The Allen-Bradley XM-720 Machine Vibration Monitor is designed to deliver cost-effective monitoring and protection of critical plant-floor assets, while providing manufacturers with a scaleable, packaged solution that can be easily integrated into a plant’s control and information system.
Intended for monitoring machinery requiring continuous online monitoring, such as motors, fans, pumps and blowers, the XM-720 monitor includes a measurement module, three relays, a front panel display and power supply in a compact package. It is configurable for operation as a stand-alone module or for deployment on an open standard industrial bus. The modular and open design of the vendor’s XM machine condition monitoring and protection technology allows users to expand the XM-720 to include other modules or to link the device into a broader system.
