B&K VB‑430 C002292.01 / 9100131600 Vibration Monitoring Module

The B&K VB‑430 (C002292.01, 9100131600) is a rack‑mount vibration monitoring module used for rotating machinery protection systems. It accepts input signals from proximity probes and velocity sensors, performs real‑time vibration amplitude measurement, alarm comparison and condition monitoring for turbines, compressors and large rotating equipment.

This plug‑in monitoring unit provides configurable alarm and trip threshold outputs for machinery protection logic. It supports local status indication and data communication to upper monitoring host, designed for long‑term reliable operation inside power plant and petrochemical machinery protection cabinets.
