3.1 About DUV40A
The DUV40A is a vibration monitoring system for continuous frequency-selective mon-
itoring. With 2 integrated signals and up to 3 connected signals, further measured val-
ues can be detected, recorded, and analyzed. After the analysis and depending on
user-defined alarm limits, the system can switch outputs and display the state using
LEDs.
To allow integration into a higher-level system, inputs are available via which addi-
tional signals are recorded. These signals can be used as reference values for signal
analysis e.g. to trigger time or event-based measuring tasks.
The DUV40A allows you to cover a large number of applications. Configure the
DUV40A according to your application using the integrated web application and
SmartWeb software. Several DUV40A devices can be combined in one network. Re-
gardless of the number of devices, administration takes place centrally on a PC
equipped with the SmartUtility software.
With the DUV40A SEW‑EURODRIVE offers condition monitoring optimized for your
requirements.
The device is ready for measuring as soon as DUV40A is connected to the supply
voltage. To ensure an optimal vibration monitoring start the DUV40A only after the fol-
lowing steps are complete:
• All the components are connected correctly.
• The monitored machine is in a normal operating state.
3.2 Designated use
DUV40A is designated for the following purposes.
• For the collection and analysis of vibration measurement signals.
• For the detection of temperature signals.
• For the evaluation of incoming signals.
DUV40A may be operated only within the application limits specified in the technical
data.
Analysis of measured values as well as changes to the settings may be performed
only using the software SmartUtility light included in the delivery, the optionally pur-
chased software SmartUtility, the integrated software SmartWeb or directly at the
device, if possible.
Any other way of using the product exceeds the designated use and the user bears
the risk caused by such use. The user is responsible for observing the designated
use, this includes observing the manual.
INFORMATION
DUV40A must not be used for safety-relevant tasks or critical switching operations.
This especially applies if these tasks or switching operations are safety relevant to
prevent death or injury.
DUV40A is included in plants as system for permanent machine monitoring.
For installation in the plant, connection to plant components, and plant operation you
must not exceed the specified values stated in this manual. Observe chapter "Tech-
nical data"(→229).
