The PCE-VD 3 is a compact vibration data logger designed for 3-axis shock/vibration measurements via a built-in accelerometer sensor. It’s capable of recording 3-axis acceleration (X, Y, Z) vibration measurement data, useful for Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) waveform analysis. This device is particularly versatile due to its lightweight design and includes a magnetic/wall-mounting bracket for easy placement in various monitoring situations, including shipping, machine operation, and more.
