VCM Rack Mount Solutions
Overview
VCM Rack Mounts offer easy integration with other monitoring equipment. This option comes with the ability to monitor 1,2,3 or 4 separate units in one enclosure. The rack mount version with VCM-E circuitry, will fit into any standard 19" rack. The VCM-E circuitry allows continuous monitoring of your rotating machinery(s) shaft both locally (LCD display) and remotely (4-20 mA outputs) of Peak and Average Current and Peak Voltage. With the multi-configurable options, it is like having up to 4 separate VCM-E's in one enclosure.
