Vibration Monitoring

ISTEC VIBSYS · CONDITION MONITORING

Stop guessing which machine fails next.

An unplanned stop costs more than the bearing that caused it. Fit Istec VibSys to the machines that matter and watch the vibration trend instead of waiting for the breakdown.

One compact DIN-rail unit takes four IEPE sensors, works out the values on the device and passes them to your PLC or to Istec Sphere. OEM NORDIC supplies it as an official Istec distributor – units, sensors, cables and Sphere from one source.

Pick the machine you worry about most

Every guide below has a 3D walkthrough or a plain explanation of what vibration tells you on that machine.

Why plants choose VibSys

Four channels, one box

Four time-synchronised IEPE inputs per unit – enough for both bearings of a machine and its driver.

Your sensors, your choice

Compatible 2-wire IEPE accelerometers from any brand work. You are not tied to Istec sensors.

Values computed on the device

Up to 32 predefined extractions per channel are calculated in the unit, then sent on by Modbus TCP or to Istec Sphere over HTTPS.

Local signals when you need them

Two relay outputs and four 4–20 mA outputs hand alarms and trend values straight to your control system.

Quick answers

Is VibSys machinery protection?

No. VibSys is for condition monitoring, trending and diagnostics. Trip, shutdown and safety functions stay on systems designed for them.

Who makes VibSys?

Istec develops and manufactures it. OEM NORDIC, a business name of MK-Controls Oy, is an official Istec distributor in Finland.

Can I begin with one unit?

Yes. Buy one unit in the webshop. For several units or a full system with sensors and cables, request a quote.

Do I need anything besides the unit?

IEPE sensors, cables and mounting accessories. Cloud analysis in Istec Sphere needs a Sphere subscription, which is quoted separately.

Firmware: current VibSys units ship with A01 firmware. The upcoming M40 firmware adds more functions through a normal firmware update – Istec has informed that the hardware stays the same.
