Castle VK042 Vibration Meter - Acceleration, 3 Axis

The control of vibration at work regulations 2005 state that all companies must assess the risk of employee’s exposure to hand-transmitted and whole-body vibration from power tools, ride-on machinery and other operations involving vibration. The Castle VibA(8) is dedicated to this task and is simple to use with auto-detection feature for each sensor fitted. Measured results can be downloaded into the Free VibDataLITE software for download, storage and analysis of results.
