Mitech MV800C Portable Vibration Meter

Mitech MV800C Portable Vibration Meter

Product Overview

The Mitech MV800C is a portable vibration meter designed for accurate, real-time analysis of mechanical vibrations in industrial and rotating machinery. By combining a high-sensitivity piezoelectric accelerometer with a digital display, it allows users to easily measure vibration acceleration, velocity, and displacement on-site. Its compact, lightweight design enhances portability, making it ideal for field diagnostics, predictive maintenance, and high-altitude equipment inspections.

This device helps maintenance teams quickly assess equipment health and identify potential issues in motors, bearings, fans, pumps, and gearboxes, ensuring machinery reliability and reducing downtime.

Operating Principle

The MV800C operates on the piezoelectric principle. When the built-in sensor experiences vibration, it generates an electric charge. This signal is amplified, filtered, and converted into digital values corresponding to vibration acceleration, velocity, or displacement, which are displayed on the LCD screen.

Usage Tips

• Maintain consistent probe pressure between 5N and 10N for accurate results

• Use the correct angle and contact position when placing the probe

• Avoid using pliers or force when inserting/removing probes to prevent damage

• For high-frequency vibration detection, ensure compatibility with probe type

• Acceleration readings are typically limited to 50 m/s² due to contact sensitivity

Maintenance and Storage

• Use the protective rubber sheath when not in operation

• Replace batteries promptly; remove them if storing the device for long periods

• Clean with a soft, dry cloth; avoid exposure to oil, water, and corrosive chemicals

• Do not disassemble the unit. For issues or servicing, contact the manufacturer or authorized service provider

The Mitech MV800C is a trusted tool for maintenance engineers and technicians needing a reliable, precise, and easy-to-use vibration analysis device for both preventive and diagnostic tasks.
