Emerson AMS 2140 Mechanical Health™ Analyser Advantage

The Four-Channel Advantage

While the AMS 2140 is available in single and dual channel

options, it is the four-channel option that delivers the most

advantages to a predictive maintenance program. The

AMS 2140 is one of the fastest collectors in the industry

when collecting a measurement point. With four-channel

capabilities, speed through the data collection route is

increased even more. And unlike other four-channel units

on the market, the AMS 2140 delivers all four channels

when you need them the most – critical equipment startup

and troubleshooting diagnostics.

Monitor More Machines in Less Time Using True

Four-Channel. Using a triaxial accelerometer, the AMS

2140 simultaneously collects vertical, horizontal, and

axial readings on a bearing. Place the sensor on the

measurement point, press the button, and when collection

is complete move on to the next bearing. Data collection

time is reduced by as much as 50% compared to other

vibration collectors. Faster data collection translates into

less time in harsh or hazardous environments, more

machines monitored, and more time dedicated to higher

value tasks like analysis and diagnostics.

Four-Channel Data Collection Enables Powerful

Diagnostic Options. Perform additional advanced

diagnostics and deeper dive diagnostic tests using four

channel collection. With four-channel monitoring, you

will gain additional data and diagnostic tools to help

you identify the root cause of your toughest equipment

problems. For example,

• View dual orbit plots, one on either side of the coupling

or dual orbit plots of both sleeve bearings on a turbine,

fan, or other production asset to see how the shaft is

moving in relation to the bearing races.

• Collect ODS Modal data 66% faster to animate

physical movement of machinery, an important tool

in identifying the root cause of chronic or complex

machinery problems.

Having the information you need for advanced diagnostics

faster allows you to move more quickly towards identifying

machinery faults or determining if it is safe to continue

startup of turbo machinery.
