Advantages & Features
- High-Precision Vibration Measurement: Yokogawa VI-702 delivers 16-bit resolution and wide frequency response, enabling accurate detection of subtle vibration changes that indicate early-stage mechanical faults (e.g., bearing wear, misalignment, imbalance). Compliance with ISO 10816 ensures consistent, industry-standard measurement.
- Integrated Sensor Excitation & Conditioning: The module provides 24V DC excitation for ICP/IEPE accelerometers and built-in signal conditioning, eliminating the need for external amplifiers or signal converters. This simplifies wiring and reduces system complexity.
- Seamless Asset Health Integration: Yokogawa VI-702 connects directly to Yokogawa’s PRM software, enabling real-time vibration trend analysis, alarm notifications, and predictive maintenance scheduling. This integration transforms raw vibration data into actionable insights for equipment reliability teams.
- Robust Industrial Design: With wide temperature tolerance and vibration resistance, Yokogawa VI-702 operates reliably in harsh industrial environments, including motor control centers, pump stations, and turbine enclosures. Isolated channels prevent cross-talk and electromagnetic interference (EMI) from nearby equipment.
Application Fields & Cases
- Power Plant Turbine Vibration Monitoring: A combined-cycle power plant deployed Yokogawa VI-702 modules to monitor gas turbine vibration levels. The modules detected a 15% increase in bearing vibration (from 2.5 mm/s to 2.875 mm/s) weeks before a potential failure, allowing maintenance teams to schedule a planned outage and replace the bearing, avoiding a costly unplanned shutdown.
- Oil Refinery Pump Health Management: An oil refinery integrated Yokogawa VI-702 into its PRM system to monitor critical crude oil transfer pumps. The module’s high-resolution measurement identified impeller imbalance in one pump, triggering an alarm before the imbalance caused seal damage or pump seizure.
- Manufacturing Plant Motor Protection: A automotive manufacturing plant used Yokogawa VI-702 to monitor vibration in production line motors. The module’s frequency response (0.1 Hz to 10 kHz) detected gearbox wear in a conveyor motor, enabling proactive replacement and preventing a production line outage that would have cost $50,000/hour in downtime.

Selection Suggestions & Precautions
- Selection Suggestions: Yokogawa VI-702 is ideal for Yokogawa Centum VP/PRM users implementing predictive maintenance programs for rotating machinery. For applications requiring 8 channels, Yokogawa VI-704 is recommended. Users with Bently Nevada systems may prefer the 3500/42M for native integration.
- Precautions:
- Use shielded twisted-pair cables for sensor wiring to minimize EMI and ensure accurate vibration measurement.
- Calibrate sensors and modules annually (per ISO 10816 guidelines) to maintain measurement accuracy.
- Configure alarm thresholds based on equipment type (e.g., pumps vs. turbines) and ISO 10816 severity levels to avoid false alarms.
- Ensure proper grounding of the module and sensors to prevent ground loops, which can distort vibration signals.
- Verify sensor excitation voltage (24V DC for ICP/IEPE) matches Yokogawa VI-702 output to avoid sensor damage.
