The portable CSI 2140 Machinery Health Analyze​r by Emerson Process Management, which diagnoses and corrects faults in rotating equipment, has been updated to include a wireless interface to laser shaft alignment fixtures. This addition reduces two burdens — equipment and time — for operators performing vibration analysis and corrective tasks in the field.

The analyser already offers four-channel plus phase data collection to save time and effort for technicians, advanced vibration analysis that embeds expertise in the tool and multiplane balancing to correct imbalance in industrial fans. By adding a wireless link to laser fixtures, users can perform route-based vibration data collection, analyse the root cause and align the machine in one trip. At the same time, users can identify and solve machinery faults to prevent any unplanned downtime.

The device’s shaft alignment option uses the familiar Emerson interface to guide technicians through a three-step process that quickly achieves precision alignment. The laser fixtures employ Sweep technology to measure misalignment, including in tight clearance applications. An advanced option monitors the corrective machine moves in vertical and horizontal directions simultaneously.

All data collected with the product can be uploaded wirelessly to a single database using the AMS Suite: Machinery Health Manager software. This enables the maintenance team to collect data, analyse problems and document results in parallel.
