2. GENERAL PRESENTATION
2.1. INTRODUCTION
ORION is a new generation upgradeable vibration measuring instrument, integrating innovative
technology. The programming of all available functions (Input / Output / Storage…) allows meeting
best the user’s requirements.
The data measured with the instrument are displayed on a remote screen, such as a tablet,
smartphone or laptop, using an off-the-shelf networked device equipped with Wi-Fi or 3G
connectivity and a web browser, in conjunction with the web interface, the web server built into the
instrument. This function offers access to all the functions of the instrument (measurement and
system configuration, real-time display…).
A status bar visible on the web interface gives the operator a quick overview of the device status and
the current measurement. At any time, the user can access more detailed information looking at the
different menus available. For instance, the user is informed about the remaining battery lifetime
(depending on parameters of the selected configuration), disk space available etc.
The integrated Ethernet, Wi-Fi and 3G communication features give the user complete control of the
instrument (configuration, real-time values, stored data…), with equal ease adjacent to the
measurement point (a few dozen meters away using point-to-point Wi-Fi) and at a distance (3G).
Hence, the interest for simultaneous measurement in several points and as a result getting fully
synchronised and geo-referenced results using several instruments with built-in GPS component
and external antenna or patch.
2.2. MEASUREMENT DOMAINS
Vibrations on buildings: e.g. damage caused on a building site by a neighbour
Vibrations on occupants: e.g. vibrations near a railway
Vibrations on sensitive equipment: e.g. work in the museum neighbourhood or sensitive
computers.
The evaluation of vibration is based on velocity or acceleration acquisition on three axes X, Y, Z in
the band 0.4Hz-150 or 500Hz frequency. According to the standards of different countries, the
measured quantities are compared to tolerance curves whose values may differ depending on the
frequency.
