hazards.

VibraSens provides high-precision vibration sensors designed to monitor and protect these critical assets by detecting early signs of mechanical failures.

How VibraSens Vibration Sensors Help in Power Plants

1. Early Fault Detection

• Continuous real-time monitoring of vibration levels.

• Detects bearing wear, misalignment, unbalance, and looseness before failure occurs.

2. Increased Efficiency & Reduced Downtime

• Helps implement predictive maintenance instead of costly reactive repairs.

• Reduces unplanned shutdowns, ensuring continuous power generation.

3. Monitoring Critical Power Plant Equipment

VibraSens sensors are used in:
✅ Turbines – Detects rotor imbalances and misalignment.
✅ Generators – Identifies bearing faults and resonance issues.
✅ Pumps & Compressors – Prevents cavitation and wear-related failures.
✅ Cooling Fans & Blowers – Ensures smooth operation and efficiency.

Typical power plant applications where vibration monitoring solutions are used include

• Blowers, compressors, cooling towers
• Fans – forced draft and induced draft
• Hydro turbines (low frequency)
• Motors, nuclear machinery, pumps
