Whether for motor, drive or conveyor technology, Turck's easy to retrofit CMVT-M8T vibration sensor detects conspicuous vibration patterns and thus prevents failures

Vibration Sensor Monitors Drives

Turck's CMVT-M8T single-axis condition monitoring sensor enables efficient vibration monitoring – easy to install and retrofit

Turck's CMVT-M8T in a compact stainless steel housing uses vibration measurement to monitor the condition of motors and drives. With single-axis measurement, easy installation in the service bore via M8 screw-in thread including mounting adapter up to M30 and three selectable output signals, the sensor ensures precise vibration monitoring with minimum installation effort.

Flexible integration saves costs

The CMVT-M8T detects vibrations along one axis and is therefore suitable for typical applications on drives, pumps or fans where the main direction of vibration is orthogonal to the axis of rotation. With IO-Link, PNP switching and 4...20 mA analog outputs, the condition monitoring sensor can be used universally and thus effectively reduces inventory costs. The measuring accuracy is ±0.5 % at 159.2 Hz. The sensor also provides peak acceleration values in addition to effective values (RMS).

Your Benefits

Easy installation thanks to M8 screw-in thread
High scalability due to adjustable frequency range
Ideal for new equipment and retrofitting existing machines
Machine monitoring without any control integration thanks to internal data pre-processing

Standalone monitoring made easy

The device can also be commissioned without a connection to a controller using the Vibration Monitor app in the Turck Automation Suite (TAS) or via an IO-Link master with a web server. In combination with a warning light, autonomous condition monitoring systems can easily be set up without a controller, which is particularly useful in existing systems. The sensor complies with ISO standard 10816-3 for the entry of critical vibration values.

Condition monitoring sensor family

The new 1-axis sensor is the fourth sensor type developed by Turck specifically for easy-to-use and retrofittable condition monitoring applications. It extends the existing range consisting of the CMVT-QR20 3-axis vibration/temperature sensor, the CMMT magnetic field/temperature sensor and the CMTH for humidity and temperature measurements.
