 B&K 2250   Sound and Vibration Meter and Analyzer £ 30 a day * 

B&K 2250 Hand Held Vibration Meter The B&K 2250 Sound Analyzer is also a Vibration Meter if you add an accelerometer set.

  The 2250 hand held meter has built-in engineering units so you can read directly in vibration units.
  All our 2250s also include the BZ 7223 Frequency Software for vibration analysis in real time.
  For narrow band noise and vibration analysis see the BZ 7230 FFT
     Fast Fourier Transform version, detailed below.
  Vibration monitoring is also included using the BZ 7226 Recording/Signal Capture feature to SD Card.

Delivered with an input adaptor and a B&K 4370 general purpose accelerometer set, or a Metra KS76 IEPE set unless you select an alternative from the same list.

We recommend you add a B&K 4294 Calibrator Exciter, it provides a stable acceleration of 10 m/s2 at 159 Hz.

 B&K 2250   Sound and Vibration Analysis Meter with FFT Option £ 37 a day * 

B&K FFT Vibration Meter for Hire Vibration analysis based on the FFT - Fast Fourier Transform Glossary algorithm is the tool of choice for measurement and diagnostics of machinery noise and vibration. The frequency 'profile' of a machine is its fingerprint, revealing its sources of noise and vibration and their paths to the measurement position.

The 2250 vibration analyser with the BZ 7230 FFT software has many narrow band features :-
  Real time operation [no loss of data] up to 20 kHz.
  100 up to 6400 lines giving a resolution down to 16 mHz
  Linear and exponential averagingGlossary
  Signal capture and recording
  Engineering units, SI metric and UK imperial units
  Acceleration, velocity, displacement .......

Plus Max hold, spectrum overlay, zoom, tachometer function, trigger, transient and continuous signals, RMS, PWR, PSD, ESD, Peak, P-P ...... etc., software also included for analysis, reporting and downloading to a PC.

Delivered with an input adaptor and a B&K 4370 general purpose accelerometer set, or a Metra KS76 ICP set unless you select an alternative from the same list.

We recommend you add a B&K 4294 Calibrator, it provides a stable acceleration of 10 m/s2 at 159 Hz.

 DI 2200   Dual Channel FFT Analyser £ n/a * 

The DI 2200 has been withdrawn as the instrument can no longer be maintained. For FFT analysis please see the B&K 2250 FFT version. The following information is for reference purposes only.

FFT - Fast Fourier Transform vibration analyser ideal for vibration analysis and acoustic source definition if two or more discrete tones are inside the same 1/3-octave band.
  DC - 40 kHz in 10 ranges with engineering units and zoom
  FFT with up to 1600 lines resolution
  Memory card and RS-232 output to a serial printer, PC etc.,
  Frequency, Time Domain, Transfer Function measurements etc.
  DC or AC coupled voltage inputs, plus IEPE accelerometer connection - both channels
  Small battery operated

Plug the DI-2200 into the analogue output of a suitable sound level meter or connect one or more accelerometers into the analyser IEPE inputs - see the Metra Ks76 below.
