Vibration protection

When a machine is exposed to severe vibrations, it is crucial to act quickly. Severe vibrations can cause damage to a machine, possibly resulting in damage to people and the environment. By means of using the right protection system it can be ensured that a machine automatically trips when a predetermined vibration value is reached.
