Metrix HI 813 Deluxe Hardy Shaker HI 813-CE

Metrix HI 813 Deluxe Hardy Shaker HI 813-CE

The Hardy Shaker ensures that the Seismic Sensors and Transmitters that you have installed are working properly and giving you the results you need.  Just like the pressure and flow instruments in your facility need calibration checks every year, so do your Seismic Sensors and Transmitters.  This system puts the calibration check of those Seismic Sensors and Transmitters within your control, and within your budget. 

The most cost effective maintenance strategy is a predictive and proactive strategy, versus a preventative maintenance or run-to-failure strategy.  The entire premise of a predictive and proactive maintenance program is based on the reliability and integrity of the transducers providing the information in a timely way.  If the Seismic transducers are not working properly, you will not receive the value you are expecting in order to produce the return on investment that you have already made.  The Hardy Shaker is a necessary tool to ensure your proactive maintenance strategy is effective.

Overview

Model: HI813

Used for testing from 25 to 10,000 Hz, the Hardy HI 813 Shaker offers adjustable frequency and adjustable vibration level. This provides a reference source for verifying the accuracy of vibration transducers, connectors, cabling and instruments or instrumentation systems. To find intermittent cables or loose connections, testing in the frequency range of 500 Hz to 2,000 Hz is usually required. The HI 813 has a ruggedized suspension system that can support heavy transducers (up to 750 grams) that require testing in a horizontal direction, instead of the normal vertical direction. This added support makes this shaker a good choice for heavy duty field use. The HI 813 has a built-in battery charger that can operate on 120 or 240 VAC.

Product Aprox. Weight: 8.6 kg (19 lbs)

HI 803/813 portable vibration shakers are designed to be used in the field or shop to verify the performance of vibration transducers, connectors, cabling, instruments or permanently installed condition monitoring systems. Both models are battery-powered, portable and feature a built-in reference accelerometer and indicator with calibration traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

These shakers can easily check velocity transducers, accelerometers and non-contacting Eddy Probe displacement measurement systems.

Simply attach the transducer to the shaker head (displacement probes require a mounting fixture and target), set the shaker to a known vibration reference level, and verify readings. The reference test level can be set in acceleration, velocity, or displacement, English or Metric.
