Countersink bit - VIB 8.610
The measurement location may not always be ideal for
your vibration or bearing measurements. If the best avai-
lable measurement location has a curved surface,
PRÜFTECHNIK's countersink bit VIB 8.610 can help to
prepare the measurement location surface for measure-
ment. The countersink produces a hole smaller than the
VIBTOOL vibration and shock pulse sensor. A ring-shaped
contact area is, therefore, created between the sensor and
the measurement surface, providing the best transmission
of signal.
Procedure:
1. Clean and then mark the exact measurement location
required.
2. Drill with a battery operated screwdriver until the rim of
the countersink is level with the measurement surface.
3. Blow any shavings out of the hole with compressed air
(using a thin hose or tube). Make sure that the hole is
completely free of metal particles which could otherwise
contact the VIBTOOL sensor and interfere with proper
signal transmission.
Here, a ring-shaped contact area
is created between VIBTOOL and
the countersunk hole.
