The Kistler 8810 K-Guard® vibration switch is a stand-alone electronic vibration monitoring device that guards machinery against excessive vibration levels caused by imbalance, misalignment, looseness, worn bearings, etc. When high vibration levels are detected, a relay is activated that can be used for machine shutdown or to warn the operator of potential danger. Unlike mechanical switches, the 8810 features high accuracy, reliability and protects against false triggering.

The K-Guard is mounted directly on the desired measurement point of the machine to me monitored. The small size makes installation possible in tight places on most types of industrial machinery. Outputs are provided that will interface with virtually all types of controls and annuciator. A mechanical relay, used to activate the external circuitry, eliminates the interface problems associated with solid state relays and permits the switching of either AC or DC power.
