HiDACHiDACHiDACHiDAC----8888 is an intelligent portable dual-

channel data collection and analysis platform

with 2-plane field balancing capability built

specifically for using with VAMOSVAMOSVAMOSVAMOS 5555....00000000

Machinery Management software platform.

This portable data collection and analysis

system features twotwotwotwo fully functional channels

and a third channel for phase and speed input.

At less than 1.5 kg, it is also one of the lightest

and easiest to use portable data collection

tools on the market. It is based on Windows

CE 6.0 operating system and has many

analysis features and options make it the only

needed device for successful Condition

Monitoring based programs. The large storage

capacity of the device make it capable of

storing huge amount of machinery data

without concern about data loss.

HiDACHiDACHiDACHiDAC----8888 features 256MB program memory and 1GB onboard storage

memory. In addition, an SD ram can be used to increase the storage memory up

to any available size such as 8GB or even more. This allows saving of huge

amounts of machinery information and analyses data for long periods of time

without loss and without the need to download data to a host computer.

However, the host computer provides more analysis techniques through

VAMOSVAMOSVAMOSVAMOS 5555....00000000 Machinery Management Platform.

Signals as weak as 10 µV can be measured at high accuracy due to device multi-

stage programmable amplifiers and filters. The device is fully auto-range capable

with very fast settling time due to adoption of inteli-boost technology. The 4-inclear, high contrast display provides very clear view even in intensive lighting

conditions. The device can be handheld for normal open area measurements or

through a protection bag for dangerous and harsh environment measurement.

The device is capable of connecting to any host, whether it is local or remote,

to download and upload machinery data and reports. It is provided with

Bluetooth® and Wireless LAN Connections to achieve this functionality.

vibration signals that

vary with the speed or

time as the machine

speed goes up or down.

One of the most

common applications is

detecting resonance

related problems in rotors and structures. Not only the

resonance frequency can be detected, but also the order at

which it occurs. The proposed device can perform these

tests and display the results as Bode, Nyquist, FFT waterfall

and Spectrogram.

TransientTransientTransientTransient AnalysisAnalysisAnalysisAnalysis is similar in someway to startup and

shutdown analysis but the collection time is very short. It is

useful to collect data for transient phenomena for example

to identify resonance frequency or to estimate Frequency

and solve balancing problems onsite

and without the need to dismantle the

machine. This is useful especially for

large turbines and cooling towers fans

where correction can be done locally.

HiDAC-8 offers Single and dual plane

balancing facilities with options to

calculate unbalance in the presence or

absence of trial masses. Not only the

localized masses are determined, but also split masses and

equivalent static/couple. Balancing options, vibration data,

correction masses and influence coefficient can be saved for

future review and update.

MachineryMachineryMachineryMachinery DataDataDataData can be loaded/unloaded to HiDAC-8

through a PC host. The collected data can then be

downloaded to the PC for long-term saving and/or

further analysis and diagnosis using VAMOS 5.00

machinery platform. Furthermore, machinery data can be

defined and added through HiDAC-8.

HiDAC-8 provides the ability to sample the two

channels in addition to the reference signal to obtain the

exact (not relative) orbital movement of a rotor.
