http://bit.ly/2O9CRZV

In this video, see how real Fluke customers are using the new Fluke 805 FC Vibration Meter.

Make go or no-go maintenance decisions with confidence. The Fluke 805 Vibration Meter is the most reliable vibration screening device available for frontline mechanical troubleshooting teams that need repeatable, severity-scaled readings of overall vibration and bearing condition.

What Makes the Fluke 805 FC Vibration Meter the Best Choice?

A meter – not a pen – that measures overall vibration as well as specific variables like bearing condition and temperature, to provide a more complete picture

A combination vibration and force sensor tip that compensates for user variance (force or angle) yielding accurate, repeatable readings

A four-level severity scale and onboard processor calculate bearing condition and overall vibration using easy-to-understand textual alerts (Good, Satisfactory, Unsatisfactory, Unacceptable)

Sensor sensitivity can read a wide range of frequencies (10 to 1,000 Hz and 4,000 to 20,000 Hz) covering most machine and component types

Straight-forward user interface that minimizes the user inputs to RPM range and equipment type.

Some useful features include:

• Measures overall vibration (10 Hz to 1,000 Hz) for acceleration, velocity, and displacement units of measurement for a wide variety of machines

• Provides Crest Factor+ technology for reliable bearing assessment using direct sensor tip measurements between 4,000 Hz and 20,000 Hz

• Compares vibration levels with ISO-10816 severity scales and stores results to the Fluke Connect Cloud

• Features colored lighting system (green, red) and on-screen comments to indicate how much pressure needs to be applied to take measurements
• Measures temperature with Spot IR Sensor to increase diagnostic capabilities

• Holds and saves up to 3,500 measurements in on-board memory
