Fluke 805 vibration meter
The Fluke 805 is a handheld measuring instrument for troubleshooting machinery where you want to quickly and consistently assess vibrations and bearing condition. It is typically used as a screening tool in daily mechanical maintenance to determine whether a machine is operating normally or if there are signs of incipient problems.
The instrument measures overall vibration in the 10 Hz to 1,000 Hz range and simultaneously uses Crest Factor+ to assess bearing condition at high frequencies. In practice, this means you get both a picture of the general vibration load and a more targeted assessment of bearings. Measurement results can be displayed as acceleration, velocity, and displacement, so the same measurement can be used in different types of maintenance and compared with how you normally work.
In addition, there is a Spot IR temperature sensor in the instrument. It provides a non-contact temperature measurement from -20 °C to 200 °C, allowing you to take the temperature at a measurement point simultaneously with the vibration check. This is useful when you want to get more indicators of the machine's condition without changing instruments.
The Fluke 805 can store up to 3,500 measurements in its internal memory, and data can be transferred via USB 2.0. This makes it easier to follow developments over time and work with trend measurements in Excel. In practice, it is an advantage when you want to see if vibrations are gradually changing, rather than just assessing a single measurement point.
This is therefore a relevant choice when the task is routine condition monitoring on rotating machinery, pumps, fans, gearboxes and similar equipment, where vibrations and bearing condition are some of the first things to keep an eye on.
