High-speed Cameras for Vibration Analysis
Chronos high-speed camera systems offer the high-resolution and frame-rates that Vibration Analysis applications demand. When paired with measurement software, users can observe amplitude, intensity and frequency to gain valuable insight into equipment safety. Vibration Analysis companies around the world rely on Chronos cameras to observe their projects.
Chronos all-in-one cameras are easy to setup in the field and pair well with vibration analysis software for motion magnification such as the WaveCam from gfai tech to provide an efficient, compact and versatile solution for predictive maintenance. The highly portable camera system features a 5” touchscreen display for quick positioning. Be up and running in minutes for vibration event capture and analysis.
The affordability of the Chronos system allows a team of users to have their own system and not need to share one. This allows for responsive maintenance in a fast-paced environment where downtime can cause significant cost overrun.
Chronos cameras ship fast and have ongoing customer technical support to ensure you have what you need, when you need it.
Applications

- Detect and monitor problem areas for correction.
- Preemptively assess areas of concern before they become hazards.
- Establish testing protocol to ensure that installation/repairs criteria are met.
- Condition-based maintenance
- Motion Magnification
Some things to consider when choosing a high-speed camera for vibration analysis are:
Frame-rate
What is the duration and speed of the event?
Chronos range from 1,000 - 40,000 FPS / 3-16 seconds of record time.
Resolution
What is the level of detail required to capture the event?
Chronos range from 1280x1024 to 1920x1080HD max resolution.
Light Sensitivity
What is the trigger required to capture the event?
What is the lighting sensitivity/contrast required to capture the event?
Chronos range from ISO 320-16,000 depending upon model and sensor type (color or monochrome).
Subject Matter
What is the size and distance from the subject?
Chronos offers a selection of lenses from leading manufacturers to capture events near or far.
