A standard horizontal laser alignment system designed with "simplicity for the user" in mind. It can be downloaded to a PC or output directly to a printer. Includes EasyLink software for Windows® for archiving test data, alignment setups & maintenance periodicities
Complete with FREE EasyLink™ software for documentation and reports, built in Tolerance Tables to help you align to your specifications, and Thermal Growth Compensation. A must have tool for accurate shaft alignment.
The D480 is the best value-added system:
- EasyTurn™ - only 40° of rotation required to align
- Includes several professional-level programs / features
- Offers the most functionality at an entry-level price
- Rugged industrial anodized aluminum display unit has a clear, backlit LCD display for easy reading even in poor light conditions
- Dual laser measuring units with integral clear spirit levels for quick, accurate positioning are affixed on either side of shaft coupling, and held in position with dual stainless steel rods, shaft brackets & chains, accommodating shafts 3/4" to 9.44" in diameter
- Durable membrane keyboard with all alphanumeric characters allows operator to intuitively control alignment, plus enter individual machinery identification & test information
- Internal memory for up to 1000 shaft alignments
- You can also check straightness and twist on the machine base
- Clearly Displayed Results: Shows Offset, Angular, and Shim / Adjustment values. Both horizontal & vertical values are shown “live”, making it much easier to adjust the machine
A. Offset value.
B. Angular value.
C. Shim/Adjustment values. Live direction indicated by filled machine feet symbols.
D. Tolerance settings display. Select speed range.
E. Filled coupling symbols, indicating that alignment is within tolerance.
- Downloads to PC or output directly to a printer & include EasyLink software for Windows® for archiving test data, alignment setups & maintenance periodicities
Motor/Pump Alignment is as Easy as 1-2-3 In HORIZONTAL mode, user rotates shaft with new Easyturn Technology & takes readings. The result is displayed with shim and adjustment values.
PROGRAMS AND FUNCTIONS
- HORIZONTAL – For the alignment of horizontal machines by the 9–12–3 method.
- SOFT FOOT – With this program you can check that the machine is resting on all its feet. Shows which foot should be corrected (if necessary).
- THERMAL GROWTH COMPENSATION – Compensates for difference in thermal growth between machines. Sub-function.
- TOLERANCE CHECK – Checks the offset and angle values in relation to selected tolerance. Shows graphically when the alignment is within tolerance. Sub-function.
- MEASUREMENT VALUE FILTER– Advanced electronic filter for accurate results even in poor measuring conditions such as air turbulence and high vibration. Sub-function.
- EASY TURN – For the alignment of horizontal machines. Allows complete measurement with only 40° rotation of the shafts.
- CARDIAN – Shows angular errors and adjustment value on cardan-shaftcoupled/ centre-offset machines. (Requires accessory fixtures.)
- VERTICAL – For measurement of vertical and flange-mounted machines.
- MACHINE TRAIN – For the alignment of between two and ten machines in line (nine couplings). The entire alignment can be followed live on the screen.
- REFLOCK – Any pair of feet can be locked/set as a reference. Sub-function.
- OFFSET AND ANGLE – Shows centre offset and angular error between two shafts, for example. Also suitable for dynamic measurements.
- VALUES – Shows live readings from S- and M-unit. Can be used for shaft alignment, straightness measurement and dynamic measurement. Up to four detectors can be connected in series and be zeroed individually.
- VIBROMETER – Shows vibration level in “mm/s” or “inch/s”, and bearing condition value in “g”. The measurement complies with vibration standard ISO10816-3. (Requires accessory Vibrometer probe D283.)
- BTA DIGITAL – For alignment of belt and chain drives. (Requires accessories BTA Digital transmitter and detector unit.)
