Calibration of PCE-VC21 vibration meter
For acceleration, velocity and displacement vibrations / Adjustable vibration frequencies and amplitudes (RMS)
The PCE-VC21 is a vibration meter calibrator used for calibrating sensors, meters, analyzers, and vibration controllers. Suitable for calibrating equipment weighing up to 600 g (1.32 lb), this vibration calibrator produces mechanical vibrations (stabilized by quartz) with adjustable frequencies between 15.92 and 1280 Hz and adjustable vibration amplitudes between 1 m/s² and 20 m/s².
The PCE-VC21 features load-independent:
- 7 adjustable vibration frequencies
- 5 adjustable vibration amplitudes
The vibration calibrator offers portable use as it has a built-in rechargeable battery, automatic shutdown function to save battery, and battery charge indicator. Additionally, the calibrator is enclosed in a sturdy case for safe transport.
- Adjustable vibration frequencies and amplitudes (RMS)- The display shows frequency, amplitude, error percentage (%) and date of last calibration
- Emits a sound alert if the error limit is exceeded
- Designed for use in the laboratory as well as for portable use
