VIBCONNECT RF 11.2011
Sensor unit with two 
sensors, for vibration  
and temperature measu-
rement respectively.
System description
*xxx = 50, 60, 100, 120 
(frequency range in Hz)
4.2 VIBCONNECT RF sensor unit
The sensor unit is the transmitter and receiver unit attached to the 
machine. Each sensor unit comes with one or two connected sensors 
for the simultaneous measurement of vibration and temperature. By 
separating the sensors from the radio unit, it is possible to position 
the components in the most suitable locations on the machine. For 
sensors, these are the points with the highest signal level. For the sen-
sor unit (transmitter / receiver), it is the point of best radio reception.
The sensor unit receives the measuring tasks from the bridge and 
performs them by means of the connected sensors. For vibration 
measurements, only the related time signal is recorded (see also 
“Detailed description of function”, page 19). For each measuring 
point, up to four vibration measurements and one temperature 
measurement can be configured.
The sensor unit can be powered from three different sources:
•  Battery 
•  24 VDC
•  Energy harvester
Battery
The VIB 7.200-FBU / VIB 7.200-NBU 
sensor units are powered by two 
lithium batteries. The battery charge 
level is automatically signalled to the 
bridge at each measurement trans-
fer and displayed in OMNITREND. 
If a battery needs to be changed, a warning is displayed when the 
software is started.
The batteries are not included in the scope of delivery and must be 
purchased separately.
Battery type: 3.6 V lithium, size C (e.g.. Tadrian, type: SL-2770)
24 VDC
For VIB 7.200-FVU / VIB 7.200-NVU sensor units, the system opera-
tor must provide a 24 VDC power connection at the location of 
installation.
Energy harvester
For VIB 7.200-FHU / VIB 7.200-NHU sensor units, the operator 
must install an energy harvester (VIB 7.210-xxx*) that converts the 
vibration energy of the machine into electric power. This can only 
be done, if the machine speed is constant and within the useful 
frequency range of the energy harvester.
